Disambiguation link notification for January 23
editHi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited WPLG, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page John Lyon (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.

Use of "FOX"
editWSVNFan, in a number of TV station articles, you have changed "Fox" to "FOX". While this may be appropriate for station branding, it is not appropriate for the name of the network, per Talk:Fox Broadcasting Company#Requested move.
In other articles, you have changed time references from the form "7 a.m." to "7:00 a.m." However in articles such as WBDT, you've changed "2 News at 10" to "2 News at 10:00". This is a proper name, and as such, shouldn't have been modified.
In both instances, I'm reverting the inappropriate usages, while retaining your other edits. Please let me know if this presents a problem. Thanks. --Chaswmsday (talk) 13:16, 3 February 2013 (UTC)
Cleveland TV stations
editI've noticed in the articles for Cleveland TV stations, you went into great detail about the stations newscasts. It's not necessary. For one thing it's too much information for the articles' purposes, and secondly Wikiedia isn't a directory. It's OK to list the people (as it's bascially like listing the roster for a sports team) but leave the details only as the basic, bare bones minimum...because anything else is overkill. Thank you.

Mass addition of television programming schedules
editPlease stop adding television show times. Wikipedia is not a television directory. —EncMstr (talk) 21:06, 28 May 2013 (UTC)
- This is the reason why I can't do anything anymore. Ugh ! My goodness man. When will people stop complaining to me for once ? --WSVNFan 21:12, 28 May 2013 (UTC)
- If you are not sure why we don't list television schedules, please see The Five Pillars. —EncMstr (talk) 21:44, 28 May 2013 (UTC)

Please stop content like this. The content has no place on Wikipedia and you've been warned about this and blocked for it previously, and if you continue to do so you'll likely be blocked again, for a longer period of time. - Aoidh (talk) 06:06, 11 October 2013 (UTC)
Adding newscast times
editOn several North Carolina based television newscasts, you have been putting newscast names and times. You do realize that's vandalism. There is no place on Wikipedia where this can be. This is a simultaneous violation of Wikipedia policies. If you continue to do this, you know you will be reported and blocked. (IPadPerson (talk) 23:45, 26 October 2013 (UTC))
- I am so very sorry. I didn't even know that was vandalism. I got that idea from the KAKE-TV page on wikipedia. I expanded to other pages after testing the times I've added to the Wichita market. I just thought it would have been a good idea for readers to know when each newscast on a specific station is on. WSVNFan 00:03, 27 October 2013 (UTC)
- You have been warned multiple times. Please thoroughly review What Wikipedia is not. While you are at it, read The Five Pillars: the core of what Wikipedia is.
- If you add scheduling information again, you will be blocked from editing. —EncMstr (talk) 16:17, 27 October 2013 (UTC)
- Not to be a buttinsky, @EncMstr, but it's been my long-held opinion that limited prose about newscast times is NOT "vandalism" and doesn't remotely come close to constituting an "illegal" electronic program guide, but could instead be useful to compare & contrast a station with market rivals or with co-owned stations or to indicate the relative rank of anchor staff. But that's just MY opinion. However...
- Leaving that argument aside, by blindly reverting @WSVNFan as you did in WOHL-CD, you also reverted to an out-of-date staff list that was NOT in dispute. Please try to be much more careful when enforcing your views. Thanks. --Chaswmsday (talk) 16:32, 28 October 2013 (UTC)
- I agree that adding schedule details is not vandalism and I did not intend to be mistaken as agreeing with that view. However, media schedules are specifically mentioned in WP:NOT under WP:NOTTVGUIDE, "2.6 Wikipedia is not a directory" Wikipedia articles are not: ... Directories, directory entries, electronic program guide, or a resource for conducting business. For example, an article on a radio station should not list upcoming events, current promotions, current schedules, etc., although mention of major events, promotions or historically significant program lists and schedules may be acceptable.
- Of course schedules have some use, but so do a lot of things that do not belong in an encyclopedia. There are better publications for such information, like TV Guide.
- I do apologize for removing useful changes. I was undoing hundreds of edits by a sockpuppet of a previously permanently blocked editor. I suspect a hand full of other helpful edits got lost too, hopefully nothing extensive. In cases where there was extensive entanglements, I did unravel good from bad. Hopefully those subsequent edits I didn't address are easily performed gain. —EncMstr (talk) 16:55, 28 October 2013 (UTC)
Requesting your opinion
editHi. You've participated in the editing of KCAL-TV. Can you offer your opinion about the inclusion of material in an article that's taking place in this consensus discussion, in which the reliability of that source is one of the issues that was raised (among others)? It would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Nightscream (talk) 18:19, 3 November 2013 (UTC)

Request reason:
For KTVZ, they really expanded the weeknight 10:00 p.m. newscast to one hour on KFXO-LD. WICS/WICD really expanded the weeknight 9:00 newscast on WRSP/WCCU and the San Antonio stations, I was just trying to be more clear on the times, each station's personnel was on, including KABB which does Maximum Sports, every night at 9:50 p.m. (the reason why I added 9:50 p.m. to the times on the team's personnel) and the Knoxville WATE and WBIR pages doesn't have the people who are also on WBXX and WTNZ, respectively. I'm just trying to help in the best way that I could and I know you guys don't like these changes I made, but I'm just trying my best to make it look good. After all, I wanna know when each station's personnel is on at what times because it interests me and I change info when station's personnel changes times or adds/extends newscasts because I use reliable sources like TVSpy, TVNewsCheck, Radio Insight or a station's respective website. I am a news junkie and when there are changes or expansions in news, I add the info with the sources to back it up. I'm just doing what I have to do, when others can't do it. Thank you for looking at the request. WSVNFan 18:53, 9 November 2013 (UTC)

This is your last warning. The next time you disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at WRAL-TV, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Aoidh (talk) 11:41, 24 January 2014 (UTC)
{{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. However, you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. —EncMstr (talk) 17:04, 24 January 2014 (UTC)I apologize to the Wikipedia community for doing this. I didn't meant to hurt anyone or offend anyone with my annoying editing. I'm sorry and I'll stop. Just give me one more warning and I'll take it, learn from my mistakes and come back to be a better editor to Wikipedia. Thank you. WSVNFan 02:54, 26 January 2014 (UTC)

Request reason:
I know I caused some disruption to the Wikipedia community and I know it will be impossible for me to return, but if I do, I'll just stop and be reasonable with my editing. If I annoyed anyone with my editing, then I'm sorry. I wanna keep editing, but I'll be reasonable on my editing next time. I am really sorry and I'll do whatever it takes to return. I'll continue to edit, but be more reasonable and think about my edits more before I submit them. I know I may not come back to edit, but I thank you for your time on reading this.

Accept reason:
Unblocked on condition upholding your agreement. —EncMstr (talk) 01:38, 14 February 2014 (UTC)
- I'm prepared to unblock on one condition: no addition schedules or anything resembling them, whatsoever. With understanding that if you violate this condition, your block becomes permanent. Do you agree to it? Max Semenik (talk) 15:27, 10 February 2014 (UTC)
I agree to the conditions. WSVNFan 22:36, 10 February 2014 (UTC)
- This is your very first edit after being unblocked and agreeing not to add these schedules again, immediately followed by similar edits[1][2][3] I thought you had agreed not to engage in this type of editing? - Aoidh (talk) 20:52, 21 February 2014 (UTC)
I didn't add no schedule. WSVNFan 20:54, 21 February 2014 (UTC)
- The diffs show otherwise, adding schedules or "anything resembling them", that certainly looks to resemble schedule times. - Aoidh (talk) 21:16, 21 February 2014 (UTC)
Ohh sorry. Can you show me exmaples ? WSVNFan 21:48, 21 February 2014 (UTC)

Request reason:
I don't get it as to why I was blocked again. Can someone help me explain as to why I was blocked again when I never ever added a schedule. All I did was fix or add new information on moving, expanding or dropping newscasts. That's all. WSVNFan 01:07, 27 March 2014 (UTC)
Decline reason:
Maybe you didn't add a full schedule, per se, I'll concede that. But per Aoidh above you added a lot of schedule information. So many of your edits seem focused on what time something starts. — Daniel Case (talk) 02:50, 27 March 2014 (UTC)

Well maybe that's because, people don't edit the correct information as to what time, each newscasts starts and there should be a user that can accurately edit the times and any other information to a TV station's wiki page. WSVNFan 02:54, 27 March 2014 (UTC)
Can someone add that "Gonna Fly Now (Theme From Rocky)" by Maynard Ferguson was frequently used on Citytv Toronto's CityPulse newscasts from 1980-1991 ? They used their own custom theme of that song from 1991 to like maybe 1998 or around there. Please and thank you. WSVNFan 00:49, 18 May 2014 (UTC)
Even I can't believe I can't edit my own page. That's really ridiculous. WSVNFan 00:49, 18 May 2014 (UTC)
June 2014
editFirst off, WTEN added a weekend morning show from 7:00-8:00 and 9:00-10:00 a.m. on both days, plus WNYT added a weekend edition of "NewsChannel 13 LIVE at 10:00 on My 4 Albany" on WNYA and WJZY's 6:00 o'clock newscast starts on June 30th, nightly for 1 hour. WPIX starts their morning newscast at 5:00 a.m., not at 4:30 a.m. and they don't have weekend morning news. I wonder why edits like these aren't still there on Wikipedia.

editJust to be aware, WHAS-TV 11 is not an affiliate of WeatherNation TV. It still is an affiliate of The Local AccuWeather Channel. I know this because on the first few days of WHAS' new graphics look, they did a shot from a newsroom for a LIVE news report and saw The Local AccuWeather Channel's graphics in the background, telling me that WHAS 11 is still an affiliate of The Local AccuWeather Channel and it has never shown any programming from WeatherNation TV.
Btw, can I at least have the rights to edit my own user page again? WSVNFan 21:05, 31 August 2014 (UTC)
