The article ] has been ]&#32;because of the following concern:
Regarding KGCU...it's something that's about to get lost in the sea of call letter changes...and I feel that since the station was KGCU (without an AM or FM suffix)...that's how it should be referenced. Since the current station in Alaska is an FM operation, it would more properly be listed as KGCU-FM.

Of all the things not in this article, I was surprised to find from ]. I don't see enough between those and ''Gothamist'' to pass notability, and the rest is unreliable. Found nothing else.'''</blockquote>


While all constructive contributions to Misplaced Pages are appreciated, pages may be ].
This all brings up a question. Does Misplaced Pages have a "similar to" popup list like Google? I don't remember ever seeing one...but it sure would be handy.


You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your ] or on ].
You're right about the year of sign on. When I located 1925 (Broadcasting Yearbook - 1969) it didn't sound right...but that's a generally reliable source. Later I found the 1926 date elsewhere, then ran into your note. I have made the appropriate changes.


Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the ], but other ]es exist. In particular, the ] process can result in deletion without discussion, and ] allows discussion to reach ] for deletion.<!-- Template:Proposed deletion notify --> ] (]) 22:05, 21 January 2023 (UTC)
Anyhow, I worked at KBOM for a brief period in the 1960s, and prior to that at KFYR and KFYR-TV. I also made some additions to their historic content...particularly with a list of 1953-1965 TV personalities on the KFYR-TV page.

Perhaps you could read a little more about his accomplishments, and possibly re-consider your position. You said that you based it on his having "not been president of the ACA, just a council."

Thank you for your minor corrections to ]. Almost all these changes were fine. You did, however, change two things which were direct quotes. Louis Spohr called his quartets "quatuor brillant" and not "brilliant". And Terry Riley really did say "in order to" and not just "to".

:Yeah I saw your summary. I've left that alone because you explained it. IMDB can sometimes have erroneous information, so I"m told, but unless someone else has other info then I won't change it...

==The "Data dictionary" page==
I just made a minor change to the ] page, yet, increadibly you backed it out within 30 seconds with the comment: "Reverted addition of dubious unsourced content". The change I made was to say that the "Data dictionary" is commonly also known as a "metadata repository", and, in fact, the ] page says the same thing. So, in a sense, I was simply cross referencing the two terms.

I find it offensive that you backed out my change so rapidly, withourt a moment's thought - perhaps you have done it via a robot???

My change was so small and so trivial, and self-evident, that I felt there was no need to first enter into a discussion.

On this page you say you are a new contributor. ok so am I. However, I question your expertise on the subject of "Data dictionary" - if you claim to be an expert let me assure you that you have demonstrated you are not, and if you are not an expert then you should not meddle with things you know nothing about.

Finally, I thought that Misplaced Pages welcomes contributions from all people. Luciano Q. <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding ] comment added by ] (]) 10:14, 14 January 2010 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

Proposed deletion of The Diggs

Notice

The article The Diggs has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Among the sources on page are two interviews which don't clear, one review from Losing Today which might be a blog (or at least doesn't look overly reliable), and a very short piece from Gothamist. Of all the things not in this article, I was surprised to find two reviews from AllMusic. I don't see enough between those and Gothamist to pass notability, and the rest is unreliable. Found nothing else.

While all constructive contributions to Misplaced Pages are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
