WCAU Personalities

Was large and hard to manage, pared it down to current list, but it is now redundant with WCAU. Most other TV stations have lists of their personalities on the main page and I basically did this and created the individual articles. Pressure Thirteen 01:39, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete You seemed to have come up with an elegant solution and one that gives some unity to the televison articles! It makes more sense if everyone gets the article on the station page and has links to the individual bios. The old page was a bit clunky to maintain! Kramden4700 02:16, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete Per above Wrath of Roth 15:25, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Note This AfD is related to the AfDs for WPVI-TV Personalities and KYW-TV Personalities. Tinlinkin 10:18, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep and revert/merge non-notable biographies See WPVI-TV Personalities. Here is a sample version of the WCAU Personalities page before it was divided. Tinlinkin 10:30, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep and revert/merge non-notable biographies as per above Tazz765 16:08, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
    • Here is a suggestion: Eliminate this article, as "Personalities" really is an inaccurate description and degrades the fact they the people are journalists and not entertainers, create two new pages with capsule bios, WCAU-TV Anchors and WCAU-TV Reporters while keeping the list on the main WCAU page to have a one stop place with the list of former station employees in the full context of the station article. This would be a more accurate categorization of the talent instead of the generic and inaccurate "Personalities". A side benefit is the pages would be smaller and make vandalism easier to spot. Hell', I'll even do it. Kramden4700 23:34, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Merge these bios into articles such as those suggested above by Kramden4700 and delete this one.
