Article alerts
This is a notice to let you know about Article alerts, a fully-automated subscription-based news delivery system designed to notify WikiProjects and Taskforces when articles are entering Articles for deletion, Requests for comment, Peer review and other workflows (full list). The reports are updated on a daily basis, and provide brief summaries of what happened, with relevant links to discussion or results when possible. A certain degree of customization is available; WikiProjects and Taskforces can choose which workflows to include, have individual reports generated for each workflow, have deletion discussion transcluded on the reports, and so on. An example of a customized report can be found here.

If you are already subscribed to Article Alerts, it is now easier to report bugs and request new features. We are also in the process of implementing a "news system", which would let projects know about ongoing discussions on a wikipedia-wide level, and other things of interest. The developers also note that some subscribing WikiProjects and Taskforces use the  parameter, but forget to give a link to their alert page. Your alert page should be located at "Wikipedia:PROJECT-OR-TASKFORCE-HOMEPAGE/Article alerts". Questions and feedback should be left at Wikipedia talk:Article alerts.

Color Table design (urgent help required)
For editors in the group, we need help to complete the change of color template design in all articles so that it will reflect the way it currently presented in the post-ABC era (season 16 and later). Up until now, most editors had done most of the maintenance work but up until the pre-live show stage on August (for season 4), and no work has done yet up until now. If you are seeing this, please help do your best to make it consistent and help with the updates of the color schemes. This goes the same for the other seasons until season 15 (the pre-FOX era) as well, and other Idol season as well.

The color design was more contrast and bright, and so far it has been used in other shows such as SPOP Sing! (season 1) (so far only one show has done that using the template, for the record). The reason for the change is because that the blue box saying elimination and the gray header are not properly contrast and a bold typeface is heavily used for elimination. The colorful design is much more appealing, appropriate, and consistent like the one used for displaying results in other singing reality shows such as The Voice (American TV series) and The X Factor (British TV series).

I just want to look for editors to help because I (plus some other editors) am busy. Thanks for lending a hand. TVSGuy (talk) 09:01, 14 November 2020 (UTC)

One of your templates stopped working
The main page for this task force, WikiProject Television/Idols task force, states that "This WikiProject is believed to be inactive." Just in case one of the Idols task force members still checks, you should know that your Template:AI contestant no longer works, as the underlying template data  no longer exists.

 * Since the WikiProject Television/Idols task force is likely done, have placed a request at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Television, which has already led to an editor looking into it. Jmg38 (talk) 04:35, 15 April 2022 (UTC)
