Fair use rationale for File:WOL.gif
editFile:WOL.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
History
editWOL has an important early history which is completely ignored by this article. It was one of the first four surviving radio stations in D.C. (the others being WRC, WJSV, and WMAL, I believe in that order). A study of early issues of Broadcasting magazine would definitely benefit this article. (See, for example, the October 13, 1941, issue, which contains a paragraph on Russ Hodges' move from Charlotte to WOL, where he was already doing Redskins play-by-play. 121a0012 (talk) 00:33, 13 November 2011 (UTC)
WOL
editI wonder what WOL means. It's an acronym. So, what does it stand for? --Manorainjan (talk) 19:25, 20 September 2013 (UTC)
WOL Callsign.
editI've found in other research projects, timetables for WOL listing all the way back to 1932 in The Evening Star paper in Washington, and likely father back, so this should be addressed, either as if another station had this callsign, or however the true answer is.
