replies: text: The burning of another building near this building could be mentioned in a few sentences or so, but it is unencyclopedic to devote a large section to a burning that is actually not on this building.--DerechoReguerraz (talk) 08:00, 12 February 2009 (UTC)

Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia.
This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link.
If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting.
If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page.
If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request its removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta.
When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags.
The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true.
Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.

message: Most of the sources refer to this building as the CCTV Headquarters. Why its titled CMG Headquarters and now, less sensibly, CMG Guaghua Road office area, needs to be discussed here.Bangabandhu (talk) 20:51, 4 November 2018 (UTC)

replies: text: If that's the only source you have for the name you should revert it back to the way it was before. You need an English language source that refers to it as you've suggested. Right now, its only your translation - which sounds very poorly worded, if not entirely inaccurate. Thanks. Bangabandhu (talk) 23:07, 7 November 2018 (UTC)

text: It is both CMG Guanghua Road Office Area and CCTV Headquarters. CMG Headquarters is wrong name for new CCTV Headquarters. 中央广播电视总台光华路办公区 is the official name and some websites translate 光华路办公区 into Guanghua Road Office Area such as .--MetroLe (talk) 04:12, 31 March 2020 (UTC)
replies: text:  What do you think that link says? It's from some bidding website and it may or may not even be about the building that is the subject of the article. It's not a reliable source, if it even refers to the building itself. The architect refers to the building as the CCTV Headquarters. Every English language source (that actually refers to the builiding) uses the CCTV Headquarters. Why would you change it? Bangabandhu (talk) 12:55, 31 March 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: This page title was CMG Headquarters before I changed it. The old title CMG Headquarters is a WRONG name so I changed. The WRONG title name may have led to other languages Wikipedia translation errors such as :ko:CMG 본사 빌딩, :vi:Tòa nhà trụ sở CMG. Besides, I looked up the information on China Media Group's official website such as CGTN.com. My conclusion is CMG Guanghua Road Office Area not the correct name. The official name is CMG Office Block at Guanghua Road. This official page has a video. This video shows the official name from 00:34. So this page name need to be changed to CCTV Headquarters or CMG Office Block at Guanghua Road.--MetroLe (talk) 15:12, 31 March 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: If you're going around to different pages and changing titles based on your translations from Chinese you are doing at disservice to Wikipedia and you should stop. That picture isn't helpful. We don't know anything about where it was taken and your translation may or may not be accurate. The name CMG Headquarters is referenced in at least one source. Your version has no sources. We don't know if its an "area' (which you originally used, and is highly unlikely) a "block" (which you seem to think it is now) or something else. We go by what the sources say. Change it back to CMG Headquarters or CCTV Headquarters, as the sources say. Bangabandhu (talk) 18:20, 31 March 2020 (UTC)
replies: text:  First, this is a only 38 views unofficial page published the day before yesterday. It's unavailable. Second, isn't this 2018 official page source? This video have showed the building. Third, CMG headquarters is NOT this building in fact but can this building be named CMG Headquarters because of unofficial naming?  It wasn't my own translation and my original name Guanghua Road Office Area also is an unofficial name but used by more than three English websites. So this page should to be moved to CMG Office Block at Guanghua Road or CCTV Headquarters. MetroLe (talk) 01:39, 1 April 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: Does it say "CMG Guanghua Road Office Area" in that picture? No, it doesn't. That's your translation and interpretation of it. If you want to include those Chinese characters, put them in the Chinese text that immediately follows the title of the entry at the beginning of the article. I'm glad we agree that the title of this entry should be CCTV Headquarters. Bangabandhu (talk) 13:37, 1 April 2020 (UTC)
