Hi Sammi Brie, review follows: article more than 5x expanded from 7 November; article exceeds minimum length; article is well written and sources used look to be reliable for the subject matter; I didn't pick up any overly close paraphrasing issues; hook is moderately interesting and checks out to the source cited; a QPQ has been carried out. My only comments at the moment are that I think the original callsign of KIXF could do with mentioning in the first paragraph of the history section as it is introduced a bit abruptly in the second paragraph, also that the data in the infobox should be reviewed to ensure it is cited there or in the main text (eg. the full branding "La Nueva 1090 - Puro México" and the technical information) - Dumelow (talk) 08:21, 8 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Dumelow Agree on the first issue. I never see a citation on active station pages for the information in the technical subsection; it's always been implied that it is sourced to official records (and I got it to show the FCC links too). I'm assuming the name came from an official website that is no more; it matches with the active Facebook, which is an UTTER trainwreck (that 1310 is the long-dead KFVR and they talk about returning to the air "soon" with financial support from listeners). Half the reason I found this station is that its license expires December 1 and they are late filing for renewal. They are a trainwreck.

Fair enough if the page now linked at the bottom of the infobox sources the technical data, I have seen similar on other infoboxes (sports, I think). The name is no biggie, I think - Dumelow (talk) 19:30, 8 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
