– Per the Foxtel magazine, Fox Showcase rebranded back to Showcase, Fox Crime rebranded to Crime, Fox One rebranded to Foxtel One, and Fox Arena rebranded back to Arena today, I thought it would be interesting to do a move discussion related to those formerly Fox-branded channels. For instance, Fox Showcase would move back to Showcase (Australian TV channel), Crime (Australian TV channel) would move to Crime (TV channel), and Arena (Australian TV channel) would move to Arena (TV channel) or would move back to Arena (TV network). Note: Legendaryturkey and I have already moved Fox Arena to Arena (Australian TV channel), Fox Crime (Australian TV channel) to Crime (Australian TV channel) and Fox One (Australian TV channel) to both Foxtel One (Australian TV channel) and Foxtel One.

I'm pinging @Happily888, @SatDis and @Legendaryturkey, the mover of the pages mentioned in my note, in order to leave their opinions of this move discussion. Yours sincerely, TechGeek105 (his talk page) 21:40, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I also believe that Classics (Australian TV channel), Comedy (Australian TV channel) and Docos (Australian TV channel), needs to move to Classics (TV channel), Comedy (TV channel) and Docos (TV channel) respectively, because they are the only TV channels with this name worldwide.

I also agree with the move discussion. Legendaryturkey (talk) 13:26, 29 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with this move discussion, as it is necessary following the rebrand of a TV channel. - TapLover (talk) 23:58, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
It would depend on if the old name satisfies WP:NATURAL. Crouch, Swale (talk) 17:10, 29 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support per WP:NCBC#Disambiguation. I think the majority of these moves would likely have been uncontroversial, especially as the rebranded names would probably already be common names, due to the "Fox names" only being in use for three years.

  • Support most except Arena. Arena (TV platform) (Germany) has an odd disambiguator and is probably also deserving of being labeled a TV channel. Sammi Brie (she/her • tc) 07:05, 8 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
