A fact from KHSV appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 1 July 2025 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows: Did you know... that a subcontractor working on the tower of a Nevada TV station recorded footage of the PEPCON disaster as it unfolded nearby? A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Did you know archive/2025/July. The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/KHSV.

(Please note: While the author of this article believes that sometime between Sinclair's purchase and the switch to the WB affiliation, the station had another call sign change and was possibly unaffiliated, he is unable to find any data regarding such an occurrence. Part of the reasoning behind this is the possibility of a gap between KFBT's loss of the WB Network sometime in early 1998 and the adoption of WB Network by KVWB in March of that year. This, however, remains pure speculation without any evidence, based upon an extremely fuzzy memory from seven years ago.)

Shouldn't that article be merged with this one? For one thing, KUPN and KVWB are the same station, just with different call signs. There's hardly anything on the KUPN article as it is anyway (and I don't think much else can be added to that article, without duplicating what's already on the KVWB article). -- Hinto 14:14, 25 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I remember the period between the UPN and WB affiliation. As I remember, they used the call letters of KUPN for quite a while after becoming a WB affiliate. I remember turning KUPN to watch Star Trek Voyager and it wasn't on. Superman 3 was on. It surprised me and I remember there was some kind of announcement about it, but wasn't very clear about what happened.

If you visit [[1]], you'll see the May 20, 1998, version of KUPN.com. Don't know if this helps this discussion or not. Michaelcox

I have moved this article from KVWB-TV to KVWB. Consensus on both WP:NC#Broadcasting and Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Television Stations#Article names is that the article name should reflect the actual call letters of the TV station. As can be seen here: [2] the call letters for this station are in fact KVWB. Any concerns regarding this topic would be best addressed here: Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Television Stations. —A 03:59, 3 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Image:Kvmy mntv.PNG is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Growing up in Vegas during the 1980s and 1990s, I watched KRLR too much to be good. At 6 AM, at least in 1989 onward, there WASN'T ANY 6 AM newscast of any kind whatsoever. Either COPS or Flintstones was on, or some other cartoon. I remember we'd all wake up early to watch the cartoons before going to school. Funhouse and Video Power were also some shows that KRLR throw around up there, as well. I've never heard of Kate Kelly nor a 6 AM newscast during the 1980s to the mid-'90s. Some citation would be nice to disprove the hours upon hours of VHS and Betamax tapes of the broadcasts I own. 12.192.184.60 (talk) 18:20, 28 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I 2nd this. I just scanned throw Las Vegas Suns and Las Vegas Review-Journals from 1980 to 1994 for research (un-related project), and Ch. 21 never had a 6 AM news program listed in the local TV Listings the Review-Journal ever! I'm taking the statement out due to being 100% false. Apple8800 (talk) 04:46, 15 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Now that the station's calls have changed, can this page (KVMY) be moved to the redirect page KHSV? KansasCity (talk) 04:18, 9 March 2016 (UTC) KansasCity (talk) 04:18, 9 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Need a citation, obviously. Original research, but I find putting a cheap Dollar Tree antenna on the roof I get the channel. Can't add this to the article. 2600:8801:0:2B10:3830:EADC:B663:99D3 (talk) 03:26, 27 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Explosion cloud of the PEPCON disaster

• ... that a subcontractor working on the tower of a Nevada TV station recorded footage of the PEPCON disaster as it unfolded nearby? Source: https://www.genealogybank.com/newspaper-clippings/local-tv-covered-henderson-explosion-expanded-news/kizwbjoqceodjihjfgucfbtriodnvjrp_ip-10-166-46-73_1701025872949
  • Reviewed: Lotus L. Kang and Larry Steinbach
  • Comment: The footage is PD because the guy did not try to copyright it until 2011, and in fact the citation also verifies it was published in 1988 and not held until later. Too late.

• New enough (promoted May 27), long enough (9800 B), no copyvio (Earwig says 6%, and no close paraphrasing detected), well-sourced. Hook interesting and verified in source. Approving the image, but I'm not sure if I'd suggest running it with the hook, as an image of what just looks like some explosion probably won't draw in viewers. — Vigilant Cosmic Penguin 🐧 (talk | contribs) 05:24, 5 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
