Hello, I am planning on reviewing this article for GA Status, over the next couple of days. Thank you for nominating the article for GA status. I hope I will learn some new information, and that my feedback is helpful.

If nominators or editors could refrain from updating the particular section that I am updating until it is complete, I would appreciate it to remove a edit conflict. Please address concerns in the section that has been completed above (If I've raised concerns up to references, feel free to comment on things like the lede.)

I generally provide an overview of things I read through the article on a first glance. Then do a thorough sweep of the article after the feedback is addressed. After this, I will present the pass/failure. I may use strikethrough tags when concerns are met. Even if something is obvious why my concern is met, please leave a message as courtesy.

Best of luck! you can also use the {{done}} tag to state when something is addressed. Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)}

Please let me know after the review is done, if you were happy with the review! Obviously this is regarding the article's quality, however, I want to be happy and civil to all, so let me know if I have done a good job, regardless of the article's outcome.

Prose

Lede

• Seems a bit weird to have the channels in brackets - can we not put these organically in the prose? Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 21:43, 11 August 2022 (UTC)
• On that, channels aren't universal - is it worth saying where the range of these are? Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 21:43, 11 August 2022 (UTC)

• As you know, your KMEX review led to lots of talk about lead paragraphs in this topic area. Lots...and lots...and lots. The way we mention channels now in the lead sentence was developed as consensus to try and lighten up as much of the lede as possible.

I've tried to remove the (channel X) in the lead section about stations that aren't primarily discussed on this page. (Note that sometimes in the body, a link with parentheses after it is intended as a signal that some other station in the general area now has the call sign and they should not be confused — e.g. the "KTGF (channel 16)" link later absolutely needs that!)

Point 2: We have Pan-American television frequencies, but linking that is some fierce overkill.

• Long the only full-service commercial - long? Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 21:43, 11 August 2022 (UTC)

•  Done

• In 1997, a possible threat of disaffiliation from NBC opened the door for Sunbelt Communications Company, later changed to Intermountain West Communications Company, to purchase the station; under IWCC, the station expanded geographically and secured the NBC affiliation in the larger Great Falls market. - this is quite the sentence. Split. Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 21:43, 11 August 2022 (UTC)

General

• Link VHF. Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 21:50, 11 August 2022 (UTC)

•  Done

• After the latter amended its application to specify channel 12, both parties were granted construction permits on February 13, 1957, rejecting a proposal to remove channel 12 from Helena and move it to Bozeman. - can we reorganise this sentence? Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 21:50, 11 August 2022 (UTC)

•  Done

• There's a few instances where a sentence should stop, but then has another clause or two. Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 21:50, 11 August 2022 (UTC)

• Can you point me to a few? I did reflow a handful of other sentences.

• wrote the FCC, - wrote to the freaking FCC presumably. Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 21:50, 11 August 2022 (UTC)

•  Done

• decision had "reduce[d] our income materially".[20 - I feel like you could say this without the quote. Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 21:50, 11 August 2022 (UTC)

•  Done

• Former Satilites is unsourced. Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 21:50, 11 August 2022 (UTC)

Review meta comments

• I'll begin the review as soon as I can! If you fancy returning the favour, I have a list of nominations for review at WP:GAN and WP:FAC, respectively. I'd be very grateful if you were to complete one of these if you get time. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 11:38, 10 August 2022 (UTC)
