Do you have any idea what the "T0" on the IFT Coverage Viewer stands for? User:Rudy2alan (Rudy2alan)
- @Rudy2alan: I don't see one, just the normal A. What's that about? Raymie (t • c) 18:01, 27 December 2019 (UTC)
That's strange; when I click on the coverage map a box comes onto the screen and the class shows T0.
I figured out how to take the screenshot, but not how to send it to you. Can I upload the file and put your name in the Article line? My personal email account is through Yahoo, and I can attach files to emails which I send. Does Wikipedia have a policy against sharing personal emails with other editors? I have no problem with giving you mine. Rudy2alan (talk) 17:05, 28 December 2019 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Category:Members of the Constitutional Assembly of Mexico City requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the category has been empty for seven days or more and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

I'm seeing a possible format change; the Radiorama website shows a Magica 100.1 logo and streaming to match that. Can you check it out and see if the Article needs to be changed? I couldn't find a Facebook page to verify or not. User:Rudy2alan (talk)
- @Rudy2alan: Yes, it's also a change in operator. I forgot to put this one completely in there—it happened in April 2019. Lemme quote my blog from last year:
"The winds of change continue to blow in the Capital del Mundo, as XHHPC-FM Hidalgo del Parral Chih. has changed names and evidently operators.
The station is now going by Mágica, retaining the romantic format; the station has no social media presence under the new operators. After a Wikipedia edit prompted me to look, it took several more days for material to emerge: a promo for a new "Plataforma Informativa" newscast on XHHPC featuring the new Mágica logo.
The Wikipedia edit also claimed the station was being run by Sistema Radio Lobo, but this seems to be incorrect. Pako Rueda's post mentions a company known as "Plataforma en Difusión, S.A. de C.V.", which apparently was incorporated last February. It is the operator of XHEFO-FM in Chihuahua Capital, having been paid by the state government for advertising in November. (Note that Grupo Bustillos is also associated with XHEFO and Humberto Bustillos hosts its afternoon Plataforma Informativa newscast.) The Plataforma Informativa brand also is used on XHPMOC-FM in Ciudad Cuauhtémoc, which is operationally associated with Gerardo López de la Rocha (who also does not appear to be the same person as José Gerardo López de la Rocha of Radio Lobo). The general manager, Héctor Gabriel Luján, has previously been in charge of Radio Viva Villa 730 XEHB (during its Grupo Radiofónico ZER days) and Radio Uno 640 XEHHI and once also worked for Lobo. (Confused yet?)
Previously, XHHPC was a Radiorama Pergom station with the Vida Romántica format. Parral has been unusually busy in radio news this year, with the announcement of its first public radio station in February, the closure of the original station in town (XHEAT) in March after 84 years of broadcasting, and now a format and operator change in April."
Please put operator = Plataforma en Difusión, S.A. de C.V. in the infobox when you tackle this. Raymie (t • c) 22:50, 16 January 2020 (UTC)

KSFH
I note that last year, you proposed the merger of KSFH (internet station) into KSFH — but it's been five months and nothing's happened, so I just wanted to remind you about it if you forgot. There's been no opposition, and no new comments since September, so it's okay to just go ahead with it. Bearcat (talk) 16:02, 18 January 2020 (UTC)
