Talk:On-air staff of KPRC-TV

Article name
there are two problems with the article name: I propose renaming this article "On-air staff of KPRC-TV". Ground Zero | t 21:24, 4 June 2010 (UTC)
 * 1) the capitalization is incorrect: only the first words and proper nouns should be capitalized, so "personalities" should not be, and
 * 2) "personality" is not a job description, it is industry jargon, which an encyclopedia article should avoid.
 * That's fine with me. Working in the industry, I usually hear them called "personalities" but if on air staff sounds better I'm all for it. I simply created the article to de-clutter the main one. - --milonica (talk) 17:18, 6 June 2010 (UTC)

Significant trimming of Former Staff section
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. This is the current consensus procedure, based on discussions at WP:WikiProject Television Stations and at the Village Pump. The rationales are as follows:
 * 1) 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.
 * 2) 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.
 * 3) 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).

Proposed Merger
I'm proposing that we merge this into the main article KPRC-TV. Please discuss your thoughts on the matter at Talk:KPRC-TV. Qwyrxian (talk) 02:38, 22 September 2010 (UTC)
