OCTV-71

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Local public access tv stations. The only source is the station's website. This clearly does not meet WP:GNG The article claims that it was originally a low powered broadcast station. I cannot find anything to back up that claim. The call sign W12BJ actually indicates a translator station, not one that has its own programming. The fcc's record's [1] indicates that it is a translator owned by the University of Kentucky which began operation in 1996 (not 1989 as the article claims).

'Merge to Owensboro Community and Technical College. Nom is encouraged to read wp:before. FloridaArmy (talk) 21:53, 14 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Easy there on the WP:BEFORE allegations. If you're going to throw it out there, please provide some sources, what did you find that I didn't? This is the only thing I found is this [2] and despite it being on a university website, I have doubts about its factual accuracy.--Rusf10 (talk) 22:35, 14 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
