Talk:RTÉ News

message: This sounds a lot like marketing material, no?
- I would agree with you. It's totally promotional, and really is unnecessary. There is no need for a dedicated page on Wikipedia to toot the horn of the News team. It's not that relevant.

message: Why is this page being permitted as an article. I don't see, as per Wikipedia guidelines, why it should require a separate article, and could not merely be placed under a subheading of RTE. I have raised the concern. Davidlive (talk) 11:20, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

replies: text: I would have doubts about merging as well, especially since this section of RTÉ now has its own template which makes it clear that (although incomplete) RTÉ News and Current Affairs has produced and continues to produce a lot of radio and television programmes "for such a small broadcaster". And that is another point - RTÉ, like BBC, has combined radio and television output for decades. Add to that the fact that its main rivals, TV3 (television,launched September 1998) and Today FM (radio, launched March 1997, - Newstalk is even newer to the national airwaves, launched 2006 but with only 80% coverage), are recent innovations and the people of Ireland weren't left with much else to watch for nearly forty years and listen to for over seventy years... added to that, RTÉ.ie: ", it is among the top 5000 most visited websites globally, by Alexa rankingshttp://www.alexa.com/data/details/traffic_details/rte.ie|Alexa Rankings and among the top 20 sites in Irelandhttp://www.alexa.com/site/ds/top_sites?cc=IE&ts_mode=country&lang=none| Alexa Profile on Ireland, with certified impressions of over 55 million per month and almost 2.4 million unique usershttp://www.abce.co.uk/ABCE_PDFS/RTE1008w.pdf|ABC Electronic International Audit Report" - surely some of these are going there for the news? So no, I oppose a merger. --candle•wicke 23:59, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I think this debate is gone. I obviously oppose any change. I recently expanded the page, adding history. I also have expanded the RTÉ News and Current Affairs template. Can I have someone to second closing the merger?   Cargoking  talk  11:08, 28 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Oppose any merger or deletion. Page simply needs some balancing and restyling, perhaps.Plenty of references are now present too.howth575 (talk) 21:46, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

replies: text: RTÉ News and Current Affairs →  – Per WP:CRITERIA. A very basic search led to "RTÉ News" on YouTube, on Twitter, on "The official Facebook page of RTÉ News", a recent press release on its website, as well as on the logo which is included in the infobox. Perhaps the title could be moved but the opening sentence (which already includes "RTÉ News") could stay the same - similar to RTÉ and "Raidió Teilifís Éireann (RTÉ)"?
