List of programmes broadcast by Fox (African TV channel)

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Article created a day after Fox (African TV channel) left the airwaves as a spin-off to keep an unsourced list of programs that aired on the network according to the creator because it 'needs expansion' and 'We need to already know the shows that are on Fox for years'. Outside some acquired shows, it basically aired shows from the United States's Fox broadcast network and FX, so a list-of isn't needed, especially one unsourced (the only sourced presented was the network's website, which I removed per WP:PRIMARY/WP:RECENT and it probably being pulled offline soon). Removed several times from the Fox article due to not being sourced at all, so creator spun it off into this list of to keep it. PROD on unsourced grounds denied by creator.

 * Delete: Aside from being unsourced, it appears to be a complete list of all programs ever broadcast on Fox; fails WP:INDISCRIMINATE and I believe WP:NTV may provide some guidelines on this, specifically: A television or radio station's article should not contain a comprehensive listing of the station's entire broadcast schedule; this situation seems close enough for it to apply.

 * Delete. Unless there is significant original programming unique to that region, there is no need to reproduce the same list of shows that appear on the parent network. Ajf773 (talk) 09:53, 5 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete There is solid precedent for not listing programming on subsidiary channels without original content. –LaundryPizza03 ( d c̄ ) 21:17, 5 October 2021 (UTC)
 * I do agree, although I didn't get the same response when nominating similar articles three years ago: Articles for deletion/List of programmes broadcast by Fox (Italy). Ajf773 (talk) 21:57, 5 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Comment That was based on a heavy acquisition model where the IT channel wasn't just grabbing everything from Fox and calling it a day. This network though took nearly all their content from Fox and 20th Television.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 23:24, 5 October 2021 (UTC)
