Should we create a separate article just for former programming and have just a short paragraph on this page that mentions the key elements and shows? It would help to clean up the article while keeping current/future/developmental programming on this article. ??Preceding unsigned comment added by Encmetalhead ( talk ? contribs ) 14:24, 18 March 2014 (UTC) [ reply ]
