WPVI broadcasted an extremly inaccurate story about the Nintendo Ds and Pictochat. http://abclocal.go.com/wpvi/story?section=special_coverage&id=3905371
I hate this station, bring down nintendo...
I disagree with the splitting of the WFIL-TV section, as it is the same station as WPVI-TV is now. It makes no sense to make a split. Kramden4700 05:10, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
This article currently contains 22 images that are tagged as copyrighted and unlicensed for use on Wikipedia. The third item of the Wikipedia fair-use policy states, "The amount of copyrighted work used should be as little as possible." Something needs to be done. A few unlicensed images might be acceptable under a claim of fair use, but 22 is clearly too many. —Bkell (talk) 23:40, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
Shouln't we note something about Lisa Thomas-Laury on the page? She's not even in the Reorters section. Lisa was one of PVI's main faces until 2002 when she was diagnosed with a nerve disease. I belive she may have had some sort of accident on set because of this, but I can't verify. She has now recovered and is easing back into Action News, doing feature stories. Proof of this is on the 6ABC website in the videos section: 6abc.com --Adam Fisher-Cox (criticize or compliment) 18:11, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
What happened to the articles for some of the on-air personalities, such as Monica Malpass? --ukexpat (talk) 18:05, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
Image:Wfil57.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Does anybody have any info on WPVI news chopper 6 crash? All I have is this News report: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iN0xOuUXE7w --Akemi Loli Mokoto (talk) 01:51, 31 January 2012 (UTC)
The article lists Erin O'Hearn as a current member of the Action News team on WPVI. Her bio on 6abc.com is accessible only if you use a search engine to find it, but she is not listed in the main body of WPVI reporters on their bio page, and has not made any kind of appearance on WPVI since 2010. She also hasn't made a post on her Facebook page since 2010. Does anyone know if she is even still a WPVI employee? Bill S. (talk) 04:57, 11 March 2012 (UTC)

To be "notable former staff", someone must be notable and former staff. For instance, we would not include Sally Field or Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria. While both are clearly notable, neither one is former staff. Likewise, someone who is former staff but not notable would not be included. - SummerPhDv2.0 01:12, 7 July 2017 (UTC)
Yes, people die. However, Wikipedia generally does not indicate in lists that various people are dead. If you disagree, you might want to update this list for starters. - SummerPhDv2.0 02:44, 8 July 2017 (UTC)
