WBEZ article and Chicago Public Media article: possible redundancies

[edit]

Presently, the WBEZ article and Chicago Public Media article are partially redundant with each other. This causes problems for keeping both of the articles up to date, especially with respect to the radio programs produced and aired. (As of several days ago, both articles had stale text discussing, as if they still airing, several programs that were discontinued several years ago; I corrected these sentences as best I could, while lacking exact-year sources.)

I propose that we move all text about radio programs produced and aired to only one of these two articles. I'm thinking, but could be convinced otherwise, that that would be in the Chicago Public Media article. I solicit the thoughts of other Wikipedia editors about this. To keep this discussion all in one place, please add all of your comments on this proposal to Talk:Chicago_Public_Media, and NOT to Talk:WBEZ.

(Notes:

  • I'm not sure hwow to incorporate, or not, the Vocalo/WBEW programming into my proposal.)
  • I do NOT propose that we combine the two articles, most especially because non-profit Chicago Public Media is about to expand into the newspaper business via a "white knight" acquisition of the Chicago Sun-Times, which until now has been nominally for-profit.)
