# Talk:KOVR

KOVR now has a new logo. It is no longer using the logo seen as a result of the Viacom buyout (WGME, another Sinclair property on CBS, uses the same logo style as the old logo for KOVR) - TrackerTV 14:28, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

I have moved this article back to KOVR from KOVR-TV. Consensus on both WP:NC#Broadcasting and Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Television_Stations#Article_names is that the article name should reflect the actual call letters of the TV station. As can be seen here: [1] the call letters for this station are in fact KOVR. Any concerns regarding this topic would be best addressed here: Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Television_Stations.

Does anyone know if KOVR-TV originally broadcast on channel 36?  Some television station licensed to Stockton apparently broadcast on channel 36 in the 1950s. Jab73 (talk) 09:14, 6 September 2008 (UTC)

That would be KTVU Channel 36.  (no relation to the current KTVU)  it was on the air from 1953 to 1955.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.90.141.24 (talk) 16:53, 12 August 2009 (UTC) 

The article suggests that they owned this station from 1959 to 1964...Ranma9617 07:49, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

It will be co-anchored by Tony Lopez and a newcomer(from Tucson's KOLD-TV)whose name I don't remember offhand...Ranma9617 23:00, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

Image:CBS 13.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 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.
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. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 04:47, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

There had been some incorrect information here regarding the timeframes of when certain newscast titles were used at KOVR.   The "Newswatch 13" title was not used until sometime between August and November of 1980, and the "KOVR 13 News" title began when Dan Gray became the lead male anchor, which  
was about April 1987.  Manhizzy (talk) 05:41, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

This article is a tad bit messy. All the external links floating about aren't really proper for Wikipedia. In addition to that, the article goes into "list mode" a lot, which in itself is not bad but one should look at WP:LIST for info on how to make sure lists are used properly in Wikipedia. I'm going to put this page on my watchlist and "To-Do" list to help out. Killiondude (talk) 19:40, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

Oh I forgot to mention that I'm going to put a "Clean up" tag at the top of the article for these reasons. I also noticed that there are two references given in the entire article. I'm going to put a "more refs needed" template up as well for that reason. Killiondude (talk) 19:42, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

Hello, Please do not add unreferenced names as entries to the list of former employees in articles. Including this type of material in articles does not abide by current consensus and its inclusion is strongly discouraged in our policies and guidelines. The rationales are as follows:

WP:NOT tells us, Wikipedia is "not an indiscriminate collection of information."  As that section describes, just because something is true, doesn't necessarily mean the info belongs in Wikipedia.
As per WP:V, we cannot include information in Wikipedia that is not verifiable and sourced.
WP:Source list tells us that lists included within articles (including people's names) are subject to the same need for references as any other information in the article.
Per WP:BLP, we have to be especially careful about including un-sourced info about living persons.
If you look at articles about companies in general, you will not find mention of previous employees, except in those cases where the employee was particularly notable.  Even then, the information is not presented just as a list of names, but is incorporated into the text itself (for example, when a company's article talks about the policies a previous CEO had, or when they mention the discovery/invention of a former engineer/researcher). If a preexisting article is already in the encyclopedia for the person you want to add to a list, it's generally regarded as sufficient to support their inclusion in list material in another article. cheers Deconstructhis (talk) 14:11, 7 April 2011 (UTC)

I question the edit done by Fairlyoddparents1234 on 2012 September 8‎ at 08:02 with a reason of "Converting redirect note to disambignation note." (Just for reference, his last edit was on 2013 November 12.)
If I am looking for other uses of "KOVR", why would I want a disambiguation page about "CBS 13"?
Folks are getting lost trying to find the company that makes "Kovr Sunscreen": The Active Life Company <theactivelifecompany.com>.
Any suggestions would be helpful.
