List of station slogans

The 'Coverage You Can Count on Across the Alleghenies' is the current slogan of WJAC-TV. It is even part of their new tv set. Its included in the news open as well. Look at the 45th picture in this slide, it shows 'Coverage You Can Count On Across the Alleghenies' http://www.wjactv.com/slideshow/news/16855253/detail.html

The list of slogans should be part of the article. 'Coverage You Can Count On' was a previous slogan used by WJAC, there is no way to source that (as far as I know), but if you have been watching channel 6 for many years, you would know that. The other slogans which are local versions of national ads should be included as well. They were used by WJAC on tv, on their commericals (not ones aired by the network).Tlonca (talk) 00:09, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

This page http://www.wjactv.com/download/2009/1209/21907841.pdf shows the current slogan as well. Tlonca (talk) 00:14, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

This page http://www.wjactv.com/download/2007/0503/13250405.pdf is the same document as the link above, just an older version. Under the logo it says 'Coverage You Can Count On'. Tlonca (talk) 00:17, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

Romper Room

I know Johnstown was recently mentioned on a PBS special as one of the towns that had their own Romper Room, with "Miss Patti." Was it WJAC? If so, wouldn't that land under locally produced programs? 162.97.179.160 (talk) 15:57, 28 February 2011 (UTC)

WATM/WWCP

Is there a reason that the WATM and WWCP logos were added to the page along with the "6.3 (ABC)"? As far as I can tell there is no 6.3 currently being broadcast, and furthermore, I doubt that WJAC would act as a translator for weaker ABC23. Nokorola (talk) 04:26, 6 June 2011 (UTC)

Images

There is a large ammount of pictures on the WJAC wikipedia page, does anyone know the guidelines for creating a "Logos" section, since I created one before that was reverted.

Adding unreferenced entries of former employees to lists containing BLP material

Hello, Please do not add unreferenced names as entries to a list of former employees in articles. Including this type of material in articles does not abide by current consensus and its inclusion is strongly discouraged in our policies and guidelines. The rationales are as follows:

1. WP:NOT tells us, Wikipedia is "not an indiscriminate collection of information." As that section describes, just because something is true, doesn't necessarily mean the info belongs in Wikipedia.
2. As per WP:V, we cannot include information in Wikipedia that is not verifiable and sourced.
3. WP:NLIST tells us that lists included within articles (including people's names) are subject to the same need for references as any other information in the article.
4. Per WP:BLP, we have to be especially careful about including un-sourced info about living persons.

If you look at articles about companies in general, you will not find mention of previous employees, except in those cases where the employee was particularly notable. Even then, the information is not presented just as a list of names, but is incorporated into the text itself (for example, when a company's article talks about the policies a previous CEO had, or when they mention the discovery/invention of a former engineer/researcher). If a preexisting article is already in the encyclopedia for the person you want to add to a list, it's generally regarded as sufficient to support their inclusion in list material in another article. 70.48.216.22 (talk) 00:20, 28 January 2014 (UTC)

WJAC’s programming

Are all of WJAC’s programming in HD and Closed Captioned? 2601:540:9:F178:7407:892:6D52:C511 (talk) 14:58, 28 June 2020 (UTC)

Beginning unlicensed?

I seem to recall hearing that in the very beginning of its history WJAC broadcast without a license. Is there any truth to this? (If so, it would probably be notable for the article.) Or was there a situation similar to this, such as another outfit broadcasting on channel 6 before WJAC switched to that frequency? (Trying to cover all possibilities, lest someone declare that no, WJAC never broadcast unlicensed, while ignoring the fact that something similar did happen.) Is it perhaps something that WJAC would rather not be mentioned? 2601:545:8201:6290:8906:831E:5F5C:2173 (talk) 19:11, 9 July 2020 (UTC)
