Rationale for deletion of disambiguation page
[edit]Per the WP:Disambig page, "If only a primary topic and one other topic require disambiguation, then disambiguation links are sufficient, and a disambiguation page is unnecessary." Since the radio station call letters are the primary identification and the acronym for a United Kingdom trade organisation is a secondary identification, a hat note is sufficient and requires no more steps than would a disambiguation page for people seeking the Wine and Spirit Trade Association. - Dravecky (talk) 11:15, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

- Comment: DYKcheck may not pick this up as a 5x but it is 5x from the immediate last revision. In memory of Addie Ottley (1941–2022). My first radio DYK in the USVI (all that's left is Puerto Rico!).
5x expanded by Sammi Brie (talk). Self-nominated at 06:20, 13 February 2022 (UTC).
, hooks are mentioned and have been verified. (AGF on paywalled NYTimes article). I like ALT0 better. A qpq has been conducted. Article was expanded from 697 B to 4029 B of prose, indeed over a 5x expansion. I wish the article could be brought up to present day, but this is good to go regardless.

- @Eddie891: You might notice there's a reference from this week with his death. The station strikes me as not having changed a lot in the last 35 to 40 years. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 19:10, 13 February 2022 (UTC)
- Yeah, that's pretty much what I figured. Eddie891 Talk Work 19:20, 13 February 2022 (UTC)
