thread_title: Image copyright problem with File:Fox1762.gif

message: I've tagged this article with  because much of its information is totally unsourced, some of the sources are questionable (e.g., someone's blog), and some previously cited sources don't include any information germane to the text they supposedly supported (e.g., the FCC documents I've moved to a new "Further reading" subsection of "External links"). I ask regular readers and editors of this article to dig up and cite more sources for anything not reliably sourced already. Thank you. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 05:52, 16 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I've moved "Further reading" back under "External links", after it was moved, because this section currently adds nothing whatsoever to the article. It should be deleted in its entirety as soon as someone can find proper sources for the digital-transition information. (None of the FCC documentation that I found cited in this article tied any information to WKBN-TV itself. In fact, one of the cited documents, an FCC form, was completely blank.) I also restored the non-printing blank lines I deliberately added to the article to make it easier to edit and to fact-check. Wikipedia is supposed to be written by ordinary people, not by programmers who are comfortable with "tight code". ~ Jeff Q (talk) 06:21, 16 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text:  Okay, I just deleted the dang thing. If somebody actually wants to do something with those links I spent so much time examining, only to find nothing really useful in them, they're welcome to get them from the article history. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 03:52, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Needs more and better references 

message: I've resurrected the old section on "Notable WKBN alumni" because I was aghast that Tom Holden, a fixture of Youngstown television for three generations of viewers, was nowhere to be found. In fact, I found more sources for factual information on Holden's death than are cited for much of the rest of this article. I restructured the section to give emphasis for the two folks we have good info on, and then listed the others from the old section, each section in (approximate) chronological order.
I suspect that we should ultimately delete some of the other alumni for lack of sources, but I included them to give everyone a chance to dig some up first. (I think that Ode Aduma may have enough published about him to be "promotable" to his own section, but I'm simply out of time to work on this right now.) ~ Jeff Q (talk) 06:38, 16 April 2009 (UTC)
