Channels section restored

I restored the Channels section to the article (diff). It was previously removed with the edit summary "minus promo" (diff), but the lists are not promotional in tone, and consist entirely of blue-links to highly relevant Wikipedia articles that are directly related to this topic. The lists also function as a valid navigational aid as per WP:LISTPURP. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 14:51, 24 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

How to promote advertising...

By the way: the channels are also mentioned in a navigation template. The Banner talk 14:58, 19 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Add channels of Viacom 18

I think we should add channels from Viacom 18 too. Ramsoni322 (talk) 15:59, 11 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Move the page to JioStar

JioStar is the name used as title on official website. Jio has long history of naming it's product without any space like JioCinema JioSaavan, JioTV, JioChat and many more. you can check the full list at Jio Wikipedia page. Abdullateefsherani (talk) 07:21, 13 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

First, you will need to read the message on your talk page as it relates to WP:COI. As far as the move, we go by what sources say. Funny how the company mentions the creation of its own Wikipedia page here, but it is also stated as Jio Star, not JioStar. --CNMall41 (talk) 07:58, 13 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Move this page to JioStar

I tried to move Disney Star page to JioStar page, but Wiki didn't allow it, reason given that this page already exists. Hence, had to move to a this page, someone with more rights may try. Indedits (talk) 08:58, 15 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

JioStar is a redirect, so you can't move to it. You can ask an administrator to do it for you at requested technical moves. Nyakase (talk ) 09:07, 15 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Move the page to JioStar.

Someone again moved the page to Disney Star, with is the old name. Please move the page back to JioStar. AngadSingh2004 (talk) 02:24, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Read the section above - moving this without consensus or sources is disruptive. Ravensfire (talk) 02:33, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Are you dumb or something. There is a complete press release about the merger and the reanming of the company. And there even interview of company's vice chairman with Bloomberg with it is clearly mentioned it is JioStar now, do check that out. And here is link to the press release on the official new website of JioStar: https://www.jiostar.com/pdf/14112024-JV.pdf

Check or gathered some information before you do anything stupid or claim false allegations. AngadSingh2004 (talk) 03:41, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The word is "dumb," not "dum" so I will pose the same question to you. Stop your disruption with these pages. --CNMall41 (talk) 04:03, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@AngadSingh2004 stop the personal attacks and calmly discuss this with actual reliable, secondary sources supporting this. That's ALL that's being asked here and you're insulting people, forcing your way and basically trying to bully other editors. That doesn't work well. Do what's been asked of you here. This feels like something that you should be able to produce a good news source. Ravensfire (talk) 04:11, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Follow the instructions at WP:RSPM and open a Requested Moves discussion. There have been too many page moves for it recently to be considered as uncontroversial action. – robertsky (talk) 02:52, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Disney Star → JioStar – Please place your rationale for the proposed move here. AngadSingh2004 (talk) 09:43, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@AngadSingh2004 looks like you forgot to include a rationale for why the page should be moved (arguments based on points found in WP:Article Titles policy) RachelTensions (talk) 10:09, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose move to JioStar, support move to Star India and support retaining current title. The company is named Star India Private Limited. "Star India" is a well-recognised and unambiguous name. The name "JioStar" has not yet been referenced officially so I don't think WP:NAMECHANGES applies. The only official use of the name is the website - jiostar.com. Even references by other sources are limited to mentioning the website. So the WP:COMMONNAME would then be either "Disney Star" or "Star India".

Not good sources to prove otherwise. We are the Great (talk) 14:36, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

For citing the rename, there are multiple (reliable) sources available, even though the youtube video could be considered one given it is published by Bloomberg, see WP:RSP#Bloomberg. ExclusiveEditor _{Notify Me!} 05:32, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose for now: Wait till the name comes into usage, and becomes the WP:COMMONNAME. Vestrian24Bio (TALK) 03:10, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

~~Support~~ Oppose for now (delay renaming for a two weeks at least): Disney star itself is not a common name within most people, most of whom just know the platforms owned by them. The community within which it could be a commonname would be the investors and related ones, in which there would be a rapid dissemination of the information of renaming, especially for those concerned, and then this article will lose its perceived credibility for being 'old', 'not updated' and factually erroneous.

ExclusiveEditor _{Notify Me!} 05:27, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose There's no reason to rush to change this, and no reason to believe the proposed name is the WP:COMMONNAME; not sure the official name has even been announced by the company yet. RachelTensions (talk) 11:28, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
