  • OR issue with [7][8]
    • [7] is buried in a footnote on PDF page 8, page 743. It is the big blockquote which is prefaced "In Mekaoy Co...." citing the document that apparently was the FCC deleting the permit in 1980. I cannot find this document anywhere, unfortunately, because it was published not in the main FCC Record. Mekaoy Co. is mentioned in some decisions about extensions for unbuilt TV stations and has a citation of 48 R.R. 2d 815 (B'cast Bur. 1980) referring to Radio Regulation 2nd Series. This appears to be very difficult to obtain and may only be digitized in a specialty academic database I do not have.
    • [8] is not OR, as the source states "CP reinstated 2-22-82". PDF page 1095 but book page 1079.
  • replace [22] with this
    • When a multipage newspaper clipping is cited, I will always include it in its entirety, so this will not be changed (even if the content being cited is in the second page of the article). @CosXZ: See comments in re: the OR tags, which I've removed.

  • [33] has wrong url
    • Wow, thanks for catching.
  • link publisher when possible

General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
QPQ: Done.
Overall: Earwig only complains about some stuff covered by WP:LIMITED. Plagiarism spot checks as of Special:Permalink/1288286502: ref 5 is clear; ref 12 is clear; ref 26 doesn't mention Riklis, but not everything requires an inline citation and it supports the second half of the sentence without copyvio (I really hope that Riklis realized how much he lived up to his name); 39 is clear; 49 is clear.
