liberal bias

I am curious to know the inside story how Fox 61 gets away with being such a tool for the Democrat Party given the real Fox News conservative bent. Why are they a special exception? You would think the national Fox News would come down on them like a hammer. They are not only biased, they are the worst in Connecticut. They call illegal aliens "immigrants or dreamers" for example. Other stations are biased but not as much as 61. --75.130.91.73 (talk) 23:44, 17 February 2018 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Wtic open.JPG

Image:Wtic open.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.

Unreferenced lists of former employees

Please do not add unreferenced names as entries to the list of former employees in articles. This type of material does not abide by current consensus and its inclusion is strongly discouraged in policies and guidelines. These types of unreferenced lists are excluded because:

1. WP:NOT tells us, Wikipedia is "not an indiscriminate collection of information." As that section describes, just because something is true, doesn't necessarily mean the info belongs in Wikipedia.
2. As per WP:V, we cannot include information in Wikipedia that is not verifiable and sourced.
3. WP:NLIST tells us that lists included within articles (including people's names) are subject to the same need for references as any other information in the article.
4. Per WP:BLP, we have to be especially careful about including un-sourced info about living persons. A concerted effort has been going on for several years now to revise television station articles to reflect this consensus. thanks 74.14.24.50 (talk) 16:55, 11 July 2013 (UTC)

Notable on-air staff and titles/slogans

Hello, I have removed the staff and former staff that is/was not notable. In order for lists of people be included, they must meet the criteria listed at WP:LISTPEOPLE. This isn't the first station article this has been discussed on, and articles have been protected to prevent these additions, or the editors in question blocked when they persistently continue to reinsert inappropriate material. If a name is included in the article in this way, it has to show that it's relevant to the subject by meeting WP:LISTPEOPLE. Just because a station lists its employees doesn't mean Wikipedia needs to as well, and other station articles needing similar cleanup doesn't mean this one doesn't need to be cleaned up, because whenever it's actually discussed on a station article, the end result is the same; the names that don't meet WP:LISTPEOPLE are removed. Wikipedia is also not a directory. A list of previous discussions are listed below:

• Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Television_Stations/Archive_9#Arguments_for_Excluding_.22Where_Are_They_Now.3F.22
• Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Television_Stations/Archive_10#Current_on-air_staff_list_discussion
• Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Television Stations/Archive 9#Alumni (and current staff) Lists

As for the titles/slogans, they were all unsourced, except for one. Even that is a questionable source, as I don't see YouTube as a reliable source. Thanks, Corkythehornetfan (Talk) 03:03, 19 September 2014 (UTC)
