MFE ≠ Mediaset (Italia S.p.A.)[edit]

Before we get into an edit war, let's settle this. Feel free to correct me, but I believe MFE was 'launched' by renaming the Dutch paper company Mediaset N.V., and the subsidiary in charge of Italian domestic business was subsequently renamed from Mediaset S.p.A. to Mediaset Italia S.p.A.. Also, MFE exists as a holding company of international businesses, while Mediaset (Italia S.p.A.), under MFE, oversees Canale 5, Rete 4, Italia 1 and others. So I think this article and the Mediaset article should remain separate. JSH-alive/^{talk/cont/mail} 04:09, 23 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps we can split Mediaset#History (which should be focused more on its activities within Italy) and move some portions into this article, but I still oppose the full merger of the articles.

Anyway, here's how I think this article's History section should be structured:

History

Background [Basically everything pre-November 2021 MFE announcement.]
{{Main|Mediaset#History}}
- Beginnings in Italy
- Early international expansion [Tele 5 in Germany, La cinq in France, and Telecinco in Spain.]
- Acquisition of ProSiebenSat.1 Media
As MFE (November 2021-present)

@Telco4: The discussion isn't over yet. You may have successfully brought in an outline, but that does not justify your disruptive behaviour basically copying what some IP users did.

I noticed that, at Wikidata, you transferred lots of interwiki articles about "Mediaset" from Q368151 (the one about Mediaset or Mediaset Italia S.p.A.) to Q3777384 (the one about MFE). Since most of them focus on its activities in Italy, you should have placed {{Split}} (or the likes of that) on those articles instead, effectively requesting a creation of a separate article about MFE across the editions of Wikipedia.

And, MFE indicates that it owns 100% of "Mediaset" right in the front page of its website. This implies that, no matter how MFE's 'Italian domestic business subsidiary' is legally named, it will be referred to as "Mediaset" at the common level. So, rather than making the article about 'MFE's Italian subsidiary' (titled Mediaset Italia (company) as of this writing) a bare-boned stubby one, why don't you leave the rich details about Italy-specific activities over there?

The complete discussion is here, please look at it.--Telco4 (talk) 17:28, 4 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Now that "Telco4" (allegedly the 'LTA Vodafone vandal') was globally blocked, guess I'll handle the articles (with the recent legal name change of Mediaset Italia S.p.A. into the new Mediaset S.p.A. recognised). But I need some assistance from those who have edited the articles MFE - MediaForEurope and Mediaset at the Italian Wikipedia in recent times.

Support While I see some mostly finance-related news agencies use "MFE-MediaForEurope", most regular news agencies appear to be using "MediaForEurope" as the company's name. See for example: [1], [2], and [3]. :3 F4U (they /it) 21:34, 10 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
