message: This station vacated channel 55 because they were paid to vacate it early not because they were forced to. There is nothing that prevented them from staying on channel 55 analog broadcasting. They were PAID to leave early.

message: I don't mind the feud with Cablevision being pointed out, but shouldn't it be worded better?
Yes...good point. This person has added this type of junk all over this article thats misspelled, has poor grammar and just makes no sense. I just wanted to make a point...probably not the best way to do it... Eklapper 20:43, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

message: BlueboyLI edit summary: "restored digital channels template; removed diginets from affiliate box, these are not traditional networks; the station no longer broadcasts a mobile tv signal"
* no "digital channels template" - I can only guess that you are referring to the wiki link from the infobox to the digital channels, which I understand to be not recommended on WP.
* "removed diginets from affiliate box, these are not traditional networks" - so neither is an independent station a "traditional network" and affiliation also applies to individual syndicated shows, but those are not the main affiliation of a channel. While a programming service or diginet are major/channel wide as My Network TV, which is a programming service (as has Fox and may still be) which might commonly still be considered a network. Diginet also implies network.
* "the station no longer broadcasts a mobile tv signal" - using the fact that the station longer broadcast mobile TV signal to remove information that they no longer do so. You should not wipe out historical information like that. Yes, it isn't in the best place, but we don't have the time frame information.
* Lastly, the change of when the third subchannel started. Given that RabbitEars.info doesn't give the launch date, the most correct is the state "By" the date I check it as it could have been March, April or May (or even further back), thus "late May" is not correct.
