The articles are fine, new enough and long enough, neutral and of no concern to Earwig. Two QPQs have been done. It's the hooks I am having difficulty with, I can see that WRSL no longer has local programming, but where does the WXKY article state that it does not? And I don't think that the station names in ALT1 work, it looks like one link. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 20:48, 17 January 2020 (UTC)

They own hundreds of radio stations but they're all satellite-fed national Christian programming; I've added a couple of sources to make that a little clearer. I've changed ALT1 to read "WRSL AM and FM" instead of "WRSL-AM-FM". Raymie (t • c) 08:06, 18 January 2020 (UTC)
Thank you. Approving both hooks (it is best to strike the original when making alterations so that editors can follow the thread). Cwmhiraeth (talk) 10:36, 18 January 2020 (UTC)
