Update Fox Sports regional edition like Fox Sports West is currently being discussed to go to Disney as a result of the Fox Disney deal in 2017. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.169.130.165 ( talk) 01:09, 21 December 2017 (UTC)
I have added tags to suggest that Capital Cities/ABC Inc. is merged into Disney-ABC Television Group since they are now the same company. Merging these two pages would make it easier to find information about the pre- and post-Disney companies. LeahG22 ( talk) 00:51, 25 April 2018 (UTC)
The result of the move request was: moved
Disney–ABC Television Group →
Walt Disney Television – Disney-ABC Television Group was renamed to "Walt Disney Television" following 21st Century acquisition. Walt Disney Television had been set to temporarily redirect here while the deal was pending. But it should now be the official page.

Walt Disney Television is a division - not a subsidiary. All the cited articles as well as [ official website] describe Walt Disney Television and Disney Television Studios as divisions - not subsidiaries. There is no reliable source that describes them as subsidiaries. The current cited source for making it subsidiary (the California database) doesn't distinguish between subsidiaries and divisions. It describes them the same way. It describes them similar to non-disputable division like Disney Parks, Walt Disney Studios and Disney Direct to Consumer and International divisions. So, using it to call one subsidiary or division is misleading and incorrect. Pinging @ Spshu: - please provide a better source for calling it a subsidiary. And if you're going to cite that database, please explain why they're to be treated differently from the other division entries - DISNEY CONSUMER PRODUCTS AND INTERACTIVE MEDIA, INC., DISNEY GLOBAL PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT AND CREATIVE, INC. and WALT DISNEY DIRECT-TO-CONSUMER & INTERNATIONAL.
Also, please understand the distinctions between subsidiaries and divisions. Subsidiaries are usually independent companies, run separately while divisions are business units based on the type of work performed / business run. A company like Lucasfilm can be removed or added to Disney without changing what Disney does... but removing Walt Disney Studios division would completely change what Disney does. Similarly, removing ABC Studios doesn't have impact on changing what Disney's businesses; but removing Walt Disney Television would change Disney's business from TV.

←When division are registered as corporation then they are no longer divisions, becoming a subsidiary. Subsidiary are not necessarily independently run companies. A IT/tech website (techtarget.com) is NOT a good site for looking for business definitions. Formal SEC filings do not list all their subsidiaries. Huston Chronicles: "A wholly owned subsidiary, on the other hand, is a completely separate entity from the main business." "Because a division is an internal segment of a company, not an entirely separate entity, business owners create and end divisions at their whim." Spshu ( talk) 22:18, 26 March 2019 (UTC)

Walt Disney Television → Disney General Entertainment Content – Judging from the recent reorganization, it seems that this is the new name for most of Disney's broadcast/cable assets (excluding ESPN), with Walt Disney Television now consisting solely of Disney TV Studios and ABC Entertainment. Also placing this here as there was previous debate last year. – Piranha 249 22:11, 19 November 2020 (UTC)
Relating back to my attempt to move this page to Disney General Entertainment Content, someone has removed the redirect and began developing a page. I'm watching this closely, but right now the only thing there is current units. What do we do in this situation? – Piranha249 (Discuss with me) 17:17, 12 February 2021 (UTC)
The result of the move request was: moved. per discussion consensus and COMMONNAME. ( closed by non-admin page mover) — Shibbolethink ( ♔ ♕) 00:12, 17 October 2022 (UTC)
Walt Disney Television → Disney General Entertainment Content – The section above makes absolute sense. Sure, sources may conflict on this though, but the "Walt Disney Television" of 2020 is now "Disney General Entertainment Content"! Any doubts?! Visit their official website at https://wdtvpress.com for proof!! This has been going on for 18 months now. Intrisit ( talk) 09:38, 4 October 2022 (UTC)
@ Piranha249 and Starforce13:, fellow WP ones, it's about time this title got invoked and updated to where we want it to be. A lot of people both in the U.S. and internationally are currently misled by this title when in fact their official website is currently a redirect. I invite you to invoke other Wikipedians to have these updates reflected here. This wiki looks too outdated for my liking. Wikipedia strives for updates, but who will provide them?!?? Intrisit ( talk) 09:38, 4 October 2022 (UTC)
Starforce13, Piranha249, Asukite, Rotideypoc41352 & Shibbolethink: Since the move is completed, I've begun an action to directly direct every wikilink of "Walt Disney Television" across this encyclopaedia to this page which will last until the welcoming of the new year. I'm asking for your opinions on what shall be done about the original production company with that same title which was moved because of disambiguation issues and pageview popularity between 2019 and 2021 whether or not it should be moved back to where it used to be prior to May 2019.

Just a general comment, but the sources need to match whatever title is selected, and whatever current title being used by Disney should probably be the title unless the scope of the article is being altered in some fashion. The lead should also be adjusted to reflect any title change. Best. 4meter4 ( talk) 21:24, 29 April 2023 (UTC)
