WIXO
[edit]Hey, Netchris. I just wanted to get this whole "X" thing straight. So 105.7 the X now has WIXO instead of 99.9, and 101.1 has WXMP instead of 105.7, and 99.9 has a whole new set of call letters? I really have no idea, I just wanted you to update me on this. And, by the way, would you be able to tell me the diff. between the mix that The Mix 101.1 would play and the mix that 99.9 Pirate Radio would play? It seems diff., just wondeirng if you would know. Thanks, and thank you for your help with the "X" article. :) Temp
Orphaned fair use image (Image:Wjrelogo.jpg)
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:Wjrelogo.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

Non-free use disputed for Image:HoggCountryLogo.jpg
[edit]This file may be deleted. |
Thanks for uploading Image:HoggCountryLogo.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read carefully the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content and then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies. 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 it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our Criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 04:20, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
Fair use rationale for Image:OldWIXOLogo.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:OldWIXOLogo.jpg. 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. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.
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 you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. 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 04:44, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
Media in Peoria
[edit]Thanks for your comment. Per your message at User talk:Closeapple#Media in Peoria Page, I posted a message at Talk:Media in Peoria, Illinois#Scope, which explains why I had those listed. You might have the right idea though. Editors will have to make sure the smaller cities with their own media (Canton, etc.) also still link to the list articles for nearby "big city" media, though, so they don't suffer from copy-paste syndrome trying to keep synchronized with nearby large markets all the time. --Closeapple (talk) 09:35, 8 March 2010 (UTC)
Thank you for your work on this page. The tables look great! CTJF83 chat 06:24, 9 March 2010 (UTC)
You mentioned in an edit summary that 90.7 WAZU Peoria is on the air. I created an article, since it appears a license-to-cover is filed and imminent. Did you discover it by picking it up? Any idea of what programming is on it or what its hours are? The way the preliminary website was arranged, it appeared it was going to be a Pacifica Radio outlet. --Closeapple (talk) 04:03, 12 June 2010 (UTC)
