Consistent naming pattern
editWorking on consistent subcategory namings here, for the various nations.
Predominant usage is "Television stations in <country name>", so this would be the most consistent usage. For example, the category "Argentine television stations" becomes "Television stations in Argentina". Also, references to "channels" should change to "stations", since this is the category naming (and "channel" implies a specific broadcast frequency rather than a broadcast service).

- I think we first need more concensus on what constitutes television channel, television station, television broadcast, television network. - The DJ 23:41, 24 March 2006 (UTC)
- It seems obvious that many contributors are confused between channels, stations and networks. Probably not helped by the fact that many of them are not native speakers of English, and that the technology has evolved quite rapidly. Does "channel" still imply a specific broadcast frequency? Is it possible to sort this out? Rathfelder (talk) 13:34, 11 November 2018 (UTC)
