An unsourced compendium of US news programs named "Channel 4" at one point or another. Not titled as a list, but that's what it basically is. Seems to fail WP:NOTDIR and WP:INDISCRIMINATE. AleatoryPonderings (talk) 00:10, 22 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. If this is an actual topic as opposed to original research that television stations that broadcast on Channel 4 often call their newscasts "Channel 4 News" and share certain other similarities, then it needs to be sourced to prove that. This article has zero sources. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 00:46, 22 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom. Unlike more famous "Channel 4 News" programs elsewhere...in the US it's just a generic title used by some stations on channel 4. No need for this at all. Raymie (t • c) 00:51, 22 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete appears to be original research at best. power~enwiki (π, ν) 23:40, 22 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Title is a very generic news org name. Nate • (chatter) 00:48, 23 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. There's a hint in this article that NBC somehow lined up its affiliates on Channel 4 across the country, then helped to standardize their local news branding. That would be meaningful and encyclopedic. Unfortunately this page pretty much disproves that theory. --Lockley (talk) 06:36, 25 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
