The entire article is in violation of Wikipedia policy seen at WP:NOTDIRECTORY, which says that Wikipedia cannot be a programming guide for broadcasters. Binksternet (talk) 17:04, 22 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Six years ago, a previous deletion discussion ended in "delete." See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of programs broadcast by Network Ten. So that article is obviously a recreation of deleted material. Binksternet (talk) 17:19, 22 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Redirects pointing to these deleted articles would also have to be deleted. Binksternet (talk) 17:36, 22 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

A similar deletion discussion is underway regarding TV programming templates. See Wikipedia:Templates for discussion/Log/2017 June 22#Template:Australian television channel programming templates. Binksternet (talk) 18:03, 22 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Strong keep: Lists of notable historically significant programs are not in breach of NOTDIRECTORY. Did you even read it? "although mention of major events, promotions or historically significant program lists and schedules may be acceptable" which is exactly what these all are -- Whats new?(talk) 22:22, 22 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
