Talk:Wawatay Native Communications Society

Overall

 * Include Wawatay's governance structure
 * Who is the current CEO?
 * Include their physical address and not just their three bureau phone numbers
 * Include a map showing their service areas
 * Brief history listing accomplishments from their beginnings in 1974 to today would be good

Radio
So far the Radio stations and their rebroadcasting/translator stations have been listed. It seems the three stations in Sioux Lookout are the main ones and others repeat those (at least that is my impression). A brief description of each of these main three stations would be good, with a more full article at the individual stations' pages. I don't know if anyone has created any re-directs, but all the rebraodcasting/translator stations should have a re-direct page created for each of them to the station of broadcast origins.

TV
What would improve this section is a list of TV station(s) (if there are several, that is), channel assignment and power strenghts, programming, etc. If they have cable-TV/satellite-TV channel assignment(s), that would be a good information to have. If they rebroadcast CBC or other media programming for part of the day, that, too, would be a good information. I see that they were making TV shows for IPTN, but other than occasional video production, there seems to be little or no activity in this area CJLippert (talk) 14:34, 20 August 2008 (UTC)

Print
So far the print media name in English and Oji-cree are there but that is about it. Anything here would be an improvement, such as readership circulation, news contents (how much news is local, regional, provincial, national, international; how much advertisement; how much of other news sections, etc.)

Other
Please cross out the above tasks and suggestions out as they have been completed in the article. Thanks. CJLippert 16:38, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
 * What all technological services do they provide?
 * Any plans for future expansion?
 * Any cooperative agreements to provide technological services to non-core NAN Oji-cree communities?
 * How is this service used in Wahsa Distance Education Centre and their schools?

Radio
There are two native community radio undertakings based in Sioux Lookout, CIDE-FM and CKWT-FM. Can anybody clarify which of these two is Wawatay's operation so we can link this article properly to other Wikipedia articles? Bearcat 00:17, 2 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Done. All of WRN stations are now listed.  I don't know how many of these are unique stations and how many are traslator/rebroadcasting stations... but I think I will let those with more Radio savvy take care of that.  We still need to work on Wawatay's other media services, though.  Just as a side note, I went to WawatayTV's site and went to their children's programming pages.  Up pops a fellow in a bear-suit.  I laughed because the guy looks just like one of our IT people... Hmmm.  Maybe he telecommutes 500+ miles via internet feed. CJLippert 16:38, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
