Update

Before anything else, understand that I am the News Tribune's editor and I know that it's in bad taste, or just not Wikiquette (though hardly illegal) to edit articles in which you are mentioned or have a vested interest. That said, Blueboy96 reverted a recent edit on the site, reverting the page back to an entry that is at best, completely outdated, and by any objective standard, irrelevant (it talks about the newspaper's former TV news partners and their weathermen; hardly a matter of major current or historical significance in a paper that's been around 140 years. Further, the old entry was just wrong; it listed our previous editor, not me, for instance. It would seem to me people could add tons of info on this article; favorably or unfavorably toward the paper; that's the idea of objectivity. I won't do it because I'm the editor (one thing that grates me, btw, is the front page image; our paper simply doesn't look like that any more.) But I could not in good conscious refrain from reverting the reversion because, again, the reverted entry is just wrong. _{unsigned by Robinbirk 12:11, May 29, 2010}

I had just reverted your edit Robinbirk because most of it looked like it was from here.

Major edits

Beginning with a proper citation of Robinbirk's source, and using information from the Library of Congress's Chronicling America site, I added the publication and ownership history of the Duluth News Tribune up to present. Also referenced is a book published by the Duluth News Tribune titled Duluth News Tribune Impressions: 125 Years. A warning to any future editors: the book is largely front page scans of big events in Duluth history, and has very little in the way of the actual newspaper's history outside a few scans of articles written by the News Tribune or other Duluth newspapers. The book looks like it may also have a fairly limited distribution range, as it was apparently self-published by the paper. Feedback on the appropriateness of using this book as a source would be greatly appreciated.

I'm working on adding another section about significant people related to the Duluth News Tribune, but I'm still trying to figure out how best to include them. For now, it may be just a "See also" heading, but feel free to work the mentions into text if you'd like. --Magneticwhatever (talk) 22:02, 10 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
