WGBS

« on: December 18, 2005, 06:41:27 PM »

I noticed that there were entries for both WGBS and WGBS-TV. They seemed pretty similar (and equally brief) so I merged them under the name WGBS.

Any reason it should be WGBS-TV instead?

I thought GBS was the parent org and that WGBS-TV was the local station but since they have the same call letters and mean pretty much the same thing, I dont have a prob with it

That makes sense and wasn't something I was aware of.

But if we're going to split them up, then we should at least make the differences clear in the two different entries.

I think I wrote the original WGBS stub based on an actual mention in the comics (the first mention?) and a quote that calls it WGBS and not WGBS-TV --if it is called WGBS-TV at a later date then maybe a separate entry is justified, but they still seem synonymous to me.

it's seems like the same thing to me, what issue do they call it WGBS-TV instead of WGBS?

See this is why citing your sources is so important.

I was checking the wanted pages scetion and saw two links for a missing page which is why I stubbed it - wasnt even aware of Telle's entry. I guess checking whats actually included in the 'manica would help too.
