Even though TBS and WPCH-TV no longer simulcast each other, WPCH-TV still appears to be uplinked to national satellite. So technically, it's still a superstation. TBS is not. -- Tv's emory 07:41, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
I just removed the flags, the colors, and the unnecessary sections from this template. I've only commented out what I removed so they can be easily restored, but that should ONLY be done after some discussion on this template.
I only noticed this template because I was going to edit the KTLA article. Yes, this template looks nice in isolation, but it is a HUGE, glaring monstrosity when added to an existing article.
The flags are unnecessary and just make the template much larger. They also make the template (and thus the article) load slower.
The template certainly didn't need an extra row for superstations that haven't been added to the template yet. The two notes for Canadian and Mexican superstation are unnecessary in the template IMHO, but are information that should be added to the superstation article.
I also removed the note at the bottom of the template about seeing local markets, because there was no indication why they were included, and nothing in the superstation article gave me a clue either.
As for the colors: I'd settle for restoring a light blue band for the title row, which is a moderately common feature for navigation boxes, but the template didn't need both blue and yellow rows. My personal opinion is that the current version with no color at all is much cleaner and clearer. Blank Verse 09:27, 29 November 2005 (UTC)
Are all those Canadian stations that Raccoon Fox added superstations? Kimmykun 09:08, 28 February 2006 (UTC)
Are stations with "National Carriage" equal to Superstations? If they are, then i'd suspect that CFPL-TV, CFTM-TV, CITV-TV, CHCH-TV, CFTO-TV, CFMT-TV/CJMT-TV and CBMT-TV/CBUT-TV would qualify. Raccoon Fox 20:38, 20 April 2006
Could someone add the NavHide feature to this template? (My knowlege of HTML is pretty bad.) Thanks. — Whomp [ T] [ C 23:27, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
The following Mexican stations are not superstations they're flagships for networks that have affiliates / repeaters across Mexico.
Flagship | Network |
XEW | Canal de las Estrellas |
XHTV | FOROtv |
XHGC | Canal 5 |
XEQ | Galavisión |
XHDF | Azteca 7 |
XHIMT | Azteca 13 |
XHAW | Multimedios Television |
As for the American stations KTLA, KWGN, WGN, and WPIX are all affiliates of The CW. WGN America and TBS are pay television only networks. WPCH is an independent local station in Atlanta, which is not available nationwide. WSBK and WWOR are MyNetworkTV syndicate flagships.
That just leaves us with XHCNL-TV which is a Televisa Regional station that broadcasts programming from Canal de las Estrellas, Canal 5, and Galavision Mexico and is only available through SKY Mexico which is 58.7% owned by Televisa.

I know that PBS has some Public Broadcasting Superstations like WNET New York, WGBH Boston, WETA Washington DC, KQED San Francisco, KCET Los Angeles and WTVS Detroit.
But, I believe there must be MORE PBS Superstations that just WNET, WETA, WGBH, WTVS, KQED, KCTS and KCET.
Can you tell me about more PBS Superstations that you Know about, PLEASE?
Thank you, I appreciate it.
