Redirect repeatedly contested without sources. Article in its current state does not pass WP:GNG. Jalen Folf (talk) 04:41, 5 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

We've been getting a lot of bad Vietnam TV pages lately, but there's little I can do about them. The vnwiki article is similarly list-formatted. I do note that, if the sources can be found (and I suspect that nearly all of them are in Vietnamese), this would be a GNG-clobberer based on the information that needs to be referenced. Keep if the sources can be found. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 06:14, 5 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Article quality isn't great, but that's not our job. It's a thing, it's part of a national broadcast network. WP:BROADCASTOUTCOMES: "Most national and regional pay television (cable, satellite, linear streaming) services are likely to be notable." Sourcing, Vietnamese not being my long suit, is admittedly problematic but it's likely we're past WP>GNG... Best Alexandermcnabb (talk) 11:10, 5 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
If redirection has been repeatedly contested then there should be a talk page discussion, per WP:BRD. Why is there not? Phil Bridger (talk) 20:55, 6 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Redirect to Ho Chi Minh City Television We're not going to delete the article of a major national broadcast network...but also, we're not going to keep an enthusiast site-formatted chronology which is poor quality. Nate • (chatter) 23:05, 12 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Ho Chi Minh City Television per Mrschimpf. No opposition to a merge outcome if anyone who can check the Vietnamese sources wants to take responsibility for that. — Charles Stewart (talk) 08:06, 13 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
