message: See Talk:ABT (TV station) and Talk:ABC Television (Australian TV network). There are similar issues with all of the articles in the group (listed in this section of the ABC history article). I started updating Canberra, Tasmania, South Australia, Brisbane and Western Australia, but currently out of steam (and there may well be changes that need to be applied to all of them, so don't want to waste my time).

text: Weak oppose I can't seem to find any evidence that any sources have cared about these name changes (probably because of how confusing it made everything :P), so I'm opposing for now per WP:NAMECHANGE. I think it's more likely that I am simply really bad at searching for this, so if you can find some evidence that sources care about this name change and have been using the new name I will support.

replies: text: https://www.acma.gov.au/sites/default/files/2023-04/stations_book_electronic_edition.pdf#page155, this source confirms all of the TV stations owned by the ABC have the callsign, ABC, @Snowmanonahoe Yours sincerely, TechGeek105 (his talk page) 03:19, 23 April 2023 (UTC)
replies: text:  one source isn’t quite enough—to justify a page move it should be shown that the majority of sources since the name change have begun using the new name. Snowmanonahoe (talk) 03:51, 23 April 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Even the ABC itself just uses the term ABC for their TV stations. They do not mention the old callsigns at all. Yours sincerely, TechGeek105 (his talk page) 04:57, 23 April 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: According to iview, https://iview.abc.net.au/collection/live-streams, they use ABC TV [state/territory name] instead. Yours sincerely, TechGeek105 (his talk page) 04:59, 23 April 2023 (UTC)

replies: text: I tend to agree with TechGeek - I have never heard or read these names used since I've been in Australia, which is several decades now. They are not commonly used, and IMO just serve to confuse. Laterthanyouthink (talk) 08:31, 23 April 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: I think the same thing, and I have never heard the callsigns spoken except ABC, @Laterthanyouthink. Yours sincerely, TechGeek105 (his talk page) 09:31, 23 April 2023 (UTC)

text: Oppose, These were the historical names, much live ATN, GTV, HSV, TCN etc are for the Seven and Nine Networks. While they now all operate under the one brand today, they were for a long time separate. A flick through the relevant newspapers for each of the cities from the 1950s shows that these were the names actually used. Juheerere (talk) 03:01, 24 April 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: After the 1950s it was just known as ABC, and still is to this day, @Juheerere. Yours sincerely, TechGeek105 (his talk page) 07:32, 24 April 2023 (UTC)
