Um, I hope you don't mind that I skip this one. It's a bit of a drive (2,241 miles) from Dallas to Seattle. - Dravecky (talk) 05:10, 1 December 2012 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited 2011–12 Kansas Magic season, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page WKRC (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

WRVM full-power translator class question...

You seem to know how to dig out this info; can you find out the class that station WYVM is in? The station signed on this Monday but is still listed as a CP in the FCC system and I can't seem to find the class at all. I want to add it to the WRVM article under the "Full powered stations" (I have all the info in except the class and WYVM directs there via an RD), so I would appreciate if you'd please help me out with getting it. Thank you. Nate (chatter) 05:27, 7 December 2012 (UTC)

(talk page stalker): WYVM is a Class A station. Their full FCC listing is available here. - NeutralhomerTalk06:02, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
Thank you, I knew either of you could find it for me. Just didn't know how to read it (FCC channel number plus class letter). Nate (chatter) 06:06, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
You're Welcome. :) If you ever need help (and Dravecky isn't around) please let me know. :) Take Care...NeutralhomerTalk08:53, 7 December 2012 (UTC)

Hand-coding

Hey all :).

I'm dropping you a note because you've been involved in dealing with feedback from the Article Feedback Tool. To get a better handle on the overall quality of comments now that the tool has become a more established part of the reader experience, we're undertaking a round of hand coding - basically, taking a sample of feedback and marking each piece as inappropriate, helpful, so on - and would like anyone interested in improving the tool to participate :).

You can code as many or as few pieces of feedback as you want: this page should explain how to use the system, and there is a demo here. Once you're comfortable with the task, just drop me an email at okeyes wikimedia.org and I'll set you up with an account :).

If you'd like to chat with us about the research, or want live tutoring on the software, there will be an office hours session on Monday 17 December at 23:00 UTC in #wikimedia-office connect. Hope to see some of you there! Thanks, Okeyes (WMF) (talk) 23:01, 14 December 2012 (UTC)

Spread the joy of Christmas by adding {{subst:User:Neutralhomer/MerryChristmas}} to their talk page with a friendly message.

WNMB owner's death

All of the information from that comes from the WMBF-TV story of December 6-7 so it is sourced. I put the link to that in the references.Stereorock (talk) 22:03, 27 December 2012 (UTC)
