It's a redistribution company whose only news coverage is in press releases or lists of sporting events. Dubbin^{u | t | c} 10:02, 11 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect and Merge to BeIN Sports per WP:COMMONOUTCOMES with television over-the-top content/TV Everywhere services. Nate • (chatter) 13:46, 11 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Good suggestion, I'd support that. Dubbin^{u | t | c} 14:16, 11 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

BeIN CONNECT is not the same as BeIN Sports. Exactly as Sky Go is not the same as Sky Sports or ESPN3 is not the same as ESPN. I don't agree with merge proposition User talk:Fsalati —Preceding undated comment added 12:30, 16 May 2016 (UTC):[reply]

Sky Sports and ESPN are fundamentally more notable than BeIN so their subsidiaries merit separate articles. Merging as proposed doesn't imply the subsidiary is the same, merely that it is a subsidiary. If its section grows sufficiently in size with good content, it can be turned into a dedicated page at any time in the future. Dubbin^{u | t | c} 13:58, 16 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect as not currently independently notable or any signs of it. SwisterTwister talk 23:07, 18 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
