• Redirect to AXN (India) Obvious hoax is obvious; no Pakistan dropdown on network's schedule menu, along with the usual hoaxer attempts to convince us this network sees the light of day in Iran and Afghanistan, two countries that would easily take umbrage with this network's content. I don't doubt they take the Indian version though (though edited to meet PK's PEMRA content standards). Nate • (chatter) 21:18, 8 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Disagree - It's not obvious to those outside of Pakistan (IE me!) and at first glance (without clicking anything) the web results indicates it exists, That aside if this is indeed a hoax then there's no point redirecting ?..... –Davey2010^Talk 22:08, 8 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Generally all international networks use India as their hub for the subcontinental countries; this is no exception. Usually Pakistan's networks either originate from India or are limited to Pakistan proper and originate from Karachi per that country's regulators; I've had to keep hoaxers from turning many of these articles into messes like this. AXN India does mention the Pakistani feed, thus a delete-and-redirect would be appropriate. Nate • (chatter) 00:13, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Ah right thanks, Having come across this I believe locals are confusing this channel with AXN India which is what you were hinting at, In that case I have no issues with deleting and redirecting, Thanks, –Davey2010^Talk 00:27, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
