[edit] Thanks for the Call-Net/Rogers Telecom changes

I knew that I was putting outdated information, but since Rogers didnt give info about the key people and public/private company, I just put old information until I got more. Your changes were well needed and tank you for changing them. TorontoStorm 13:53, July 21, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Spotlight Television, The Canadian Film Channel, etc.

To be perfectly honest, I'm not convinced that proposed networks should be getting Wikipedia articles, because then we run into a problem if they're not licensed. I really don't think that a new channel application should get an article until the CRTC approves its license. But I suppose you're free to differ in your opinion...

[edit] Thanks for restoring NPOV

The Thomson Corporation - (and that is definitely the name). The short-lived sentence you killed looked like what a bored gossip columnist might have written 30 years ago. Robin Patterson 21:45, 27 July 2005 (UTC)

Oh, btw, just so you don't think I'm nothing but a whining pest...great job on the A-Channel updates. Excellent idea to comment the changes in early. Bearcat 17:31, 28 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Royal Dutch Shell

Did you merge Royal Dutch Shell with Royal Dutch/Shell? --129.173.105.28 00:46, 29 July 2005 (UTC)

Please read this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Merging_and_moving_pages#Renaming_.28moving.29 . Never copy and paste a page to move it. There is a forum where you can get admins to do complicated moves. When in doubt seek help. --129.173.105.28 03:31, 31 July 2005 (UTC)
Thanks, will be more careful in future. Stickguy 04:39, 31 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] The Gazette

One question: are you absolutely certain that no other publication in the entire world uses the name The Gazette? Are you absolutely certain that a city name isn't needed in the title for disambiguation purposes? Unless you can definitively prove that to be the case, the article has to be titled either Montreal Gazette or The Gazette (Montreal). "Use the official name" is an important rule, but "disambiguate when necessary" trumps it. Bearcat 01:31, 7 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] FM/TV and the CBC

Yeah, I actually realize that...I just wasn't sure if it was best to go with "do it anyway to keep the naming format relatively consistent", or "stick with the canonical form even if the situation is confusing to people". I reluctantly decided to go with the former, but wouldn't particularly object to the latter. (Except that if we don't have a consistent rule, it may very well empower the "but nobody calls it CIVT; the title has to be Global BC" crowd.) Some kind of move still realistically had to happen, so ultimately they'll have to be at either CXXX-TV or CXXX (TV)...and even if we used (TV), policy would permit a redirect from the expected -TV format anyway, so it's not as though those would need to be deleted if you or I were to move the CBC sticks to (TV) instead.

FWIW, Wikipedia doesn't actually have a policy that the official name of something always trumps considerations such as common name or consistency of naming format within like categories; in fact, Wikipedia policy quite specifically subordinates official name to other considerations when there's a conflict. So, in reality, situations like this bring up some complex decision-making about how best to handle the specific circumstances -- "what the CRTC uses is automatically Wikipedia's title, case closed, no exceptions" simply isn't how Wikipedia works. The CRTC, for example, will never have to render a decision concerning the Chicago Board of Trade, so it doesn't need to disambiguate CBOT from anything. But we do, whether the CRTC uses a suffix in that instance or not. And I personally wouldn't be comfortable leaving most CBC stations at undisambiguated titles unless somebody can prove that nothing else in the world actually uses acronyms like CBAT, CBLT or CBST. I think it's better to prepare for that eventuality now, rather than set up potentially problematic situations in the future. But YMMV, I suppose. Bearcat 18:29, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

I don't think we're actually disagreeing as much as it may seem...I think the biggest real difference of opinion here has to do with how readily we can assume that the four-letter callsign without the TV or FM suffix is actually a unique name. If I do a Google search on CFTO, for instance, I do mostly get refs to the TV station, but there are a few cases of it being an acronym for something else. I'm not sure if those other things deserve their own encyclopedia articles or not, but I'm reluctant to assume that the undisambiguated title CFTO should be the TV station rather than a dab page.
The example I'm coming from is CKY. For the longest time, the article there was the TV station in Winnipeg, but then somebody blanked out the TV article in favour of a rock band that I'd never even heard of. They didn't even move the TV station to another title; they just erased it. I fixed the problem, but the thing is that I had originally written the article not even knowing that a dab page would be necessary. And because nobody had the page watchlisted, it sat for a couple of weeks without anybody noticing what had happened.
So, in reality, I'm just trying to avoid such a situation happening again. I'm probably just being unnecessarily cautious, I admit. I'm open to using a different format for the CBC stations that don't actually use the -TV suffix, but basically I'm just trying to make things as clear and straightforward and not-overly-confusing as possible.

[edit] CBOT

Just noticed your edit to CBOT. Thought I'd let you know that piping and excess wikilinks don't go on disambiguation pages. One wikilink per entry is appropriate. Wikipedia:Manual of Style (disambiguation pages) has more info, and I'm always happy to disucss disambiguation.--Commander Keane 23:33, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] List of CW affiliates

Have a look at the comment I added to the article. Do you think this will help in deterring unwarranted additions? More specifically, does this allow us to remove the bit near the beginning about how existing affiliation is not a guarantee and the technicalities of the deal don't make it automatic and yada yada yada, which seems more geared towards editors than general users? I can understand why general users would want to know that, but I had thought I had already added it (it happened on a day Wikipedia was having technical problems) and I want your opinion on whether it's sufficient deterrent.

[edit] The NBC Thing

To be honest, I can't remember why I did it.

If a history page of cable TV in the St. John's area was possible, we might be able to give my new info a new home.

I have a question: Should we add the information about Bell Globemedia intending to buy CHUM Limited to the CJON-TV page? MapleLeafFan04 23:34, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] License tagging for Image:Rcsswest.png

Thanks for uploading Image:Rcsswest.png. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 13:07, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Between a rock and a hard place (NTV)

It seems like NTV is in a no-win position should they drop CTV's newscasts for Global's. Considering there's three separate OTA stations in St. John's (one of which is a repeater), and both rival private networks end up doing what is mentioned in the article (both networks applying for their own stations), what would NTV do, if we assume the CRTC gives the green light for both networks, and St. John's could likely end up with five stations (and a crowded cable presence as nearly every channel from 2 to 62 and maybe beyond on the cable dial has been claimed)?—Preceding unsigned comment added by MapleLeafFan04 (talk • contribs)

[edit] List of flops in entertainment

Apropos of The One, you are, of course, altogether correct, and I am, to be sure, an idiot (or, at the very least, someone who ought not to edit when ridiculously tired). Thanks, in any case, for fixing my error...—Preceding unsigned comment added by Jahiegel (talk • contribs) 14:09, 23 August 2006

[edit] Network affiliate lists

After seeing you re-arrange the Fox affiliate list into "DMA style", I am working on an ABC affiliate list in DMA style on my sandbox. I copied and pasted the table from the Fox affiliate list, but I have added the ABC stations in the top 35 markets and some others in the Midwest. Feel free to add more stations to the list and replace the ABC affiliate list with the one in my sandbox when finished. I plan on making all of the network affiliate lists in DMA style eventually. --grejlen - talk 02:00, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Bragg Communications Inc.

I do agree with your Eastlink renaming . I will do a little more investigating on Bragg Communications Inc. they seem to name Eastlink as "Eastlink Communications" or "Eastlink Cable" or "Eastlink Limited" on the website or as they bill thier customers for cable TV ,internet and phone all the same bill but not the Long Distance . Its confusing to all of us .--Bill 03:10, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks for the message

The reason I linked to that page on my blog is because it provides an imperical look at what the markets are doing. The data is aggregated from our local MLS (of which i'm a member), and allows people to measure buyer intensity in a non objective way (i.e. its a better method than saying 'gee there are a lot of for sale signs up' although that may be true too). As far as I know, there is no other way to visually guage the local market currently being offered.

Thanks Benjamin

[edit] Tim Hortons

You have edited this article in this past. Decimal10 is causing problems over at this article again (both through his account and his IP address). If you have time, I was wondering if you would help me keep an eye on the article. For more background, take a look at the lengthy message I have left on his talk page, which details all of his inapprorpiate behaviour (User talk:Decimal10#Your vandalism of Tim Hortons), a message he may erase (or just as likely ignore). Additional details are on Bearcat's talk page, relating to one particular issue (User talk:Bearcat#Tim Hortons). I'm just getting tired of dealing with him (he called me a "nutcase" this morning in an edit summary), and I could use a hand from some experienced editors familiar with the article (not to mention some third party input, just in case I am losing perspective). Thanks. Skeezix1000 20:29, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

Thanks. That's great. It is always helpful to have third parties get involved. Skeezix1000 00:52, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] TV/radio station moves

Hi! Just want to let you know that I think you've misinterpreted the naming conventions. Per WP:NAME:

All full-power Canadian FM and commercial TV stations have a (-FM or -TV) suffix... most U.S. and many Mexican stations, do not.

A quick search of the FCC TV Query for, say, WAGA shows that the correct call sign is simply "WAGA"; compare to the results for WDIV (which lists the station as "WDIV-TV").

The section you pointed to in your edit summary is meant to give guidelines if there are multiple stations with the same base callsign. It doesn't mean that all TV stations should have titles with the "-TV" suffix, because many do not.

It's a common mistake, but the distinction is important. Happy editing! — stickguy (:^›)— || talk || 22:03, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

Hi Stickguy, thanks for the message. You should probably contact Taestell about this; I'm really just carrying out his orders as I'm an administrator and can move pages over other pages. I'll review the moves that I've performed now :-) —Mets501 (talk) 22:47, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Awcanada.gif

Thanks for uploading Image:Awcanada.gif. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}. If you have not already done so, please also include the source of the image. In many cases this will be the website where you found it.

Please specify the copyright information and source on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me, or ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. cohesion 07:08, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Entertainment Now

A company being non-operational is not, in my opinion, a valid reason for it not to be acknowledged. I don't feel the article was written as an advert but please feel free to edit it, I simply see no reason why the article cannot exist (even on an disambiguation page) considering there is no other entry for Entertainment Now other than a re-direct, which is a link to an organisation no longer affiliating themselves with that name.

[edit] CTV and A-Channel

After the recent ruling where CTV was forced to sell the five Citytv stations (to Rogers), there's another problem I think few are aware of... If CTV is allowed to keep the A-Channel station in Ottawa, they would own two stations there, as they already own CJOH. What do you think about that? Maple Leaf fan '04 13:08, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

Random philosophical questions for the day...does this mean CTV is going to change ASN from a de facto Citytv to a de facto A-Channel? What happens to CP24, since none of the media reports have said anything about it? And since Citytv and A-Channel have always served the secondary purpose of being an easy place for CHUM to throw on repeats of stuff from Space and MuchMusic and the like, what happens to Citytv if there's no longer that avenue for filling holes in the schedule?
Gonna be interesting, that's all I have to say... Bearcat 01:14, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Awcanadaconcept.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Awcanadaconcept.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:CBCRadio3.png

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:CBCRadio3.png. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Breno talk 09:18, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:Global2006.png)

Thanks for uploading Image:Global2006.png. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Vocm.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Vocm.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 03:08, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Ontlogo.png

I have tagged Image:Ontlogo.png as {{no rationale}}, because it does not provide a fair use rationale. If you believe the image to be acceptable for fair use according to Wikipedia policy, please provide a rationale explaining as much, in accordance with the fair use rationale guideline, on the image description page. Some examples can be found at Wikipedia:Use rationale examples. Please also consider using {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags/Non-free. Thank you. Rockfang (talk) 14:08, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] CFDR radio

C.A. ("Arnie") Patterson coined the slogan C-F-("Big D")-R, almost from day one of operation. The reason the call sign CFDR was chosen originally was CF Dartmouth Radio. Not sure if you've ever heard CFDR, but it was Arnie as well who coined the slogan for "Wood Motors Ford... where else?" Cheers! Aloha27 (talk) 04:21, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
