message: :Image:Nick ident.PNG is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

message: In regards to the page move, I'd like to open up this discussion about what the name of the article should be. According to Wikipedia:Naming conventions (broadcasting), I believe the correct naming protocol should be: "Nickelodeon (Australian and New Zealand TV channel)", as this adheres to the protocol and the standard of other pages. The example provided is "Channel 5 (British TV channel)" SatDis (talk) 06:43, 2 August 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: the purpose of the disambiguator is to quickly identify the specific topic for the reader, where there is some ambiguity. In this case with topics called Nickelodeon in other parts of the world. As such, the disambiguator should be as short as is necessary to do that identification, which also complies with the WP:CONCISE part of the article title policy. Adding TV channel on to the end of this disambiguator adds absolutely nothing to it, since we already know there are no things called Nickolodeon in Australia and New Zealand that aren't TV channels. It just adds extra guff for readers to read for no benefit; and the title has been stable at this name for some time now too. Cheers  — Amakuru (talk) 10:27, 2 August 2023 (UTC)
replies: text:  Understood, thanks for sharing the explanation. I guess I'm just fascinated that other Nickelodeon pages have "Asian TV channel", "Latin American TV channel", "British and Irish TV channel"... it makes the Australian one appear incorrect, seeing as all the others follow the protocol. And in terms of my thought process, I see "Nickelodeon (Australia and New Zealand)"... and I think "Australia and New Zealand what???" I know the Disney Channel (Australian TV channel) page was changed from "(Australia and New Zealand)" because that was incorrect. I'd be interested to see what others think, or if we are keeping it the same just because that's the way it has always been? Again, I do understand... just posing some questions for thought. Thanks.

replies: text:   A further argument is that the Australian "Nick Jr." page was moved from "Nick Jr. (Australia)" to "Nick Jr. (Australian TV channel)" in July 2019, and from "Nick Jr. (Australian TV channel)" to "Nick Jr. (Australia and New Zealand channel)" in November 2019. It would make sense for the Nick Jr. and Nickelodeon pages to match with the correct naming protocols. SatDis (talk) 05:36, 6 August 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: The correct naming protocols are actually to use the country only, see WP:NCBC#DisambiguationWP:CONCISE, which states . As only TV channels use this base name for Australia and New Zealand, the disambiguation should not be changed. Happily888 (talk) 12:00, 6 August 2023 (UTC)

text: *   Okay, thanks. I'm happy to let this one go. In terms of the two similar articles, perhaps something like "pay-TV" and "free-to-air" is needed for disambiguation. I'm not sure exactly how that would look. SatDis (talk) 21:26, 6 August 2023 (UTC)
