' COMMENT' these are all bad choices. "(countryname)" does not distinguish between these TV channels and the various National Geographic magazines that also conform to these titles. Instead it should add "TV channel" to the disambiguator, so you get National Geograpic (Portugal TV channel) / National Geographic (France TV channel) / etc -- 65.94.169.56 (talk) 03:55, 26 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

(Note: I have left messages in those two 's user talk pages.) Anthony Appleyard (talk) 04:54, 26 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose all these should instead be called National Geographic (countryname TV channel) instead as there are mangazines in these countries that can also be so referred to as. -- 65.94.169.56 (talk) 04:59, 26 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Comment – I could accept the previous comment, but the word "Channel" needs to be dropped regardless. That's mostly what I care about. 2601:8C:4001:DCB9:4C67:276E:19E3:C6D2 (talk) 01:38, 27 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
