The images of televisions

Dear authors of this template, thank you very much for this template! A suggestion for improvement: is the vintage style of the images of televisions in this template intentional? In my opinion, in the future, images of current TVs should be used instead. Best regards, – Gebu (talk) 21:42, 16 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I actually like the vintage TV sets (and VCRs, etc.!) --Funandtrvl (talk) 04:55, 29 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The banner meta template doesn't work like that. I believe the correct thing to add would be

 |tf 2                  = {{{Welsh-television|}}}
  |TF_2_LINK            = Wikipedia:WikiProject Television/Welsh television task force
  |TF_2_NAME            = the Welsh television task force
  |TF_2_IMAGE           = Flag of Wales.svg
  |TF_2_SIZE            = x20px
  |TF_2_QUALITY         = yes
  |tf 2 importance      = {{{Welsh-television-importance|}}}
  |TF_2_ASSESSMENT_CAT  = Welsh television articles
  |TF_2_MAIN_CAT        = Welsh television task force articles
...
 |tf 2                  = {{{Welsh-television|}}}
  |TF_2_LINK            = Wikipedia:WikiProject Television/Welsh television task force
  |TF_2_NESTED          = Television game shows

The thing to do (see WP:TESTCASES) is make the desired changes at Template:WikiProject Television/sandbox, test them at Template:WikiProject Television/testcases, obtain consensus at WT:WikiProject Television and only then should you make the edit request here. If actioned (and only if), the template documentation can be updated accordingly. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 23:30, 23 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
