[edit] Expand re Australia Television International

I've added a redirect 'with possibilities', Australia Television International, as this article could at least have a paragraph, and perhaps a complete article, on this precursor channel. Mark Hurd 10:26, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

There is already a redirect of Australia Television, which is the correct name of the channel. Stickeylabel 10:34, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

There was a channel launched in 1993 (according to this article) that I believe was called Australia Television International, which is what was mentioned at History of the Australian Broadcasting Corporation. (I only added the [[ ]].) The way this article reads they are the same entity, though that is not my understanding. (I definitely could be wrong on that.)

In a few minutes I'll do a Google search for references... Mark Hurd 10:48, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

I've compared the Google results for "Australia Television International" versus the first few pages of "Australia Television", and the ABC site only. I definitely didn't see any evidence that the entity launched in 1993 was called just Australia Television. I've added a reference. Mark Hurd 12:06, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

Thanks Mark Hurd :), I always presumed it was Australia Television, but thanks for the correction. It would be great to see you at WikiProject Australian television, and I hope you join the project. Thanks. Stickeylabel 13:12, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Logos

I'm fairly sure that ABC Asia Pacific never used a stacked logo like the one in the gallery - IIRC it had the logo to the left, like most other ABC corporate logos. timgraham 14:00, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sky News Australia

While there were Sky News Australia programs on the channel for a period, I don't think they provided the main "news bulletins", and that these were not replaced by those from the ABC. I though the ABC bulletins were there before, during and after; with Sky News providing suplimentary news programming. matturn 11:06, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
