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.

message: Please note that until a rebranding of A-Channel as "MuchTV" or "CHUM TV" actually happens, it is not necessary (or even appropriate, under WP:CRYSTAL) to discuss it in each individual station's article in addition to discussing it in A-Channel. Please refer to Talk:A-Channel for discussion if you disagree. Bearcat (talk) 20:02, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: [[A-Channel]]

message: : Individual newscasts on local television stations don't really meet our inclusion standards on Wikipedia. However, a larger article on A-Channel News in general, which can include segments on the various local newscasts, is likely to be acceptable. (That's the same reasoning by which this is one article about three different shows rather than three separate articles.) Bearcat (talk) 15:51, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

replies: text: Try a Google search with quotation marks on each side of the slogan.єmarsee (Discuss) 18:14, 3 January 2009 (UTC)

text: You're attempting to reference the statement to the station's own webpage. It's been explained to you before that references on Wikipedia need to be independent of the article subject. And for the record, we really don't want or need detailed slogan histories to be listed in television station articles — it's pure trivia of the type that really doesn't belong in an encyclopedia article at all. Bearcat (talk) 18:44, 3 January 2009 (UTC)

text: Sigh... It looks now we are resorting to sockpuppetry, eh? єmarsee (Discuss) 21:11, 3 January 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Perhaps, the slogans could be added as a subsection under the history section.Jamie Shaw 08:59, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: The slogans are trivial and unimportant and don't add any value. Why are you so determined to have them in the article? Bearcat (talk) 16:44, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: That was just a suggestion. I think it's trivial too.Jamie Shaw 10:18, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm just trying to understand why certain people are so insistent that past slogans have to be reflected in the article. There's been a constant revert war going on for weeks now, and still nobody's explained why it needs to be there at all. So far, the only answer I've gotten is that listing the slogans is necessary in order to show the slogans, which is a textbook example of what used to be called begging the question before that phrase's original meaning got garbled. Bearcat (talk) 23:57, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

text: Dongwong, if you want slogans to be included in this article, please discuss with WP:TVS to come up with a consensus whether it should be allowed. єmarsee (Discuss) 00:18, 7 January 2009 (UTC)

text: Once again, if you believe it will benefit the article, discuss with WP:TVS, they decide what goes into TV station article and what does not. єmarsee (Discuss) 05:32, 7 January 2009 (UTC)

message: It is stated that CHRO used an MCTV ident during the years it was under the Baton Broadcast System. This is not correct as can be found on several videos on YouTube of CHRO idents of the time, which show they clearly were allowed to show their own call letters. Some examples:
* https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DVk72RCAxYM?t=42
* https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pLuMl00-pMA
* https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jb7cmAVwLfw?t=4
Article should be upgraded to reflect this.
