Nick Jr India → Nick Jr. (India) – All the other regional Nick Jr. channels have their article names as "Nick Jr. (country)" so requesting move to maintain consistency. User 261115 (talk) 12:42, 10 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This is a contested technical request (permalink). TonyBallioni (talk) 19:57, 10 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Should be discussed. This may raise a MOS:ENGVAR matter (but might not, if the branding is consistently with the ., despite the tendency of Commonwealth, including Indian, English to drop it). The usual abbreviation of "Junior" in Commonwealth English is Jnr, so Jr[.] is an Americanism anyway, so this might be an okay move idea. Basically, this will need some research. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ >^ʌⱷ҅_ᴥⱷ^ʌ< 18:35, 10 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Merger proposal

I suggest incorporation of Nick Jr. (Indian TV channel) into Nickelodeon (Indian TV channel). The Nick Jr. article today is based upon one source ([1]) and, based on my own opinion, is not worthy in itself of inclusion as a stand-alone article per Wikipedia's guideline on notability WP:GNG, WP:NTV. I have searched for other sources which may offer useful coverage but am not finding anything which gives adequate, independent, meaningful coverage to the channel.

It does seem to be extensive overlap of content between the two articles, specifically with regard to target audience and overall Viacom18 brand. Details pertaining to Nick Jr. would better be placed within the context of the main article for Nickelodeon (Indian TV channel). My recommendation would be to insert any applicable, sourced content from the Nick Jr. article within the "Sister channels" section of the Nickelodeon (Indian TV channel) article. I invite comments from other editors on this proposal. Let me know your comments and any other sources you know of. UNITED BLASTERS (talk) 06:57, 22 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I respectfully disagree because these are separate channels, aimed at separate audiences and with separate programming. Since no one has chimed in during the last year, i'm going to go ahead and remove the merge tag on both pages in order to clear them out of the backlog.

@Oona Wikiwalker: This was posted two days ago, so I'm undoing your removal of the merge tags. Sammi Brie (she/her · t · c) 03:17, 24 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Because the person who originally added the tag mistyped the year, it was in the wrong category in the backlog. Reverting my edit was fine, but if you saw the error, why didn't you fix it so the next person wouldn't repeat it? Oona Wikiwalker (talk) 09:04, 25 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
