Template talk:Infobox broadcasting network

message: This is esoteric, as it can now handle the additional duties of a single television station, usually via the  redirect. I didn't do it, but it was done. --WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 22:25, 29 December 2005 (UTC)

:NOTE:  This refers to usage for a TV station (eg, using call letters like WXYZ), which was recently depreciated.  DO NOT USE THE ABOVE.   is correct template.  This template was meant for networks (such as ABC).  --WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 20:37, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

message: I went through and dewikified some of the terms in the infobox. For example, Key People gave links to both Key and People. Neither of those links would have been of any use.   I left in links which are useful, and when in doubt left it as it was. DynaBlast 10:09, 28 January 2006 (UTC)

message: I strongly disagree with the comment that this can be used for individual television stations.  There is an accepted standard for television stations :Template:Infobox_Broadcast.

replies: text: Infobox Television Station is completely freed up, and listed on RfD. This does 'not' necessarily mean it will be deleted, if you oppose that for whatever reason. Morgan Wick 03:15, 26 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The RfD was kept. Feel free to change the redirect. Morgan Wick 04:47, 18 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I believe it was kept to maintain histories... so it's going to be left alone.  --WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 22:39, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

message: I forgot to note this in the editing of the code, but with the closure of The WB and UPN networks, I added the closure_date field to the infobox. Thus folks don't need to try to shoehorn the info in the launch date field... — SterlingNorth 08:07, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

message: Hi. I would like to note that the country parameter should not be required but optional instead, as this wouldn't produce somewhat nonsensical rendering like in Eurovision (network) where entry for country is visible but it shouldn't be in this case, I think.

message: There are no docs for this template and there are a number of confusing parameters. Type? Branding? It would be helpful to get docs. Regards, Cyphoidbomb (talk) 19:22, 8 December 2016 (UTC)

message: Going over this template, I noticed that a few parameters seem to be depreciated or no longer active - CEO and test card, for example, no longer produce results. Going over one page (CBS), I noticed it listed revenues, etc. and it still worked but it's no longer on the template itself. Should a change be made across the board for all pages to remove/update depreciated content? Also, it might be helpful to give a description of the fields in the template at the bottom. For example, just putting "servicename" doesn't really help me know what that means. I appreciate the time and any feedback... have a great day! FriarTuck1981 (talk) 09:27, 15 February 2018 (UTC)
