Comment This article could meet WP:BROADCAST. "Because of the public interest served, most television stations that produce original content should be presumed notable for Wikipedia purposes." Shanghai is certainly a major market. However the guideline begins: "Notability may be presumed for a radio and television broadcast station if it verifiably meets through reliable sources, one or more of a variety of factors..." There are no reliable sources on this article at present. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 20:07, 24 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment the article is about a channel from a TV station. The station itself is definitely notable. But the channel's notability is unclear. None of the reference in the Chinese wiki qualities as in-depth coverage, and I cannot find any independent reliable source that covers the channel in detail from Google.
