thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Wbru.jpg

message: Okay, serious question: Since WBRU, the radio station owned by BSS, has moved online, what will happen to the WBRU page? Technically speaking, WBRU is still an active radio station on 95.5 FM, but this page is identifying with the now-defunct online radio station. With that being said, will there be a new page added for the station that took over the 95.5 frequency, or will WBRU be re-worded to tie in with the new format? --Skeeball93 (talk) 15:03, 1 September 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: According to the article, "WBRU" remains with BSS and is still the same (or continuation) of the 95.5 station, while "95.5" was sold and is now using the callsign "WLVO". So this article remains about WBRU, including its time at 95.5, and a new article could be written for the new callsign. That is, the articles track the topics even as they move from place to place, not the "one callsign at one frequency". DMacks (talk) 15:16, 1 September 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: In that spirit, I've taken the opportunity to give the new WLVO its own page. (Since the license did exist before BBS bought it with programming completely unrelated to WBRU/BBS, it's probably better that way, since there is still some form of "WBRU" even though it isn't on 95.5 anymore.) --WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 07:22, 4 September 2017 (UTC)
