• Op-ed: Articles for creation needs you
  

Ever since the Wikipedia Seigenthaler biography incident in 2005 triggered the restriction against un-registered editors creating new pages, WikiProject Articles for creation (AfC) has stood in the breach.

• From the editors: We want to know what you think!
  

Please take this survey about the Signpost.

• News and notes: One editor faces likely ban for work on Wikipedia; Jimmy Wales awarded $1 million
  

Also: GLAM-Wiki Conference; Ombudsman Commission announced; Slovak Wikipedia now has 200,000 articles

• In the media: Is Wikipedia eating itself?
  

Edina edit war illustrates disconnect between new and experienced editors; Wikipedia is "astroturf's dream come true"; Canadian government investigating even more Wikipedia editing; academics on Gamergate as "clash of civilizations"?

• Featured content: A grizzly bear, Operation Mascot, Freedom Planet & Liberty Island, cosmic dust clouds, a cricket five-wicket list, more fine art, & a terrible, terrible opera...
  

Two articles, three lists, and twenty five pictures became featured.

• Traffic report: Bowled over
  

Wikipedia presents itself as a repository for the world, and while that is a noble sentiment, it is still true that, Conservapedian complaints notwithstanding, the English language Wikipedia is very often the American Wikipedia, and never has that been more apparent than this week.

• WikiProject report: Brand new WikiProjects profiled
  

This week, we bring three of the most recently created WikiProjects to come into being on the English Wikipedia. While many long-established projects are becoming inactive, (as we have covered before), that doesn't stop new ones forming every now and then to cover a topic that a group of editors feel should be better cared for.

• Gallery: Feel the love
  

This week, we feature subjects that are about love of all kinds.

Question

Hello. I have a question for you and because I know you know more about this area than I do, I am asking you. You probably saw this in your watchlist, but shouldn't the article be WAVE (TV) instead of WAVE-TV? The FCC station's page shows no -TV, so then it would be (TV). I figured I'd ask you before moving the page back. Thanks, Corkythehornetfan | Chat? 17:00, 23 February 2015 (UTC)

The naming conventions suggest that WAVE (TV) would be the correct title in this circumstance. --WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 20:46, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
