KBPS-FM changes calls to KQAC

[edit]

On April 16, 2009 KBPS-FM changed their call letters to KQAC, to go with their "All Classical" branding.

Therefore this article should be under the "KQAC" heading.

Detailed program info really neccessary

[edit]

Is the detailed program information in the article really necessary? It lengthens the article and does not add much value. Maybe just list the two or three most important programs or outstanding highlights. The programming section is not supported by citations and references which should be added. -- MenschMitHut (talk) 14:21, 26 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

There's a happy medium between where the article is now and gutting it entirely. I suspect from textual clues that some of the program description prose is copied from another source (there was a "pictured" after one host's name, for example) and I've removed the schedule data and lightly trimmed the peacock terms. Another in-depth editing session is certainly warranted. I'd leave a couple sentences about each locally-produced program but shave the syndicated stuff down to a paragraph or two. (You want to learn more about the bluelinked program? Click the bluelink.) - Dravecky (talk) 17:57, 26 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
In fact, I just took another whack at the prose to alleviate any copyright concerns and to further tighten the text. - Dravecky (talk) 18:14, 26 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
 Done I completed the whacking, removing the syndicated stuff. There are a couple of redlinks in the syndicated list, but those items just need their own articles. Describing those programs here does not make sense. I left all of the local stuff, since there is no other way within WP to get an idea of what those were, and Dravecky shortened the descriptions nicely.

COI

[edit]

Major edits to this page have been made by users who I believe work at KQAC. I've identified 3 users whose usernames and edit history make me suspicious, but I will not name them here. One of them says clearly on their user page that they work for All Classical Portland, while another's name lends to the belief that they are an intern there. A third uses a person's name, which is the same as someone who, a simple internet search reveals, works at KQAC. Paris1127 (talk) 22:22, 4 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Late reply yes I know, but I did notice this as well. Looks like they kept at least one of their accounts around as well (nvm, user was blocked). Schobbish (talk) 08:30, 19 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Is KQAC an NPR station or isn't it?

[edit]

"NPR member stations" is one of the categories of this article. Also, the article includes the "NPR member stations in the state of Oregon" template. However, the article says that "Operating cuts caused NPR membership to be discontinued in 1993". So, is KQAC an NPR station or isn't it? Mksword (talk) 07:41, 15 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
