Created as WikiProject Television Stations in 2004 and changed to a task force of WP:TV in 2020, this project aims to create well-sourced, comprehensive, high-quality information on broadcast and pay linear television services. Where most WP:TV task forces deal with content—television series and episodes—TVS deals with content delivery, the broadcasting industry, and how people consume television content (though not streaming services).

Tasks

• Assess articles: As of February 2021, 70 percent of content pages in the project (excluding lists, categories, etc.) were not assessed for importance and 57 percent were not assessed for quality.
• Add the project tagging template to talk pages: {{WikiProject Television|television-stations=yes}}
• Fill remaining gaps in Class A and low-power station articles: Wikipedia:WikiProject Television/Television stations task force/Missing.
• Improve articles by adding a relevant infobox if necessary, updating out-of-date pages and improving sourcing.
• Keep lists up-to-date.
