Unreferenced arbitrary list of programs. Not notable in its own right. Rathfelder (talk) 10:27, 11 November 2018 (UTC)

 * Keep per WP:LISTPURP and WP:CLN. No valid argument for deletion has been presented and the nominator fails to demonstrate a basic understanding of the content. I'm at a loss to see what about this list is "arbitrary", as the inclusion criteria is clear and determined by a significant fact shared by the entries. Indexing TV series by their originating broadcast network is standard, and nearly every bluelink in this list notes in those series' individual articles that they first aired on this network. Whether this list should also include acquired series or nonnotable series for sake of completion, or whether it ultimately should be merged into the parent article TV One (Pakistan) if WP:SIZE does not merit a WP:SPLIT are questions for ordinary editing and development that need not (and should not) be resolved here. On sourcing, I see no serious question as to whether this information is verifiable and that's all that is relevant to deletion. As a side note, Category:TVOne Global should be renamed to match the parent article TVOne Pakistan, and also likely to Category:TVOne Pakistan series to better reflect its content and match the other members of Category:Television series by network. postdlf (talk) 14:49, 11 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep a valid topic for a list as there are many others as shown above and it is a valid split from the main article as it is quite a long list, passes WP:NLIST references are easily found for improvement Atlantic306 (talk) 14:59, 11 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Wouldn't a category of "Programs Broadcast by TV One" serve the same purpose more effectively?Rathfelder (talk) 16:11, 11 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Not necessarily, and see WP:NOTDUP. postdlf (talk) 16:41, 11 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep per reasons outlined by postdlf and Atlantic306 -- Whats new?(talk) 03:06, 13 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep. This needs cleanup including a title change. While most of the list is unsourced there still exists some programming that appears to be original broadcasts (and which have articles), which is acceptable. I support trimming the excess and retaining the more verifiable and useful content. Ajf773 (talk) 19:24, 13 November 2018 (UTC)
