Orphaned non-free image File:9Now logo.png

 

Thanks for uploading File:9Now logo.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 18:24, 10 December 2015 (UTC)Reply

List of digital television channels in Australia

@Billy Liakopoulos: Hi. In the table for the Seven Network, why are you frequently changing the name "Untitled New Channel" to "Untitled Seven's fifth digital Channel"? The original title was placed there as the channel is currently untitled and because it is listed as "New Channel" on any EPG. Adding in the "Seven's fifth digital Channel" part is unnecessary as readers can already see from the table that it is Seven's fifth digital channel and the extra text in that cell distorts the size of the cell to an unnecessarily large size for a channel that has not even begun broadcasting. – Nick Mitchell 98 talk 02:58, 29 December 2015 (UTC)Reply

ABC HD relaunch

@Billy Liakopoulos: Hi. Thank you for adding the information about ABC HD's relaunch to the channel's article. However, as a heads-up, next time you add in details about a channel launch or relaunch to an article, can you please include a credible source to support your edit? I was about to remove your uncredited information until I did a quick search myself and found a credible source which I have added to the article. Thanks again for your edit. – Nick Mitchell 98 talk 06:57, 4 January 2016 (UTC)Reply

  Hi there! Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:

Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)

Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.

Nomination of PLUS7 for deletion

 

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article PLUS7 is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PLUS7 (2nd nomination) until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. DGG ( talk ) 05:28, 11 January 2016 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited List of programs broadcast by Network Ten, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Uptight and Dangermouse (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Editing without references

@Billy Liakopoulos: Hi. Thank you for expanding the information that I added about Ten HD's revival to other articles. However, next time you do this, please include the sources cited on the original article to support the new information? I notified you about this in December 2015, so I'm just reminding you again to make sure. I have corrected these errors.

Also, until an official statement is released by Network Ten stating otherwise, Ten HD's destination channel should be kept as channel 1 due to the fact that channel 1 is the channel that Ten makes their HD broadcasts, and all other revived HD channels have been returned to their original channel number.

ABC Television template changes

@Billy Liakopoulos: Hi. I noticed that you reverted my edits to Template:ABC Television that were made to bring the template in line with the format of other similar television templates (e.g. Template:Nine Entertainment). I wish to discuss the situation with you and see your reasoning for your edit. – Nick Mitchell 98 talk 07:59, 18 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

Network Ten

@Billy Liakopoulos: Hi. After thorough and lengthy research, I made detailed and time consuming edits to Network Ten, Ten HD, One and Eleven that corrected the channel name stylisations to all-caps. This is supported by all of Ten Network Holdings' annual reports (e.g. 2015, 2011 and 2006) and other official media (e.g. [1], [2], and [3]). My case is well supported, and I clearly noted this in my edit summaries, however, you reverted my edits without contacting me asking me about my reasoning. I would like to discuss this matter with you and come to an understanding. – Nick Mitchell 98 talk 05:19, 20 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

@Billy Liakopoulos: Please come here to discuss the issue first before you revert my edits like you have just done at Network Ten. – Nick Mitchell 98 talk 09:12, 20 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

Categories and subcategories

I've just reverted a few of your resent edits, eg [4][5]. Please have a look at WP:SUBCAT, in particular:

a page or category should rarely be placed in both a category and a subcategory or parent category (supercategory) of that category"

Please consider reverting your recent edits where you added a parent of an existing category. Thanks, Mitch Ames (talk) 11:26, 11 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

Re [6] and similar - again I ask that you please read WP:SUBCAT.
Category:National Basketball League (Australia) venues is a subcategory of Category:Basketball venues in Australia, Brisbane Convention & Exhibition Centre (and others) is in Category:National Basketball League (Australia) venues, therefore it ought not also be directly in Category:Basketball venues in Australia, because according to WP:SUBCAT

a page or category should rarely be placed in both a category and a subcategory or parent category (supercategory) of that category

If you think that Category:National Basketball League (Australia) venues ought not be a subcategory of Category:Basketball venues in Australia, then please remove it.
If you think that one of these categories should be a {{Non-diffusing subcategory}} or {{All included}}, as described in WP:DUPCAT, then please say so, and/or update the categories according.
If you think there is some reason why WP:SUBCAT should not apply to these articles, please say so explicitly, so that we can discuss why.
If you don't understand my objection, please say so, so that I can try to explain better.
In any case edit-warring is not the answer.
Thank-you, Mitch Ames (talk) 03:38, 17 April 2016 (UTC)Reply
Similarly Kingborough Sports Centre (and others) that are in Category:Defunct National Basketball League (Australia) venues ought not also be directly in Category:Basketball venues in Australia, because they are already in it indirectly - Kingborough Sports Centre is in Category:Defunct National Basketball League (Australia) venues, which is in Category:National Basketball League (Australia) venues, which is in Category:Basketball venues in Australia. Hence my reversions [7] etc. If you still disagree, please discuss the matter. Mitch Ames (talk) 11:27, 19 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

Caution against cut and paste page moves

Hi Billy. Thank you for your edits to Australian TV articles in the wake of the 2016 media shakeup. However, there is one critical detail that you have overlooked, by performing a cut and paste page move from Southern Cross Ten to Southern Cross Nine, you have damaged the page edit history of the original article. All that you needed to do was request a page move at WP:RMT, which I have done. Please try to avoid repeating this mistake in future. If you are unable to move a page in future, please go to the appropriate forum to request an administrator perform the move instead. Regards. – Nick Mitchell 98 talk 14:46, 30 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

Free-to-air television channels in Australia

Hi, I've reverted your edit which reverted my edit to Template:Free-to-air television channels in Australia.

Edit summary request

  Hello. I have noticed that you often edit without using an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. Even a short summary is better than no summary, and summaries are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. To help yourself remember, you may wish to check the "prompt me when entering a blank edit summary" box in your preferences. Thanks! - 220 of Borg 09:07, 11 September 2016 (UTC)Reply
