Template:RadioTranslators

There is a bug in the RadioTranslators template -- there is nothing that differentiates AM stations from FM stations, as all stations link to the FCC's FM database. In the Moody Broadcasting Network article, there's a list using this template, but the network has several affiliates on the AM band. Could the template be adjusted so that the station could link to the correct database? Thanks again. -- azumanga (talk) 03:15, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

There is no such thing as a licensed AM radio translator in the United States. These stations you speak of are either not translators or are not licensed. The use of this particluar template in this particular situation is invalid. JPG-GR (talk) 03:17, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Try utilizing {{RadioRebroadcasters}} instead. JPG-GR (talk) 03:20, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

The Moody Broadcasting Network list is showing incorrect and misleading information. Nothing on there says if the stations are 24/7 translators of MBN or part time.

If this is the file that you are using for the list, it says there "Moody’s Owned and Operated Stations, Translator Outlets, and Satellators (highlighted in blue) carry the complete schedule of Moody Broadcasting programs. Our affiliate stations (in black type) carry a portion of this programming." The stations on the list should be divided like-wise so it is not misleading. As it stands now, it seems like all the stations listed carry the full schedule of MBN programming, when they do not...or are all owned by MBN, when they also are not. - NeutralHomer 03:27, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Keep the article discussion to the actual article's talkpage, NH. And, kindly remove my talk page from your watchlist. JPG-GR (talk) 03:28, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

You created the list, so it is your job to make it work correctly. I will do that for you. - NeutralHomer 03:30, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

I made the template. If you actually checked the history of the article before accusing me of adding false info to Misplaced Pages, you'd see I've never even edited the article. So, knowing I won't get the apology you owe me for once again falsely accusing me of something with no proof whatsoever, kindly take the article discussion to the actual article's talkpage and remove my talk page from your watchlist.

Moreover, nothing on Misplaced Pages is a "job." Nor, it is your job to stalk my edits and talk page CONSTANTLY, though you seem to treat it like your job, and you don't even do it all that well, based on the false accusations. JPG-GR (talk) 03:38, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

That's great and all, but I have updated the page correctly and will be "fixing" the template presently. - NeutralHomer 04:18, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Template updated from 21 to 30. 21 is not sufficient room for translators/stations in states like Texas or California. - NeutralHomer 04:27, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

(edit conflict) Thank you for proving my point. And there was nothing to be "fixed" with the template - it had yet to be utilized anywhere where there were 30 translators and no station has come along that requires them. I'm reverting those changes because, as stated above, the stations in those lists are NOT translator stations and this template is not the appropriate choice. However, feel free to make the appropriate changes to {{RadioRebroadcasters}}, an appropriate template for this purpose, as I mentioned to Azumanga. JPG-GR (talk) 04:28, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Check the Texas affiliate section of the ] where there are 26 stations in one section, which is currently "broken" because of your revert. - NeutralHomer 04:35, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Yes, because for the third time on my talk page, when the discussion should be taking place on the article's talkpage, the wrong template is being used. Does a bold font help, or should I increase the font size? Perhaps you'd like to install Microsoft Agent? JPG-GR (talk) 04:37, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Perhaps you just don't want to admit you are owning the crap out if this template? I will revert for you...I still have that power. - NeutralHomer 04:39, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

PERHAPS YOU SHOULD TRY READING THE CONVERSATION FOR ONCE. IF YOU AREN'T GOING TO READ WHAT I'M POSTING IN RESPONSE TO YOU ON MY TALK PAGE, STOP FUCKING POSTING ON MY TALK PAGE. JPG-GR (talk) 04:43, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

I reverted your change on the Texas affiliate section of the ]. You are just being silly. Also, I wouldn't post cuss words on your talk page. That got me in trouble once. - NeutralHomer 04:45, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

So, I fix the problem, and then you revert it? You do realize you're just blindly reverting me again, since you clearly REFUSE to read what I'm trying to explain to you and try to understand it. THIS is why you alienate so many people - you post INCESSANTLY to their talk pages, and when they try to have a discussion with you YOU DO NOT LISTEN, and then you blindly revert. JPG-GR (talk) 04:47, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Yeah I reverted...cause you used a template that doesn't have the FCC Listings beside the entry. You are own'ing over this template and reverting what....the addition of 9 blank entries? Why? - NeutralHomer 04:57, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

The FCC column is not included because {{RadioRebroadcasters}} is used for the US and Canada. And, for the last time (this being the fourth time on my talk page, when the discussion should be taking place on the article's talk page), the stations listed there are NOT translators, so {{RadioTranslators}} is NOT the correct template. They ALL need to be changed to {{RadioRebroadcasters}}. JPG-GR (talk) 05:01, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

You want them changed to {{RadioRebroadcasters}}, then do this....add an FCC link beside the entries. I don't know why that would be a problem...hell, that is a simple cut and paste. Again, WP:OWN.

Also, I wouldn't have to bring a "minor situation" to ANI, if you could work with others and not own over everything. - NeutralHomer 05:05, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

I find it entertaining that I have no problem working with any other editors, yet you have a history of it. I believe you need to step back, look over the whole situation, and re-evaluate your position. JPG-GR (talk) 05:08, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

I find it quite entertaining that you see no problem violating and disregarding WP:OWN, one of them "rules" we have here. Once you add something to Misplaced Pages, it is not yours anymore (unless you have a copyright on it). Since you don't have a copyright on the template, it ain't yours and I can edit it. Adding 9...NINE...blank entries is something you think should be reverted? Now that is entertaining to me. - NeutralHomer 05:13, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

As no radio station in the US has more than 21 translator stations (as of an October check, feel free to find me one that does), there is absolutely no reason to have more than 21 blanks, unless you are using the template incorrectly. ADDITIONALLY: this is my last comment on this matter on my talk page. Since you have REFUSED to discuss this situation in the mainspace (where it should be), any further conversation can take place at the WP:ANI thread you started.
