More on WENK and WTPR
They seem to have the same format, although I don't know whether they simulcast. Maybe the solution would be both logos in the same infobox?Rudy2alan (talk) 13:57, 26 September 2020 (UTC)


 * Based on what I can see, it looks like they're a trimulcast. You're right, though - WTPR and WTPR-FM have an identity, and then WENK and the translator have a separate identity (although they share a tagline). Short-term, I'd agree that it'd make sense to put both logos in the infobox. Long-term, though, the stations have been around long enough that their histories could probably support separate articles if you wanted to break them out.
 * Logisitically, if I were doing that, here's what I'd do:


 * copy the existing content on the WENK article
 * paste it on WTPR (AM) over top of the redirect, with an edit summary referencing the revision number of the existing version of WENK, and save it
 * edit the resulting WTPR (AM) article to reposition it as an article about that station specifically, but keeping references to the trimulcast
 * flesh out the WTPR (AM) article with whatever further history you can find
 * lather, rinse, and repeat for WTPR-FM
 * edit the WENK article to reposition it as well, with an edit summary referencing the split you've performed
 * Easy peasy lemon-squeasy. Well, not really, but that's what I'd do, anyway... Mlaffs (talk) 15:45, 26 September 2020 (UTC)

Redirect sorting
and I'm starting this discussion here, as I'm interested in feedback from both of you. Continuing to play with my missing radio station articles sub-page, further refining it to hopefully make it more useful for the people who are doing article creation. If you'd be so kind, please have a look at this edit and let me know whether or not you think it'd be at all helpful. I haven't linked everything in there yet (don't want to waste the time if it's not a worthwhile change), but that would be the intention if I were to take it live.

Would you have time to look over/add to my latest draft? Thanks! user:Rudy2alan (talk)
 * Tweaked a few things - added categories (commented out for now) and applied the new infobox structure (which has some cool added features). Little stuff like that. Mlaffs (talk) 21:40, 3 October 2020 (UTC)

Hi! There's no need to create dab talk pages if all they're going to contain is the WP DAB banner. You can see the template documentation. There's no need to worry about any you have already created. – Uanfala (talk) 12:32, 20 October 2020 (UTC)


 * Thanks for throwing up a flag! Can't believe that the approach on this changed more than four years ago, and not only did it slip past me (I was dramatically more active then than now and I have the project watchlisted) but nobody's beat me up about it before now.
