Talk:Chicago Tribune

Section on Price

The price of the print edition now (July 2018) is $2.50 in the Chicago area. It's been that way for much of the year, as I recall. I have not found a source for the current price online, not even on the Tribune web site or in Robert Feder's blog.

I wonder whether it makes sense for the Wikipedia page to try to keep up. It seems to me that the price mentioned on the Wikipedia page will inevitably usually be out of date. M.boli (talk) 01:16, 17 July 2018 (UTC)

When you google-search the question of Tribune price, you get ancient information scraped from this section. The prices here are a year out of date, and this page likely will never keep up because reporting on Chicago media seems not to keep track of price increases any more. Not even the Tribune bothers to report its own price increases, as shown by searching Tribune newsstand price site:chicagotribune.com.

Somebody just edited this section to clarify the long-obsolete information. It's been 10 months since I proposed deleting the section. I will do it now. — M.boli (talk) 13:52, 29 May 2019 (UTC)

dirvisuals in infobox

The dirvisuals parameter in the Template:Infobox newspaper produces a warning when I show the page preview: this parameter is not recognized. But when I look at the the template documention, dirvisuals is there. Maybe the template itself needs to be updated to match the documentation? M.boli (talk) 18:26, 27 February 2020 (UTC)

Sample Front Page

Being this is election season and all, maybe a more neutral page from this year would be good? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 36.11.228.53 (talk) 04:12, 10 August 2020 (UTC)

Proposal to Remove political Parameter from Infobox

For the reasons listed on the newspaper infobox template's talk page, I propose that the "political" parameter be removed from the infobox in this article. Squideshi (talk) 19:19, 16 September 2020 (UTC)

It's been 27 days since this proposal was made, and no objections have been raised; so the parameter has been removed. Squideshi (talk) 15:17, 13 October 2020 (UTC)
