Talk:HSV (TV station)

Is the Television station of greater importance than all other Three Letter Acronyms "HSV"
Note to future: the next Herpes Simplex Virus to be discovered will no doubt be named HSV-7, like the six human herpes simplex viruses before it... -- Someone else 05:28 Apr 8, 2003 (UTC)


 * No, the article should be moved. In fact, this article has taken the redirect for merely "HSV", which is rather impolite. The station is HSV-7, and as a highly important television station of global importance, it shall take its place of honor in the HSV disambiguation page, where it belongs.  An alternative might be, HSV_(television_station) or even Television Station HSV. ManVhv 21:38, 14 July 2007 (UTC)

Disagreement over the correct name of the station

 * It's not called HSV-7 anymore because it was made into a Network. Now it's the Seven Network. Seven Melbourne was called HSV-7 because it only broadcasted in Melbourne.. now it broadcasts in all the states - Networked. --Jamesbehave 11:05, 20 November 2005 (UTC)

The Seven Network now refers to HSV-7 as its South Melbourne Studios (managed by Global Television) where Melbourne-based shows like "Deal or No Deal", "Wheel of Fortune", "It Takes Two", and "Dancing with the Stars" is tape-recorded. The main Seven Network station in Melbourne is now located at the Docklands and is referred to as 7BCM (Broadcast Centre Melbourne). At 7BCM the entire Seven Network is broadcast in a centralised environment. The Docklands Studio is also the home of Seven News Melbourne.

Jamesbehave, The Seven Network outlet in Melbourne still has the official call-sign HSV-7, although this is rarely used on-air, and even though now the station also simulcasts in digital on VHF channel 6. Television stations in Australia (commercial, ABC, SBS and community stations) all still have proper call-signs assigned (mostly for regulatory reasons) but with networking arrangements and sometimes varied frequencies, these are rarely used on-air. --Andjb 14:15, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

This article features the page history merged from two articles. Those edits made on 14 November 2005 and before were made on the HSV-7 article, whereas those made between 20 November 2005 and 28 January 2006 were made on the Seven Melbourne page. - Mark 09:00, 28 January 2006 (UTC)

To Jamesbehave.

About the confusion over what year HSV-7 ran "Say Hello", I'm pretty certain that it was used in 1986 because in '87 all Seven Network stations went into uniformity. ATN-7 had "Let's All Be There" while the other branches used similar Idents but kept the music the same. Eddie Blake 18:12, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

What are people's thoughts on the pre-network logos that I've uploaded? Eddie Blake 12 January 2007 (UTC)

That's the boilerplate. Here's the deal. I'm adding this warning because another editor has tagged the image as it does not have a fair use rationale for this article. (It has one for the other article that uses it.) I figure this article's editors deserve fair notice before the image is stripped from the article, so I decided I'd give you a heads-up.

Slogans
I'm very strongly tempted to delete them all, as well as the somewhat pathetic (since there are actual images of them all over the place) descriptions of the old logos. I've condensed them into columns so that they don't take up the space that they did but I still really don't think they belong in the article - I'm pretty sure there was a page somewhere saying WP wasn't just a dumping ground for random lists..

There are plenty of other websites that have that sort of information anyway, so I don't see why they really need to go here. timgraham 05:03, 25 August 2007 (UTC)
 * I agree Tim, the slogans and descriptions of old logos are unconfirmed and uncited, and I agree with you in that they don't belong in the article. Besides List of Seven Network slogans, already serves the purpose. Stickeylabel 05:11, 25 August 2007 (UTC)
 * I have now removed the uncited section as per WP:Cite as when as WP:NOT. Stickeylabel 05:19, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:7nmen2.jpg
Image:7nmen2.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 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 uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Production
Yes! Wheel of Fortune is definitely taped and based in HSV's South Melbourne studios, Bidgee!
