The station's current president and CEO is Greg Petrowich as of July 2019. Source: https://www.wfyi.org/wfyi-press-room/greg-petrowich-to-succeed-retiring-lloyd-wright-as-wfyi-president-and-ceo
WFYI has announced that OTA receivers must rescan starting 10AM 26 Feb 2018. The only explanation so far is "newly installed broadcast equipment".
Does anyone know what is happening? Are they changing their RF channel?
I believe that altering their sub-channel usage (for example, adding 20.4 or going from SD to HD) wouldn't require a configuration change in the tables. Further, table updates can be "pushed" by the broadcasters.
So why the need to rescan? — Preceding unsigned comment added by HiTechHiTouch ( talk • contribs) 11:36, 20 February 2018 (UTC)
It has been nearly a year [1] since the split was proposed with no comments. I think there is no need to have separate articles about the FM and TV divisions of the same organization, especially since the article about the combined entity is already so small. I will remove the {{ Split-multiple}} after July 12, 2007, the one year anniversary of it's addition. -- rogerd 06:51, 6 July 2007 (UTC)

... the logjam finally broke at the end of June."Logjam" might be an inaccessible phrase here for certain audiences. I would possibly throw in another synonym like "stalemate" or "impasse".
When Sesame Street began airing that fall, WLWI aired the series until WFYI could begin broadcasting.Since "began" is already used here, maybe make "begin" as "start" to avoid repetition.

Alrighty, skim-through and read-through very good. Mainly suggestions and some corrections. Will do a spot check soon and rest of article review write-up. Adog ( Talk・ Cont) 03:33, 31 August 2023 (UTC)
The article is well written, with only minor suggestions for flow or corrections. The article has a general manual of style that follows TV stations. The article cites a variety of reliable sources that are properly formatted in a reference table. The article's spot checks were mostly good, just some points above. In terms of Earwig's report, it is clear from the common-cold of plagiarism, close paraphrasing, or copyright problems. Adog ( Talk・ Cont) 04:38, 31 August 2023 (UTC)
The article is broad in scope for its content on the subject matter, with a refined focus on key details. The article is neutral, with no outstanding problems. Adog ( Talk・ Cont) 03:33, 31 August 2023 (UTC)
The article's image of the station's logo is relevant to illustrate the subject. The paperwork for it is properly filed. The article is stable, with no active or ongoing edit conflicts. Adog ( Talk・ Cont) 03:33, 31 August 2023 (UTC)
