I think you have made a mistake. For example. pre-empted has a hyphen because the double e is confusing, especially for non-English native writers. Also, the MOS uses am and pm, without periods. The rest are attempts to improve; you should try that sometime rather than just reverting edits you dislike. Thanks, 2603:8080:B200:5CDE:1938:E3EC:9278:57BF (talk) 20:18, 6 November 2022 (UTC)

The Manual of Style says "12-hour clock times end with lower-case a.m. or p.m., or am or pm", we use periods for consistency. Also, the "preempted" spelling is for consistency across TV station articles. Mvcg66b3r (talk) 20:27, 6 November 2022 (UTC)

In the Call sign meaning, the bolded letters xas were for emphasis. Hurricane BP Member (talk) 12:30, 7 November 2022 (UTC)

@Hurricane BP Member We've been undoing this in articles for three years after it was pointed out in 2019 that MOS:ACRO exists in our Manual of Style and specifically forbids this practice. Sammi Brie (she/her • tc) 17:35, 7 November 2022 (UTC)

Hi. In reference to your edits here and here, should the article read "serving [city of] San Juan, Puerto Rico" when the article also states it covers the island. This isn't my forte, so I'll leave at your discretion if you are better versed with broadcasting and TV stations. Thanks, Mercy11 (talk) 12:11, 18 November 2022 (UTC)

Hi @Mercy11, TV stations in the US are licensed to serve a particular community. In this case, that's Ponce, but it's important to mention here that San Juan—the largest city on the island—is covered. WSTE is unusual in that it has multiple transmitters in its license so as to cover the whole island. (Other stations in Puerto Rico may have island-wide coverage but over several licenses.)
