Talk:WINT (AM)

WELW changing calls
WELW is to become WINT ("Integrity radio") on March 31. Unfortunately, a WINT page already exists, a redirect, so a simple article move won't be possible; there'll have to be content moved between pages. Mapsax (talk) 13:45, 29 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Done. For the history of the WELW talk page up to this point, go here. Mapsax (talk) 12:07, 2 April 2014 (UTC) Edit: Undone, as seen below. Mapsax (talk) 15:38, 4 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Just to clarify, what Mapsax is saying here is that he attempted to perform a cut-and-paste move, which was reverted. The link to the "history of the WELW talk page" is not only unnecessary, but also misleading, and should be disregarded.  The edit history of this talk page is fully intact.   Levdr1 lp  /  talk  15:54, 4 April 2014 (UTC)
 * It is now. It wasn't before. My comments above are obsolete now but were still written so I restored them. Mapsax (talk) 16:04, 4 April 2014 (UTC)
 * You aren't "restoring" anything. You're adding comments made during your attempted cur-and-paste move at the "WINT" talk page.  That attempted cut-and-paste move was reverted, so in effect, you're making the above comments on this talk page for the first time.  You might want to strikethrough your above comments to avoid creating additional confusion.   Levdr1 lp  /  talk  16:26, 4 April 2014 (UTC)
 * I disagree, since the two topmost comments appeared together at one time. But strikethrough is fair enough. Mapsax (talk) 16:32, 4 April 2014 (UTC)
 * The point is you originally posted those comments to a different talk page with a different edit history; you added them to this page later, including a misleading edit history link. This isn't subjective.  This isn't something with which you "agree" or "disagree".  You attempted a cur-and-paste move.  It was reverted (including the associated talk page).  Posting those same comments here w/o providing clarification creates confusion over just what happened here.   Levdr1 lp  /  talk  17:05, 4 April 2014 (UTC)
 * For whichever page they are relevant, they, and by extension this whole section, need to be preserved together just like this, strikethrough notwithstanding. The point is that a comment of mine got deleted without my permission, and that wasn't justifiable according to the points in the list at WP:TPO. Mapsax (talk) 14:03, 5 April 2014 (UTC)
 * This section, in is original form, is preserved within the edit history of Talk:WINT. You can't expect another editor such as myself to move around your comments when trying to fix your attempted cut-and-paste move.  Wikipedia requires attribution, and there was nothing even remotely justified in separating nine years of this article's edit history from its content (the small link you provided was not nearly sufficient).

Requested move

 * The following discussion is an archived discussion of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section. 

The result of the proposal was withdrawn. --BDD (talk) 16:49, 3 April 2014 (UTC)

WELW → WINT – Radio station callsign change per WP:RADIONAMING. See FCC online database entry for WINT callsign history. Mapsax attempted cut-and-paste move due to existing redirect, which I reverted. Withdrawing nomination. WINT already exists as a disambiguation page. I have moved the article to WINT (AM) accordingly. Levdr1 lp /  talk  18:13, 2 April 2014 (UTC)


 * I moved the page to WINT (NE Ohio) to avoid conflicts with the other WINT page, and to reflect the new call letters. Vjmlhds (talk) 20:48, 2 April 2014 (UTC)


 * You are supposed to discuss the matter and help reach a consensus, not act unilaterally.  Levdr1 lp  /  talk  21:44, 2 April 2014 (UTC)


 * Please note: the title of this article at the time I requested the page move was "WELW", not "WINT (NE Ohio)".  Levdr1 lp  /  talk  22:08, 2 April 2014 (UTC)


 * Mild Support. The WINT disambiguation page doesn't list anything solely listed as Wint/WINT rather entries where that word is part of the full title. I'm not overly convinced it's WP:PRIMARYTOPIC but if there's no evidence to refute it then I support the move. Zarcadia (talk) 12:48, 3 April 2014 (UTC)
 * If the WINT disambiguation page contained nothing but abbreviations or acronyms, I might agree with you. However, there are multiple people listed with the surname "Wint", and there's even a Fort Wint listing.  Any one of those topics could make a case for being the primary topic, and all but one (Aron Wint) have more monthly page views and incoming links than this article (I'm not counting links from the Cleveland Radio template).  Moreover, WP:RADIONAMING is clear on the matter: "If a disambiguation page exists at the base call sign: Use the format 'KXXX (AM)', 'KXXX (FM)', 'KXXX (TV)', etc. for stations without suffixes in their official names."
