Inclusion of sport
@Robsinden: As I stated in my revert of your previous edit, the template is about programming on the Seven Network, which includes local sports broadcasts. Coverage of sports are local programming, and it is irrelevant that not all sports have their own articles specifically for coverage of them. Articles solely dedicated to each sport in most cases would be candidates to be merged. Inclusion of the sport in the template seems entirely appropriate to me -- Whats new?(talk) 09:10, 23 February 2017 (UTC)]
- It clearly isn't appropriate to link sporting events or football leagues in a navbox dedicated to television programmes. If there is an article to this network's coverage (like the Olympics), then that would be appropriate, but not the sporting events themselves. Inclusion of the event fails the core points of talk) 09:16, 23 February 2017 (UTC)]
- @Robsinden:I disagree. The articles on the sporting leagues contain information about broadcast details within them, in lieu of having stub articles about their broadcast. -- Whats new?(talk) 09:24, 23 February 2017 (UTC)]
- They might have a sentence or two, but it's not a programming article. If the coverage was notable in itself, there should be an article on the coverage. If there isn't an article, then linking from a TV network navbox isn't appropriate. Also, it isn't appropriate to place this navbox on the articles for the sporting events/leagues, so it would fail the spirit of talk) 09:35, 23 February 2017 (UTC)]
- @Robsinden: There are plenty of resources to establish notability of sporting broadcasts, which is why they are covered within the sports articles themselves. You're suggesting excluding the listing of sports coverage on an ad-hoc basis because there isn't a separate article dedicated solely to the broadcast. They are still programs broadcast by the network and should be linked here. I don't see how it fails BIDIRECTIONAL either, as there is no requirement to include navboxes on each topic -- Whats new?(talk) 09:45, 23 February 2017 (UTC)]
- Yes, only list sports coverage that has a dedicated article. Take the talk) 09:59, 23 February 2017 (UTC)]
- @Robsinden: And again, I'm disagreeing. Broadcasts of sporting events is local programming produced and broadcast by and for the network. In leiu of its own article, broadcast details are covered within the sporting article. I'm not talking about sports related programming such as talk shows, I'm talking about coverage of games. The navbox is for programming, and sports events are programming covered by this network with the details within sporting articles rather than their own stub sized article -- Whats new?(talk) 10:21, 23 February 2017 (UTC)]
