List of StarHub TV and mio TV channels

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Current channel listing that clearly fails WP:NOTDIR, a constantly changing channel guide and directory similar to an electronic program guide. See overwhelming consensus for deleting channel lineups at other recent AfDs Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of AT&T U-verse channels, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List_of DirecTV channels (2nd nomination), Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of channels on Sky, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2nd bundle of channel lineups, and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/3rd bundle of channel lineups. -- Wikipedical (talk) 18:43, 8 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy delete - this is settled community consensus by now; why are we having to step gingerly through these? --Orange Mike | Talk 18:54, 8 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Because "falls under the same rationale as prior AFDs" is not a speedy deletion criterion, nor should it be. I'd be all for a mass AFD nomination of all such remaining lists (how many are there?), provided they are all of the same limited kind. postdlf (talk) 19:17, 8 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  - I will note that I listed Category:Lists of television channels by company today, and there aren't any lists left there. This StarHub/mio list was created today. Because channel listings were removed from cable provider articles based on our AfD discussions, the content may now be moved by other editors to new standalone lists like this one. -- Wikipedical (talk) 19:21, 8 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete and to OrangeMike, when I started these AFDs, I wanted to keep batches small just in case there is a fair counterargument to their deletion. The fact that some have took the channel lines by provider AFD concensuses and applied it to any channel listing (Eg the one about New York state channels) does show why there is merit is baby steps in deletion just to make sure we don't burn anything too soon. --MASEM (t) 18:58, 8 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
delete - its a NOTDIR fail, and only primary sources fail as well -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 19:01, 8 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete To continue this very welcome process of cleaning up the project, I agree that this article is a clear breach of NOTDIR, and should therefore be deleted. I can't see any justification for keeping this article, or remnants from it, on the Wikipedia. doktorb _words^deeds 19:03, 8 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, I agree with the above and the arguments in the past AFDs that such lists fail NOTDIR, because they are just ephemeral directories of the TV services provided by individual companies. postdlf (talk) 19:17, 8 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Same as before. Gigs (talk) 19:19, 8 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, As per other deletion discussions these lists fail NOTDIR. Stuart.Jamieson (talk) 23:29, 8 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete- Too bad because it's nicely formatted. Unfortunately it belongs in an encyclopedia about as much as an article about String theory belongs in the TV Guide. Per WP:NOTDIR. - Mr X 21:19, 11 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Expand - We wanted to urge the expansion so that in case there will be more channels (Which is incomplete as a result), be it as a cross-carriage channels (StarHub TV > mio TV). It needs to either split it into StarHub TV and mio TV, or if not can put it together.

These should reopen Sky Digital channels since it might be very hard. Timothyhouse1 (talk) 12:17, 12 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The expansion of one directory article into two directory articles does not address the concerns that Wikipedia is not a directory. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 15:24, 12 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

delete per NOTDIR and various other discussions. MarnetteD | Talk 22:08, 12 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
