QPQ: Done.

Overall: I prefer ALT1; not sure the first hook is interesting enough. Important question - I'm not sure if the expansion of the radio station article suffices, as it appears to incorporate through merger what was in another article. A second set of eyes on that issue, or explanation by the nom, would be helpful. 2603:7000:2101:AA00:587E:4EDE:255:173E (talk) 22:16, 1 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

- I can't ping. There is a merger, but neither page had substantial material. WCCN (AM) had 245 characters. WCCN-FM had 515 characters. 245 + 515 = 760. The current page size is 4482 characters, where the combined 5x of both pages would be 3800. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 22:18, 1 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
  - That works. Good to go. I still prefer ALT1, and I am not sure that the first hook is interesting enough. Nice work.2603:7000:2101:AA00:D919:443A:176C:AE5B (talk) 03:57, 2 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
