[edit] Merging?
WMAQ and WSCR are two seperate entities, each worthy of seperate articles. WMAQ, while defunct, has a deep history very worthy of an article spanning multiple pages. WSCR's only relation to WMAQ is it took over the frequency in a corporate takeover/FCC required restructuring. Electrawn 08:41, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
- See Talk:WMAQ Radio for past discussion.
- Appears WMAQ Radio was deleted, along with Talk. Electrawn 08:41, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
FYI, it was me that replaced the redirect with the stub (I was logged out!) --WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 01:41, 24 January 2006 (UTC)
I placed the merge message on both pages because, while they are seperate stations, both shared the same frequency. It's kind of the same deal for WNBC (AM) and WFAN in New York, but there isn't a separate page for WNBC's history; it's included within the WFAN entry. Rollosmokes 17:07, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
Did WNBC and WFAN share the same studios? Format? If all they shared in common was the same frequency -- Sounds like WFAN and WNBC need spliting before WMAQ and WSCR need merging. Remember this is an encyclopedia, If we merge these two there needs to be a flow. This case is an apple and an orange. Electrawn 04:34, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Why the cleanup tags have gone up
Users Spiddy (talk • contribs) and Crazyfingers (talk • contribs) have made the article below the intro... very ugly and hard to read, to say the least. It needs lots of tidying up -- in fact, I probably should have tagged for a complete rewrite. Anyway, the article's current state is sad, to say the least. --WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 17:24, 20 May 2006 (UTC)
- I cleaned this up (at least took care of some of the bad grammar) and agree with Electrawn that this should be separate from WMAQ, for the reasons stated. WMAQ was closed when WSCR took over its frequency (basically because both WMAQ and WBBM were Viacom-owned news radio stations), and WMAQ's staff was terminated. It would make as much sense to merge WSCR with WMAQ based on frequency as to merge it with whatever is now on 820 and 1060. --Busjack 03:51, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
