 | This is a documentation subpage for Template:Infobox television channel. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
 | This template adds an automatically generated short description. If the automatic short description is not optimal, replace it by adding {{Short description}} at the top of the article. |
| As of February 11, 2022, satellite, cable and IPTV channel number fields have been removed. Online fields will be removed soon (to allow for appropriate live stream links to be saved). Terrestrial fields will remain. See the RfC at Template talk:Infobox television channel#RfC for removal of "Availability" section. |
