Lots of POV and unsourced opinion by the look of it— Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.169.75.206 (talk) 17:31, 11 June 2006‎

(Odd appearance)

This is the weirdest-looking Wikipedia article that I have ever seen. Bold face running all through it... kind of indicates that this is simply PR writing that got onto Wikipedia.

If anyone REALLY cares about Wikipedia being more than a mouthpiece for the Wiki-commissars or the organizations that fall beneath their gaze, maybe someone should delete the article and start all over.

Dear 70.162.185.211 (Tucson/Phoenix/Scottsdale, AZ) - I agree the bold formatting is excessive and have removed most of it. However, most of the information in the Beatles and WABC sections has been properly attributed/referenced/cited/sourced inside and outside of Wikipedia. As an award-winning journalist (former news director, ABC affiliate), I take suggestions of subjectivity and editorial hyperbole seriously. Please remove information that is patently false - or - note contradictions directly on the page.

For a while in, I think, 1976, WMCA's evening phone-in was simulcast on BBC radio London, with calls being taken alternately from the UK and US. Presenters were Robbie Vincent in London and Peter Strauss in New York.

Not sure how to add this to the article, there isn't really enough to make it notable. Does anyone have more details? Did WMCA link with any other stations? G7mzh (talk) 21:37, 26 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Would seem significant, given the technology of the time. If a cite can be found, it should be added Iwould say. All the best: Rich Farmbrough, 19:23, 19 June 2015 (UTC).[reply]
