GWN used to own three radio stations (6TZ Bunbury, 6CI Collie and 6NA Narrogin). From what I can tell they were sold off separately when Northern Star purchased BDC in 1987. Does anyone have any more information? i.e. when they were acquired? -- Tntnnbltn 03:59, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
The network is called 'Golden West Network', therefore I have reverted your article move. Even the official website says 'Golden West Network' (see [1]). As well as this there are numerous other resources, such as from the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (see [2]), that clearly state the name 'Golden West Network'. Please in future discuss, then move. Stickeylabel 13:24, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
I encourage all discussion, however no original research belongs on Wikipedia. The verifiability policy demands that information and notable views presented in articles be drawn from appropriate, reliable sources, that can be referenced according to WP:Cite. It does not matter what a GWN employee states, it has no encyclopedic factuality, and someones official form of employment does not alter their status on Wikipedia. And in response to your most recent comment, concensus must be gained for all decisions, and the current concensus is that the article should not be renamed.

Hi all, I just received a call from Auroranorth and I must say the general public do know us better as GWN, probably due to our logo and progam promos however our company name is The Golden West Network. For the purposes of a search tool in Wikipedia it would be great to be listed under both names. If anyone knows how to do this that would be fantastic. We are listed in the white pages under GWN which says: see Golden West Network. Thanks again for your call Auroranorth and thanks to everyone for contributing to the discussion.

Regarding Smacca's question about whether the old callsigns are still used, only WAW is currently used. All the others were acquired by GWN or merged into one larger channel and then acquired by GWN before the Prime Television Limited acquisition. [12] Auroranorth 11:06, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
I don't think discussion is neccessary for a logo size change. The current poor representation of the GWN logo looks horrid at that size, it always has. -- Smacca 12:29, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
...and Smacca, just out of interest, why does it need to be in line with Prime? I can see what you're getting at, though.
(P.S. Remember to sign your comments!)

Noel's been gone for a while. Any objections in myself updating this to include Shauna Willis, AuroraNorth? -- Smacca 15:07, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
Most of know that WIN had Ten News at 5.00pm prior to August 2006, which in turn meant GWN News competed with them at 5.30pm. How can we prove this? —Preceding unsigned comment added by SmaccaWA ( talk • contribs) 14:49, 22 September 2007 (UTC)

Image:GWNNews.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

GWN7 (and for that matter its eastern states counterpart Prime7) never closed, it just had a name change. Surely a better route would have been renaming the article to Seven (Regional WA), getting rid of the paste tense, and refer to GWN7 as a former name of the station? 101.118.204.94 ( talk) 11:39, 19 October 2022 (UTC)
