[edit] Bite TV

Reads like advertising, does not meet WP:CORP, advertising spilling over into the last edit on http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Mississauga%2C_Ontario&direction=next&oldid=68614345 Mucus 22:34, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

• Keep - Just because an article describes something doesn't mean it's advertising it. Nevertheless, I have edited the text with an NPOV (it probably took me far less time to edit than it did for you to put up this AfD), so there's no reason to delete it now (Keep speedy if nom withdrawn).

Comment: I must admit, the argument that the article is advertising is much weaker now that the original article has been edited. But be patient, since I am kind of new at article deletion and the original nomination was well, for the original article. Another comment is that I still fail to see how this meets WP:CORP. A Google search does not reveal much besides reprints of press releases and the one most prominent article is non-critical from a local paper, thestar.com. According to the first point at notability, it should not qualify and it clearly does not qualify for the other two criteria. Mucus 13:37, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

• Keep most TV networks are notable, even cable ones. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 22:49, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
• Keep I don't see any form of advertising going on in this article, it clearly states what the channel is just like any other television channel that has an article. User:Cdn_boi
• Keep per above. OzLawyer 22:22, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
• Keep; providing it is a legal entity under CRTC regulations, the location is fine, and it sounds like it might become a form of broadcasting that will set a future standard! Bacl-presby 22:55, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
