Greek radio and television stations

New User:Trapezanidis 1453 has been creating a number of these, probably translating from Greek Wikipedia. It might be useful for someone from this project to assist him with infoboxes, cats, notability for broadcasters and English. I have left a note on his talk page suggesting the same.

Hellas name

We should use the Hellas name for Wikipedia articles about our beloved country. The name Greece is not acceptable as it was used by conquerors and is not the name we the glorious Hellenes use. Please help to raise awareness about our preference to use the Hellas name internationally for our country and make Wikipedia use it. Sofia Koutsouveli (talk) 21:25, 10 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Sofia Koutsouveli: Please stop this campaign. Wikipedia is an encyclopædia, not a place to glorify one's country. Thanks. Dr. K. 21:33, 10 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Sofia Koutsouveli: Not to mention that "Greece" is derived from the ancient word "Γραίκος". It is not offensive in any way.

Atana, a.k.a. (Athena) move request

I'm requesting Atana be moved to Atana (raga) because it's currently an article on music of India, when Atana as known in the West is an alternate spelling of Athena, or a ‘proto-Athena,’ and there are also two or more other languages with the word having different meanings. The main page should be a disambiguation. If any page had the main article, I'd have preferred it be Athena. I've opened a move request discussion you can join.--dchmelik (t|c) 05:31, 21 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Costamare

The world headquarters of Costamare has recently moved to Monaco. Please change this in the Wikipedia article on Costamare. The majority of stock ownership is still in Greece but not the world headquarters anymore so please change this. Please read their most recent annual report they submitted to the EDGAR website of the Security and Exchange Commission of the United States to verify this assertion.
