Program list.[edit]

Wikipedia is not a directory, and I think the section on programs is pushing it a little. In fact that guideline explicitly states a radio station's schedule being in the article is not acceptable. So I'm wondering if there's any consensus on how to restructure this? JoshuaJohnLee ^{talk softly, please} 03:53, 21 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I've done what I can for the moment but it still looks a little bizarre. Maybe someone else can find a nicer way for it to look (without going back to every programme having it's own subheading, please...) JoshuaJohnLee ^{talk softly, please} 04:21, 21 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Removing unsourced material - Sportsound[edit]

Radio nan Gàidheal's frequencies are also used for an extra live football match for Sportsound each Saturday afternoon.

I have removed the above sentence because I have been looking at BBC RnanG schedules and can't find sportsound anywhere. I'm not sure the program is even still broadcasting. JoshuaJohnLee ^{talk softly, please} 00:29, 22 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

==Assessment, August 12 2007== Re-assessed from 'Start' to 'Stub' quality - really missing too much stuff to be 'start'. Also re-assessed from 'mid' to 'low' importance - barely known outside Scotland, definitely not one of the BBC's major channels - 'low' seems appropriate. _TheIslander 14:00, 12 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
