The result was redirect to ETV Network. Will lock. Swarm ♠ 06:09, 10 October 2015 (UTC)
Delete both Colors Kannada and Colors (TV channel) or possibly redirect each to ETV Network. The articles appear to address the much same topic, and do so without significant coverage. The coverage is either (1) internal from the channel itself or related parties or (2) slightly rehashed press releases (PRs), primarily cited from Biz Asia, itself a questionable source because of lack of fact checking. I did not find independent coverage (PRs not being independent). I did not find substantive coverage, except PRs. I did not find significant coverage. There are mere mentions aplenty because of programming notices, but no coverage of the organization/channel. It fails the general notability guideline, as well as WP:CORP. In particular see WP:CORPDEPTH and the policy at Self-published sources, note #9; see also the policy regarding questionable sources and the essay at Wikipedia:Third-party sources. Note 1: Colors Kannada and the "Colors" franchise are part of ETV Network which is a subsidiary of Viacom 18, a joint venture between Viacom and the Network 18. Note 2: I originally created the title "Colors Kannada" as a redirect in January 2011. -- Bejnar ( talk) 19:45, 2 October 2015 (UTC)
