Do we really need to list the digital channels in the template too? PSIP mapping will take care of things, so people won't really need to know the DT channel numbers anyway. Besides, it seems redundant to list the digital channels when they link to the exact same articles as their analog counterparts; they just take up more space on the article. Can't we have the template just like the ones for the other markets (with the VHF's and UHF's listed together too)?

  • At a minimum, it shows what stations have converted in one place and allows navigation between the digital stations. I have seen a few radio nav templates where they have multiple links to one station. The extra space is in the template and not in the article, but it does add a bit to what has to be sent to display that page, not sure if that really matters. Also, PSIP does not always work in Vegas so, as an example, receivers will show DT for NBC on 2-1 and not 3-1 like it would if it had worked. Don't know if that is a flaw in the broadcasts or the receivers. Vegaswikian 04:09, 4 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Adjustments

  1. Adjusted font-size and table cells to control real estate usage (On screen size).
  2. Added color for easy of association (ie: Digital, UHF, VHF)
  3. Moved some HTML to CSS

[edit] Cable Channels

Now that we are adding local cable channels, shouldn't the Clark County and City of Las Vegas cable channels be on this template? What about Greenspun's Las Vegas One cable channel? --Ghettorichie01 12:53, 13 July 2007 (UTC)

  • I don't think that issue is resolved. Your questions about the others are part of the problem. My objection to listing any of these is that are not available to me on any broadcast TV station. I'd wait a while longer to see how the discussions on this topic plays out on the TV project page and probably AfD. Vegaswikian 01:44, 14 July 2007 (UTC)
