Another contested redirect. Right now there are zero independent, reliable, secondary sources. Fails WP:GNG. Would have restored the redirect, but that's no longer an option.  Onel 5969  TT me 10:26, 26 March 2023 (UTC)

 * Redirect to List of programs broadcast by GTV (Philippine TV network): as WP:ATD. SALT if possible. SeanJ 2007 (talk) 13:04, 26 March 2023 (UTC) Delete per nom. SeanJ 2007 (talk) 23:33, 26 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete Such a generic television newscast name, it's not limited to the Philipines for sure, and for a generic regional newscast to boot.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 21:21, 26 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete: A newscast name like that pretty much says "run-of-the-mill" right off the bat; it would probably be very difficult to find any GNG-satisfying sources, regardless of whether they even exist.  WC  Quidditch  ☎   ✎  22:17, 27 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete fails WP:NTVNATL. No good hits in GNews archives as well. I would have suggested a redirect to List of programs broadcast by GTV (Philippine TV network) had the this entry was less generic. -- Lenticel ( talk ) 07:04, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete: Don't redirect - this name is incredibly generic (most countries in the world have some form of "regional TV news") and it is likely to simply confuse. It's like having an article called "Weather Forecast" which discusses a single TV station's weather forecast. Flip Format (talk) 09:36, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
 * I'd be the contrarian here and go with a redirect (and rename). I've seen this a couple of times on weekends, and I don't think it's even referred to by the network as simply "Regional TV News", but as "GMA Regional TV News". That said, not notable enough to merit its own articles as mentioned by the others; however, a redirect (with the "GMA" prefix) is better given the circumstances. --- Tito Pao (talk) 06:27, 30 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete, but create redirect with "GMA" prefix - because "Regional TV News" have generically used in most countries, but with the "GMA" prefix it would be the preferrable option. I'll take this to WP:AFC/R and create the "GMA Regional TV News" redirect, which will target to GTV's program list.

 * Rename as GMA Regional TV News and redirect to List of programs broadcast by GTV (Philippine TV network) since it's the appropriate title. Fails WP:NTV per nom. SBKSPP (talk) 22:40, 31 March 2023 (UTC)
