Cleanup The last AfD for this article had a consensus of Speedy Delete due to it being a hoax. However, according to this Huffington Post article it is no longer a hoax. It is indeed an upcoming program, however, there could be some information that has not been properly sourced, or is a rumor, etc., and should be removed immediately. ---Michaelzeng7 (talk - contribs) 21:33, 3 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete and Redirect to Teletoon for the time being with a section eventually expanded to a full article. At this stage, the only thing said about the network is it will exist in the near future, nothing about a schedule or acquired shows. It's best to be cautious with this article so the usual gang of hoaxers aren't putting up false 'sources' (i.e. fan boards and inane-minutia fansites) to back up upcoming programming. Also, has to actually be run somewhere and have CRTC approval, which reading this it does not have at this point in time (without CRTC approval, it won't ever air).

Keep If we're being hoaxed, so is everyone (Google news link). There are multiple RS which are covering this announcement as reality, so I see no reason why past AfD consensus has anything to do with this apparently plausible new network. Jclemens (talk) 02:50, 4 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Significant coverage in reliable sources. 140.247.141.165 (talk) 02:35, 6 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: First, this is not a hoax. There is even a press release posted on Teletoon's corporate media website outlining the matter. Second, there is a decent amount of coverage of this in the media which would make it noteworthy enough to warrant an article.musimax. (talk) 21:48, 7 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
