Talk:BBC Radio 5 Live

message: Before the news format - 5 live was obviously a slightly different station: BBC_Radio_5_(former)BBC_Radio_5_(former). Should the two articles be merged? There is a lot of similarity and it isn't clear that there are two articles...

message: Do we need to edit all the references from 'Five Live' to '5 Live' now?--Tibbs2 10:50, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Apparently, the name is actually BBC Radio 5live, according to the BBC website (yes, it does look silly. Not my fault...) -- LondonStatto 08:45, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Name change to 5 Live 

message: According to Section 1.7.7 of Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not Wikipedia is not a TV/Radio guide. Can I suggest rather than delete all the information it should be reorganised into a Presenters and Programmes section? Sonic 17:41, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

message: The comment that Five Live launched a BBC Radio 5 isn't right, when the name change the purpose and content of the radio station changed, just a BBC Choice closed and was replaced by CBBC and BBC Three, BBC Knowledge was closed and replaced by cBeebies and BBC FOUR and so on.  It would be much better to have a 'BBC Radio 5' page and treat Five Live as a new network. Briantist 20:05, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: BBC Radio 5 and BBC Radio Five Live

message: Should the slogans be strictly from the web site, or should we also use the on-air imaging eg "On DAB digital radio...", etc.? Radiopathy •talk•   15:56, 21 August 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Slogans 

message: The current situation is not ideal. BBC Radio 5 (former) is a short article and it would be better to merge it here, so that readers could have the full history in one article. Although there are some differences between the old Radio 5 and Five Live, it is misleading to give the impression (not entirely cleared up by the disambiguation in the header) that the station started its life in 1994.--♦IanMacM♦ (talk to me) 08:45, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Merger proposal

message: It's absurd to pretend that a cosmetic relaunch constitutes the starting of a new radio-station. All the BBC did was move things around a bit and rebrand the station. The BBC is constantly tweaking its offerings. It's unencyclopaedic to fall for such a marketing ploy.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.189.103.145 (talk) 17:29, 19 July 2011 (UTC)
