 * Weak Keep, I would not say that this article is quite promotional, but could use some better sources. Overall, weak keep. — Moops  ⋠ T ⋡ 06:24, 29 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete This is a hotel room channel; unless somehow there's news and opinion programming on what is something designed to sell the country to someone already there, there's no WP:N that can be mined here as the programming loops and never changes, thus a native will likely only watch this network once.

 * Hi, I used the program details mentioned on their website, ( Names of the programs ) but removed as source was not proper. I didn't mentioned about the Ex Prime Minister of Pakistan "Imran Khan" vision about this channel, please check this source. https://www.bolnews.com/tag/discover-pakistan-tv-channel/ Do you this this should be the part of the article? As I already tagged my self having an conflict of interest with this Channel, But I wanted to contribute to the encyclopedia because its "'First Tourism TV" in Pakistan & has a Significant Media coverage, I tried to provide all the information with available resources and Links.
 * I hope the community will improve it better. Thank you. Ihaiders1 (talk) 04:22, 4 January 2023 (UTC)

I might be introducing my own opinion here but I'd like to see additional support to retain an infomercial infotainment channel. They are typically not considered encyclopedic because they are purely commercial. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read! Talk! 04:00, 5 January 2023 (UTC)

 * Hi Just want to give a small input, According to "Pemra" Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority. Discover Pakistan TV is an Satellite TV channel Falls in "Tourism" & Infotainment Category with Information & entertainment programs. Its not infomercial channel. https://pemra.gov.pk/uploads/licensing/stv/list_of_licences_issued_stv.pdf

 * Comment I will at least agree with this; it's not a paid programming channel but a promotional tourist information channel. There is a difference between the two types of channels.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 01:16, 6 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Yes, that was my mistake. I mixed up "infomercial" with "infotainment." Liz Read! Talk! 02:35, 7 January 2023 (UTC)
