[edit] DISH Network Corporation

EchoStar Communications Corporation is now known as DISH Network Corporation. --KJRehberg (talk) 17:05, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

Does there need to be an article on the Echostar half of the business now. Much of the info on this page now refers to the half that is now called Echostar Corporation.Rankersbo (talk) 13:50, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Dish/Echostar demerger

I think there needs to be a cleanup- Satellite info is listed both here with DNC who lease the service, and Echostar who own and operate them.Rankersbo (talk) 08:54, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Requested move

The result of the proposal was PAGE MOVED per discussion below. -GTBacchus(talk) 02:40, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

DISH Network Corporation → Dish Network Corporation — Current name is a violation of WP:MOSTM, which states we should not use odd capitalization just because the trademark owner wants us to. Precedence includes the articles on TIME being at Time, and the article on this companies own product (Dish Network). —TJ Spyke 05:18, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
