Branding
There was a lot of debate about this even within the company. I think it was in 2007 there was a major effort to brand the station using its call letter kxly. Although this is all just from my own memory. --Ricochetintj (talk) 01:37, 4 March 2010 (UTC)

I really don't want to get into an editing war, so I'll just post my thoughts here:

There is some debate as to whether the station is branded "ABC 4" or "News 4." While the news broadcasts are referred to as "News 4," the station is otherwise "ABC 4," especially when promoting syndicated or ABC programming.

For example, you wouldn't hear an announcer say, "The Rachael Ray Show, coming this fall to 'News 4.'" —AKA 15:05, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

Cole Bunzel position
Contrary to the person who edited my recent contribution, Cole was the news director when he was killed. He was a friend and was considering me for a position at the time. I don't have any proof, other than my memory. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Bassetman4 (talk • contribs) 03:33, 30 July 2010 (UTC)

Adding unreferenced entries of former employees to lists containing BLP material
Hello, Please do not add unreferenced names as entries to the list of former employees in articles. Including this type of material in articles does not abide by current consensus and its inclusion is strongly discouraged in our policies and guidelines. The rationales are as follows:


 * 1) WP:NOT tells us, 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.
 * 2) As per WP:V, we cannot include information in Wikipedia that is not verifiable and sourced.
 * 3) WP:Source list tells us that lists included within articles (including people's names) are subject to the same need for references as any other information in the article.
 * 4) Per WP:BLP, we have to be especially careful about including un-sourced info about living persons.

If you look at articles 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 names, 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). If a preexisting article is already in the encyclopedia for the person you want to add to a list, it's generally regarded as sufficient to support their inclusion in list material in another article. cheers Deconstructhis (talk) 18:23, 11 April 2011 (UTC)
