Specify RTS Sénégal and the numbered television service. Its official pages distinguish RTS1 from RTS2, whose description emphasises entertainment and sport. These identities should not be confused with Serbia’s RTS or used as proof of every future sporting event’s rights.
RTS Sénégal and numbered service
For a Senegalese bulletin, cultural programme or interview, retain the title and original date. A current report can share the topic of a full programme while omitting the discussion or performance. RTS1’s page points to live and saved-viewing routes; their existence is not a test of another distributor’s full archive.
Language and full programme
State French, Wolof, Pulaar or another required speech for that programme. A national broadcaster’s menu language does not settle an episode’s soundtrack, and a translated news article is a different format from translated television audio. For RTS2 sport, include the actual fixture and desired commentary.
Keep Dakar date
Use Africa/Dakar and the local programme date. If an entry says only RTS, retain the domain, country and on-screen service name before changing favourites. That resolves the international acronym ambiguity. Compare the intended programme on the actual platform, with live, complete replay or highlights stated explicitly.
Time-zone reference locations
Africa/Dakar
Use the location relevant to the viewer and the event date. IANA reference locations are not a count of distinct current offsets; do not apply one fixed offset to the whole country.
