25.9 is an audio only subchannel that broadcast the Cleveland Sight Center Service. Before removing it again from the list, keep in mind that not all digital TV sets and DTV converter boxes are able to decode an audio only channel, so you will hear nothing or get a no signal message. The Zenith and Insignia DTV boxes are able to decode audio only channels. Mathwiz593 ( talk) 14:30, 24 July 2009 (UTC)
I just saw on a station ID on WVIZ on a recording from a month or so ago that W63CT was listed as being in Thompson and W64AK was listed as Ashtabula. I used the FCC links at the bottom of the article to get the coordinates to compare; W64AK ended up being in Thompson but W63CT is south of Kingsville. However, neither of the two correspond to the city names listed in the records, and therefore the article, so I will update. (I assume that there's no WP project that identifies a priority in this situation.) Mapsax ( talk) 23:41, 2 December 2009 (UTC)

Hello! I see this is a joint nomination, I will take on this review fully either on Monday, August 14 or Tuesday, August 15. Channeling in. Adog ( Talk・ Cont) 16:15, 14 August 2023 (UTC)
Alright, Sammi Brie knows my drill, but for Nathan Obral, the following will be suggestions on grammar and sentence structure from my first skim through for the editors-at-large. If you do think that these are not appropriate for the text or are not proper, please disregard them:
For most of its first three decades of service, under general manager Betty Cope, the station intensively focused on producing and broadcasting educational television programming for schools.
From educational radio to educational television
Taking to the air
The station would host in-studio auctions ...
... generating $52,000 over a three-day period"a three-day period" to just "three days"?
Committed to the schools
Cope's preference towards local productions were modeled ..."were" to "was"?
In 1987, WVIZ created EDISON, a database of subjects for its 2,400 educational programs; the format was adopted by other broadcasters including ...Comma before "including"?
An underdeveloped, untapped resource
... Goulden was responsible for the creation of a number of programs ..."a number of" to "several"?
Evolving the station after Cope
Wareham began a five-year program with the goal of bringing WVIZ ..."with the goal of bringing" to just "to bring"?
Formation of Ideastream
@ Adog: I handled everything that was mentioned here. Two items I objected to changing. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 04:54, 15 August 2023 (UTC)
For the first skim-through, awesome! I will complete the full read-through either tonight or tomorrow morning for me (EST). :) Adog ( Talk・ Cont) 00:54, 15 August 2023 (UTC)
... came close to experiencing financial collapse ...or
... came close to bankruptcy ...? Also for sources like 12, I do see they link to Geneology. Some sources have the "via" parameter for it, some do not. If it should be consistent then those without should have the parameter, right?
The article is well written with only a few minor grammatical or sentence structure suggestions that were addressed above. The article follows a general manual style guide. The reference layout is in good shape, cites reliable sources. No problems with original research, all spot checks were good (my workplace has access to NewsBank and some locked articles, so I will keep that in the back of my mind). No copyright issues from Earwig nor are there issues with plagiarism or close paraphrasing. Adog ( Talk・ Cont) 20:32, 15 August 2023 (UTC)
The article is broad in scope, and also focuses well the on the subjects. It was an interesting read, with a lot of disputes and resolutions. The article fairly portrays its subjects in a neutral manner. No problems! Adog ( Talk・ Cont) 20:32, 15 August 2023 (UTC)
The article's images are relevant to the content and the paperwork for each seems proper. The article is stable, as there are no ongoing or active edit conflicts. Adog ( Talk・ Cont) 00:54, 15 August 2023 (UTC)
