Unclear

Refer to the previous version to see the paragraphs from the article that I removed. They were impossible to understand, and seem to be about transfers of broadcasting rights, and joint advertising sales agreements. This is not approprieate for a Wikipedia article. Who sells the ads, and how they share the income, seems to me to be out of place in this kind of article.Nick Beeson (talk) 21:55, 20 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Needs major update

On June 14, WLNS shut down its Okemos transmitter and began broadcasting from the WLAJ transmitter. Info at [1] and [2]. So this article needs a major rewrite. Steelbeard1 (talk) 16:25, 26 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Digital channel table and other issues

I and another editor, Nate/Mrschimpf, agreed that no Digital channel table or section is needed given that the station is only 1 subchannel: "there's only one channel; a grid here is very much pointless. Agreed with Spshu here; it goes. Sorry. But some MOS adjustments are needed, and a bunch of inaneness about syndication needs a cut too". These tables are not MOS or other wise recommended by WP:TVS, so point to other articles is WP:OTHERSTUFF. Even if it was a guideline, the situation is a good point to invoke Wikipedia:Ignore all rules rule. I also request, the IP editor discussion it on the talk page.

Other issues that have come up are

Analog-to-digital conversion secitons - these should be in history as they are singular events that need not be singled out, thus are best in history as discussed at TVS: Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Television Stations/Archive 10#Digital transition is in the past
News is a form of programming, thus it makes sense to place it under progrmaming.
There is no requirement for http: in the URL template. I think that is the point of the template other wise, what is the point. Spshu (talk) 21:10, 19 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I'm gonna have to agree with you for the first time as well, as for the sections, I think this should extend to other television station articles. HurricaneGeek2002 talk 15:08, 21 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I disagree anyway because of this. CentralTime301 (Talk, Contributions) 18:53, 21 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Also, DT2 and DT3 are NOT any kind of standard for subchannels and PSIP can be filled with any thing. One station has the networks in the PSIP. The only thing identifiers of the subchannels that do not change are the .2, .3, etc. Spshu (talk) 15:36, 25 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
