 * Delete WP:CRYSTAL does not apply here as all events have a source, one show is tomorrow ffs. However WP:NOTTVGUIDE does apply which is what this article essentially is. Seasider91 (talk) 21:27, 30 August 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete Already deleted once under the title Disney Channel (UK & Ireland) Events because of WP:ADVERT and WP:NOTTVGUIDE concerns, and IPs and accounts keep trying to push this content hard into List of programmes broadcast by Disney Channel in the UK & Ireland even though it just reads as an unfiltered press release for the network by fans who show no neutrality whatsoever (in fact, this article seems to have only been created to get around a two-week semi-protect period on the List of article). The same concerns color the List of programmes broadcast by Nickelodeon (UK & Ireland) article, and I am tired of having to remove this content every time it's added to those articles as there are never any concerns addressed at all. Hopefully this can read as the final decision on adding this type of content to the List of articles so we don't have to deal with it in these forms; we're not here to be free ad space for Nick or Disney. As usual, zero what links here numbers.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 03:48, 31 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete for reasons given. The article appears to be created by a single purpose account.  Is it possible that this is the Disney Channel itself? If so, can their management be told that this is not appropriate.  If not, is there not somethin g close to a COPY-VIO?  In any event, can some one central in WP please tell them they must not do this?  Peterkingiron (talk) 14:48, 31 August 2012 (UTC)
 * It's not their management; as I said, look at the history of the "List of" article; it's a bunch of editors who won't take the point that we're not another press release dissemination point for their favorite channel (and that 98% of viewers don't care about show premieres until the day before when they see it in their EPG listings, or as most kids finds out, it just magically pops up in their DVR). Other editors have fruitlessly tried to point them towards a Wikia made just for the network where they can cruft to their heart's content, to no avail. I also have feelings about socking, but as the accounts edit at such different times and different places, an SPI would be fruitless (especially in the UK/Ireland, where an IP block would affect many more innocent computers than an American block due to their IP structure).
