# Talk:KXTX-TV

This article could use a major re-write as many of the sentences do not make sense (perhaps due to language differences?). I'm willing to volunteer if no one else does. 64.221.15.66 (talk) 22:37, 19 November 2008 (UTC)

In the 1970's, at the height of the Christian Broadcasting Network, KXTX held the Dallas-area syndication rights to Star Trek, but refused to air six episodes because of their "inappropriate" content. For example, the episode "Catspaw" dealt with witchcraft, while "And the Children Shall Lead" featured a demon, played by Melvin Belli. Those six episodes perennially drew large crowds at Dallas Star Trek conventions. Lincmad 19:12, 18 September 2006 (UTC)

What were the other episodes? 64.221.15.66 (talk) 22:36, 19 November 2008 (UTC)
The episodes that were not aired are:
Where No Man Has Gone Before
Catspaw
Wolf In The Fold
Return To Tomorrow
A Private Little War
The Lights Of Zetar
And The Children Shall Lead
The station also edited out the Orion slave girl sequence from "The Menagerie". 47.219.32.236 (talk) 15:54, 13 June 2024 (UTC)

Image:KXTX.PNG is being used on this article. 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 this Wikipedia article 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.
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 insure 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 there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

### Discussion
NOTE:This was on the Wikipedia:Discord before we decided to re-enact it here, here's a little transcript and summary, if you want the full transcript, reach out to me. Geardona (talk to me?) 07:11, 14 March 2024 (UTC)
Notes/Questions round one: 
Lead is a little long
In the lede  "licensed to" or " licensed in"?
in the first section thats a small image, is that for fair use reasons?
The section names might need some workshopping.Geardona (talk to me?) 06:33, 14 March 2024 (UTC)

This one got funky, so I'll put what happened here:
MOS:LEAD puts the maximum length of a lead section at four paragraphs. This 4500-worder justifies it, in my opinion. We suffer, almost exclusively, from overly short leads.
"Licensed to" is the correct verbiage in this industry.
That first small image was moved down one level-2 header so I could bump up its upright to 1.4 from 1 without creating a high-level sandwich.
Changed some L2 and L3 headers to be a bit more encyclopedic (notably CBN and "Doubleday giveaway").

After this (little more fluff)In the next image the caption says "DFW Airport" maybe expand the acronym? --> it got linked to the airport. Geardona (talk to me?) 07:05, 14 March 2024 (UTC)
Then went toin "New studios in Fort Worth and news expansion" maybe some more inline sources, not all at the end (unless thats how the sourcing goes idk).Also WP:CITEOVERKILL --> the section got slightly altered. Geardona (talk to me?) 07:07, 14 March 2024 (UTC)
Then wandered toincreased the size of the images that are super horizontal and moved the one down one l2 headerThen its the spot check. Then we are  Done Geardona (talk to me?) 07:09, 14 March 2024 (UTC)

@Geardona In re ref 70: I have the clipping of it at [1]. In re ref 5: that's ProQuest's database containing Broadcasting, which TWL does not subscribe to. you need to cross-verify with another source that has Broadcasting. luckily, I know a guy... [2]

There's a very good chance for this to be an April Fools' Day hook. I can't propose hooks, but something like 'a Christian TV station in Dallas found a preacher's style to be too "controversial" and "effeminate"' would fit perfectly in the day's set. Thoughts?

Whoops, meant to ping Sammi Brie. MyCatIsAChonk (talk) (not me) (also not me) (still no) 18:46, 15 March 2024 (UTC)
@MyCatIsAChonk: that's an idea. Going to include it. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 00:40, 16 March 2024 (UTC)

Overall:  Prefer ALT1a for April Fools set MyCatIsAChonk (talk) (not me) (also not me) (still no) 02:23, 16 March 2024 (UTC)
