The result was redirect to Beşiktaş J.K.. Will leave the history in place and have no objection to recreation if more significant, non-trivial, coverage is found. J04n(talk page) 00:15, 5 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Beşiktaş TV

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Unreferenced and the "official" TV website is a blog, which is not a RS. Fails WP:GNG.. does not have significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the topic. JMHamo (talk) 18:00, 26 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - no evidence of notability. Giant Snowman 19:08, 26 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment It is a turkish national television avalaible in many countries and in many satellite network services→[1]←

Now i'm improving the page and see:

http://www.derszamani.net/bjk-tv-frekans.html

The channel is a national turkish television available also on satellite and over the world with the streaming service→http://www.hdtvizle.com/40-besiktas-tv-hd-canli-izle.html And last the page passes WP:BCAST. --Lglukgl (talk) 19:29, 26 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

WP:BCAST says "Notability may be presumed for a radio and television broadcast station if it verifiably meets through reliable sources", which this article does not meet. JMHamo (talk) 19:33, 27 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per the above - No evidence of notability –Davey2010 • (talk) 00:54, 27 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Merge Given that TV stations are generally notable, and the team is very notable, then I think we simply merge to Beşiktaş J.K.. Nfitz (talk) 23:43, 28 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately this station has no independent Reliable Sources, so merging would not be an option in my opinion. JMHamo (talk) 23:47, 28 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

A quick Google search suggests otherwise. I can even live stream it in a few clicks. The references in the article seems good. Some other examples are [2] [3] [4]. Nfitz (talk) 13:26, 29 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

They are all WP:ROUTINE... JMHamo (talk) 13:29, 29 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Which is fine to simply mention the channel exists on the Beşiktaş J.K. page. Maybe redirect would be a better vote ... as there's very little to merge beyond a couple of sentances at the beginning. Nfitz (talk) 16:08, 29 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Seems to reach about 2-3 million people so I say it passes WP:BCAST, It needs better references but it is not easy to find source in english language. This television is similar to Fenerbahçe TV and Galatasaray TV (which are considered notable) and is a national and international turkish television which can be see in all Turkey and it broadcast on Digiturk and turksat platform (see references in the page) so it is notable. now i'm adding new references in the page so the page can be better --Lglukgl (talk) 15:37, 29 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
