Talk:KSDK

message: Apparently, Wikipedia user A Man In Black is removing the logo galleries from the station websites, presumably because he believes they are cruft.  I disagree.  The KSDK entry has extraneous info, but I think that logo galleries are an interesting view of a station's history.  Anybody agree/disagree? Crooow 17:44, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: About the awards section, would it hurt splitting it into its own article (Awards given to KSDK-V or something like that)? I'll put a notice in the article. J Klein talk tome!!!!  22:34, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Logo gallery

message: Recently, KSDK’s page has undergone some major changes, mostly having to do with the page’s organization and appearance.  These are my own personal thoughts on these changes:
1.) The removal of all the links in the “personalities” section (and the use of boldface to highlight the names) seems like a step backward because many of the personalities (especially the past personalities) have their own page, to which their name is no longer linked (what is the point of the personal pages if their name can’t be linked to it?).  Though it does create some uniformity with the other St. Louis TV station pages, in my opinion, this change does not improve the page overall.  I think the links to both the personal pages, and pages of the stations where the people are currently working, should be re-added to this page (and probably the same to done to the other pages, as well). 
2.) The reorganization of the page and the creation of the “Awards” page are, in my opinion, well done (although, I did make a few minor changes).
Does anyone else have any thoughts/opinions?

thread_title:  Removal of Links 

message: :Image:Ksdk.gif 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. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 05:09, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Ksdk.gif

message: The article states that KSD-TV became KSDK in 1983.  The station's website says this as well.  However, two YouTube videos of KSDK clips from 1982 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HVx6uMHtg7Y) and (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7isgm4DmzLA) show graphics that read "Copyright 1982 KSDK, Inc.").  Does anybody familiar with St. Louis media history know when KSD started using KSDK as their call letters? Crooow (talk) 04:17, 8 January 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Question about the station's history

message: I just cut everyone out of the alumni section that does not have their own Wikipedia page or have a reference to establish their notability and verify that they worked at they station.   This is the current consensus procedure, based on discussions at WP:WikiProject Television Stations and at the Village Pump. The rationales are as follows:
#Most importantly, per WP:NOT, 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.  
#Secondarily, per WP:V, we cannot include information that is not verifiable and sourced.  I'm not certain how it would even be possible to source this information.
#Per WP:BLP, we have to be especially careful about including un-sourced info about living persons.
All of the people with their own pages are notable enough to appear on this list.  However, if you look at pages 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 info, 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).
