Improving the page[edit]

I think we should look to CBS Evening News, PBS NewsHour, etc, as a source for inspiration for this page. Not saying that we need to go into as much detail but the general format. As noted below the current layout is messy. This is something that will take some time to do. I'm also not sure it's worth noting the "former bulletins" which don't share the name with the 5 o'clock bulletin. They might belong on their own page, or if a cancelled programs of Channel 10 page if that exists. Seaann (talk) 14:46, 15 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Spelling/Grammar[edit]

Please do not replace presents with 'reads' - as it sounds much more professional than 'reads'. (Robbo128 05:52, 10 January 2011 (UTC))

MINOR former staffers[edit]

PLEASE do not try to put on minor TV journos on the list of "greats" who have worked at Ten News. Nice as they are, Kelly Nestor, Leigh Diffey, Ben Davis, Celina Edmonds, etc. do not cut it for such a list.

Presenters[edit]

Why was this done? Ten Early & Morning News sections (which went on hiatus), use to have much more information then they do now!

^"The presenters section of The Early News, Morning and Late News and local editions have been changed, and more orginised".

The "southern" part of this article (ie. everything after "History") is so messy.[edit]

This article, after History, goes downhill, so to speak, in a big way. The bulletins layout is just messy as! Like, does the page ever end? Can someone please organise the presenters/sports readers/weather presenters and on and on in a much more compact, tight format!?

Article Images[edit]

What about Ten News Brisbane image?

Tracey Spicer[edit]

Should the article include the drama surrounding the sacking over email of Tracey Spicer because she was to old? I believe so but i think it was because she took maternity leave. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.219.20.97 (talk) 03:51, 15 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Images[edit]

Why were the images removed? They were notable enough to warrent them being here.

warrant!

Tables/sections[edit]

It was agreed on the WIN Television talk page that these headings were unneccessary and ugly - I'd like to question why they're included here? They don't add to that article and they prevent the proper structure from appearing in the table of contents and they are inconsistent with almost any other article on Wikipedia. There's also a number of web accessibility issues that arise from using tables for layout. timgraham 03:37, 13 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The desk update[edit]

Um, is this new desk stuff really important???:

'Ten News had a recent relaunch in 2005. The graphics were changed, and there were only some minor changes to the city studios. In Sydney, the round desk was replaced with a wood-and-glass desk, with the old blue Ten News circle removed. Also, there is now a "solo" desk used for the Early Bulletin, Morning Bulletin, Weekend Bulletin and Late Bulletin. This desk is shifted accordingly. <The writing isn't sensational, to say the least.

Nope, important it ain't. I say delete. timgraham 13:14, 20 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Georgina Lewis[edit]

Georgina is now co-anchor of the Brisbane news, can we get a picture? —Preceding unsigned comment added by AusNews (talk • contribs) 10:05, 7 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Ten91.JPG[edit]

Image:Ten91.JPG is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

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. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Ten New's priviliges revoked from E.U. (formerly the U.S.A.)[edit]

Ten news with it's nearly up to the minnute coverage of Ozzy social issues along side National mandates from Chinese economic supports has been banned from view for the rest (exclusive of Australia) of the western civilized world, including the colonies (Willimantic) the midwest (South Bend) and presumably Beliese (gayteway to S. America)

Seperating Sydnee from N. and S. America is a terrific rift in the western culture. Being that westewrn civilized culture is a Metropilitian Culture and not a Cosmopolitan society such as is present in the backwater of Europe, Eurisia , the subcontinent of India or Aferica it is destrutive to the abriginal peoples of the western civilized world with culture who reject violent gang and tribal society. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.89.70.161 (talk) 16:25, 27 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
