The inline Google books citation is handy, but seems kind of low budget. Is there a way to get a real reference here about Kershaw? If he transformed local news as much as is implied, there should be more and better references. -- Knulclunk 19:15, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
I think the Action News paragraph was fine, if it can be sourced. Perhaps Rollosmokes can explain himself a little better? -- Knulclunk 21:32, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
Most of what he did happened in the '70s. No internet then, If he'd done it last year there would be plenty. Marylandstater 22:27, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

Image:Action news 1981.jpg 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.

Is the current career information in the "Former personalities" section (AKA "Where Are They Now?") off-topic for the article? Vicenarian ( T · C) 00:36, 13 June 2009 (UTC)
I just cut everyone out of the alumni section that does not have their own Wikipedia page or have a reference to establish their notability. This is the current consensus procedure, based on discussions at WP:WikiProject Television Stations and at the Village Pump. The rationales are as follows:
All of the people with their own pages are notable enough to appear on this list. However, if you look at pages 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 info, 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).
Some specific notes:
The others that I removed had no citation and no wikipage, so no evidence of notability or that they worked at WBAL. Qwyrxian ( talk) 05:05, 8 September 2010 (UTC)
To whoever uploaded File:WBAL Logo 2013.png, this is to explain why the logo was removed from Wikipedia with my upload. I am not jealous of the upload, nor do I believe that it is superlative (as it is a scalable vector graphic image). However, I removed it due to two reasons related to fair use ( WP:NFCC) as it was not uploaded to Wikipedia directly, but rather to Wikimedia Commons:
I regret having to remove this logo but will do all that it takes to ensure that properly licensed logos are used. If you happen to re-upload this logo but properly marked as fair use, I shall be satisfied with the deletion of mine's.
