message: Lyngsat's table of satellite transponders which carry Al Jazeera english lists about 60 transponders on several dozen satellites which carry Al Jazeera. This article in the infobox only 16 or so. The list of broadband cable networks carrying the program is certainly also not exhaustive. Besides, the satellite list would have to be sorted according to their geographic position in orbit, and the cable networks at least by continent. Wouldn't it be better just to link to the Lyngsat table for the satellite channels and for the cable networks just the names and countries? Also the "channel" indicated there is mostly wrong, since that would refer to the primary channel identified by frequency, whereas in most cases it is the LCN or Logical Channel Number (Virtual Channel in USA) which gives a number to a service contained in a digital package which occupies a real channel ie.e. frequence. Those LCNs are bound to change at will of the cable operator, and it would be too hard to keep track of those changes. This LCN is also not very intersting for somebody who has no access to this cable network, while for those who do have, they can find out by a program search or information of their cable provider. 
Nest issue is the list of presenters and journalists working for Al Jazeera english. I have seen a collapsable list of those on en.Wikipedia, but this is neither used nor linked from this article. I propose to simply include this template in collapsed form in this article instead of having a full list in the article text as such. This leaves one single place where this information has to be edited. --L.Willms (talk) 11:35, 24 November 2017 (UTC)

message: , as far as I can see, all the Channel articles have this information. Why are you removing the satellite channel Number? Is there any rule that allows removing this information ? --Walrus Ji (talk) 14:46, 18 November 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: The large international news channels such as Al Jazeera English, BBC World News, France 24, and CNN International do not have cable and satellite channel numbers because if they were all added they would take over the page .  made this change to said pages earlier this year.--Mo2010 (talk) 16:12, 18 November 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: I dont think it will take over the page. Can you please share the link for the rule ? --Walrus Ji (talk) 16:41, 18 November 2020 (UTC)
replies: text:  It was. The infobox on BBC World News was massive. Some pages—like BabyTV, another channel available in dozens of countries—had infoboxes far longer than their article content. Older versions of  supported as many as 30 satellite and 20 cable providers, and some of the news channel articles exceeded that by a large margin. That resulted in an edit request to increase the cap to 50. The reply from User:MSGJ was instructive: "Just my opinion, but that is an absolutely ridiculous number for an infobox." MOS:INFOBOXPURPOSE states,  As a result, as part of a much-needed technical overhaul of the template, I reduced its parameter capacity to a more reasonable number and moved to pare down infoboxes. Raymie (t • c) 18:23, 18 November 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: I see. Thanks for the detailed reply. I was not aware of all that. I withdraw my objections and I will not restore my edit any more. That said, can I move this content from the Infobox to the article body? I do believe this information is beneficial for the readers. --Walrus Ji (talk) 18:32, 18 November 2020 (UTC)

It is established to show Islamic Supermacy in media. Al-Jazeera is a hate filled news channel, which has published many misleading and propaganda promoting articles against India and it's majority Hindu citizens.  It is a left oriented biased media platform. It's Hinduphobic Ideology can be clearly seen by it's articles.  It has published fake news many times.

message: Despite Starmer's attack on the Labour left, all the article said about this major news story was: 'The Labour Files, a four-part series based on what it stated to be the "largest leak of documents in British political history",[51] which aims to show that "a coup by stealth" was conducted against the then Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn.'
Given the importance of such recent/major events, might not the limit section on The Labour Files be expanded and additional/'background information added?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.151.2.120 (talk) 19:47, 26 April 2023 (UTC)
