Who's the authority?
editArticle says "Please note that those networks included must have national exposure, not regional." Who in WP has decreed that? The article is not "List of ...s on national networks".--SilasW (talk) 13:55, 5 November 2009 (UTC)
Merge Sports commentary
editThere were three articles where I think there should only be two. The versions I found were:
Sports commentary seems to be the one that has the least unique information, so it's the easiest to merge. I've already moved its introduction into Sports commentator, leaving just the list that duplicates the purpose of List of sports announcers. A couple of points:
- arguably, the Sports commentator article should be retitled to "Sports commentary". I have no opinion, but in any case I suggest delaying any such move until the proposed merger has been completed
- the formats of the two lists are different. I don't know which is better. If there is an agreement in principle to merge, the details can be sorted out afterwards. jnestorius(talk) 18:42, 29 November 2009 (UTC)
Multi-sport announcers
editThere was a question on the Reference Desk about why Chris Schenkel was not included on this list. I noted that Schenkel's career spanned so much time and included so many sports that it is difficult if not impossible to pin down to a single category. I then suggested that Schenkel and a number of others (Curt Gowdy, Al Michaels, Keith Jackson, et al.) who were equally versed in multiple sports should be in a separate category at the top, and save the sport-by-sport listings for those who covered just one or two. Any thoughts? → Michael J Ⓣ Ⓒ Ⓜ 17:52, 19 December 2012 (UTC)
- OK, Schenkel is now listed in the "Miscellaneous" category. → Michael J Ⓣ Ⓒ Ⓜ 16:58, 6 September 2013 (UTC)
Notable announcers
editJust an FYI to all of the editors of this article:
I removed all non-notable people from this page. This means those who had red links, and those who had no link at all. If they are re-added, please make sure that they follow WP:LISTPEOPLE. Thanks, Corkythehornetfan (Talk) 20:13, 30 December 2014 (UTC)
Tennis Channel?
editCan Tennis Channel announcers be added, I wonder. Not geographically regional but cable tv. Mayumashu (talk) 02:10, 19 January 2018 (UTC)
