Top Ten Most watched programmes

Under viewership I have added the top ten most watched programmes on BBC3 from the figures available from the BARB (back to 2005) in order to match up with similar tables in the ITV2 and E4 articles.--Hammard (talk) 21:33, 28 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I dunno if this helps but I read on a poster there that some program for BBC Three is being made at MetroCentre (shopping centre). Can someone clarify the name? I was more focused on getting to HMV and getting a free Large Popcorn (O2 Priority moments offer) stores than memorizing the name of a series being made there. MIVP - (Can I Help? ◕‿◕) (Maybe a bit of tea for thought?) 22:16, 12 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

According to BARB, Family Guy and American Dad are the top two programmes. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.123.96.0 (talk) 20:24, 5 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Cyberbot II has detected links on BBC Three which have been added to the blacklist, either globally or locally. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed or are highly inappropriate for Wikipedia. The addition will be logged at one of these locations: local or global If you believe the specific link should be exempt from the blacklist, you may request that it is white-listed. Alternatively, you may request that the link is removed from or altered on the blacklist locally or globally. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. Please do not remove the tag until the issue is resolved. You may set the invisible parameter to "true" whilst requests to white-list are being processed. Should you require any help with this process, please ask at the help desk.

Logo dispute

From what I can tell, the logo was unveiled before the channel moved online ([1]). EvergreenFir (talk) Please {{re}} 20:11, 5 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I don't mind what logo goes here, but I like the idea of this article having the 2008-2016 logo, since it was the channel's longest serving logo for around 8 years. -- AxG /  10 years of editing 23:44, 5 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Merge?

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section. A summary of the conclusions reached follows.
No consensus to merge + point of confusion (the "online" disambiguation) clarified and renamed X201 (talk) 07:19, 29 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I see no need for BBC Three (online) to be separate from BBC Three, especially with the upcoming linear re-launch of the channel. BBC Three (online) looks like a dreadful and unneccessary article - more than half the content is about the BBC proposal, the linear closure/online launch and the statistics of viewers since the linear closure, rather than actually about the BBC Three online channel and its content. Not to mention it is severely outdated. Probably one of the worst pages on wiki I've come across. No need for it to exist, it should merge to BBC Three. --Jf81 (talk) 15:25, 2 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

BBC Three was a separate service. The point of the separate articles is that BBC Three has had three different phases to it's life that do not easily mesh together in the same article. - X201 (talk) 15:05, 2 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Someone replacing the BBC Three (former channel) logo with this:

instead this:

I know that due to corporate rebrand of the BBC, the new BBC Three logo was unveiled at BBC One block, where many assuming that the logo will be used once BBC Three returns to TV in 2022. Should English Wikipedia replacing that logo with the new ones? Because i found that in Wikipedia in other languages, despite it was a former channel, a new logo for BBC Three was attached instead of old and so indistinguishable than online service and maybe future channel. 36.77.94.37 (talk) 05:09, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

We currently have two BBC Three articles covering distinct phases in the channel's history. Phase 1, (this article) as a broadcast channel from 2003 - 2016 and phase 2 as an online content brand (2016 - 2022). It would be wrong to add the new logo to this article, because it has historic content that ends in 2016 and has no connection to the new logo. The same goes for the period as a content brand article (2016 - 2022) That is not connected to the BBC Three that we'll see in 2022.
We are talking about very distinct phases in the channel's history (three specific forks in Wiki terminology), there needs to be a BBC Three 2022 article, because shoehorning new BBC Three information into either of the others is the wrong course of action. - X201 (talk) 07:53, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Article Title?

This is not a formal proposal just yet. I'm gathering opinions and ideas so that we can get the BBC Three articles in a position that keeps the historic and future incarnations of it in a coherent order.

Seeing as this article covers a period that ends in 2016 and that the streaming article covers the 2016 - 2022 period and also that the 2022 version of BBC Three looks like a given. I think renaming this article and the streaming article would bring a lot of clarity to things. I'm thinking along the following lines:

  • Rename BBC Three (this article) to BBC Three (2003 - 2016)
  • Rename BBC Three (streaming service) to BBC Three (2016 - 2022)
  • Make a new BBC Three to either cover the 2022 incarnation or as a disambiguation page.

All of the above is to bring clarity to the individual and distinct phases of the channel. Any opinions or alternative ideas? - X201 (talk) 10:59, 5 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
