Wikipedia:WikiProject Television/The Twilight Zone task force

To create a consistent and detailed look for each episode page.

Current tasks:

• Gain consensus on the style guide, which will allow us to begin standardizing the episode pages.

Completed tasks:

• Placed {{WikiProject Television|the-twilight-zone=y}} on each episode's discussion page (including non-existent articles)

Future work:

• Standardize existing articles.
• Create articles for episodes with no article.
• Improve the content of the episode articles.
• Improve the content of the non-episode articles.

The following articles have received Featured Article status.

The following articles have received Good Article status.

• Time Enough at Last
• Twilight Zone: 19 Original Stories on the 50th Anniversary

All 156 episodes need to be updated to conform to the style guide.

Two articles need to be created for the two stories: Where the Dead Are and The Theater

Of the 110 episodes, 52 articles need to be updated to conform to the style guide. The remaining 58 need to have articles created.

Of the 44 episodes, only one article exists (It's Still a Good Life), which need to be updated to conform to the style guide. The remaining 42 need to have articles created (see List of The Twilight Zone episodes#Second revival).

This is only a draft and should not be considered policy.

The Twilight Zone is an American show and therefore all the pages related to the show should use American spelling.

Italicize when referring to TV shows such as The Twilight Zone and use quotes when referring to a single episode. For example, "The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street" is the an episode of The Twilight Zone.

Using the template Template:Infobox television episode creates this infobox:

After creating the box, the following parameters (or information) may be inserted into the infobox so that it will appear during editing as:

{{Infobox television episode| title          = | series         = [[The Twilight Zone]]<!-- without italics or formatting. Wikilinking optional. -->| image          = <!-- bare filename only.

Each page should contain the following sections:

It should be noted that a collection of quotes doesn't belong to Wikipedia (see Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not), but instead belongs to Wikiquote. Therefore a link should be provided to the relevant section on Wikiquote.

Trivia sections should be eliminated and their relevant contents rolled into the article.

Also do not provide any other air dates than the original US run. Wikipedia is not a TV guide.

Please feel free to add yourself here to the bottom, and to indicate any areas of particular interest.
