Source-derived summary

WPCJ (91.1 FM) is a radio station licensed to Pittsford, Michigan broadcasting a religious format.

Editorial summary

This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “WPCJ” as radio station in Pittsford, Michigan. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.

Editorial reviewMost useful as a place-based finding aid connecting the present description to earlier jurisdictions, maps and built evidence. The current 15-word lead offers orientation but no explicit four-digit date, so chronology should not be assumed. The linked authority record independently contributes the date 1984. The account is most persuasive where WPCJ, radio and station can be independently traced.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The subject matters to the places & architecture register because the source frames it as radio station in Pittsford, Michigan. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.

Evidence profile

The strongest evidence will usually combine a dated visual record with documents produced by the authority responsible for the place. The source revision retrieved here is dated Feb 24, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q14716337. Authority coordinates are 41.884, -84.471. 3 of 3 selected statements include explicit references; 1 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank.

Critical limits

A single description cannot reconcile every naming convention, rebuilding phase or administrative transfer associated with a place. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Treat names, boundaries and functions as historically changeable. Maps, plans, inventories and administrative records can clarify what the place meant at different dates.
