ABC News (United States)ABC News

– Australia's ABC News is its national broadcaster and is its most widely watched newscast. The Australian broadcaster reaches 8 digit levels of people on a weekly basis, while the U.S. company averages around 7 million on nightly newscasts. And, in absolute terms, Australia's ABC is quite a major news organization. I don't think the U.S. subsidiary of Disney is more of a WP:PTOPIC here, so I propose moving this to the proposed target and moving ABC News (disambiguation) to take over this page's title. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 20:57, 18 June 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. JuniperChill (talk) 20:32, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

How has this been decided??

[edit]

This page got many requested moves in its early history, and they all got the consensus to keep the article at ABC News. But now it got one that allowed it to be moved. How did it change?? Does it have anything to do with the popularity of Australian Wikipedians?? (For anyone who answers this question please study this talk page's whole history.)

There actually seems to be opposition post-move over the consensus. See User talk:BilledMammal#ABC News move. A move review has also been started at Wikipedia:Move review/Log/2024 July#ABC_News_(United_States). Limmidy (talk) 00:57, 4 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Just found this via @BilledMammal doing mass edits all over wikipedia re-pointing links. I added my comment to the move review. Truly a wild change without much consensus. Ergzay (talk) 06:27, 4 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
For those wondering, here's the last several moves over several years with almost universal opposition for the moves. Talk:ABC News (United States)/Archive 2 Ergzay (talk) 06:33, 4 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
