Wikipedia:WikiProject Television/Dexter task force

Welcome to Dexter task force of Wikipedia:WikiProject Television. Several Wikipedians have formed this collaboration resource and group dedicated to improving Wikipedia's coverage of the Showtime drama series Dexter and the organization of information and articles on this topic. This page and its subpages contain their suggestions and various resources; it is hoped that this project will help to focus the efforts of other Wikipedians interested in the topic. If you would like to help, please join the project, inquire on the talk page and see the to-do list below.

Goals

1. Write and expand articles related to Dexter - as long as Dexter is on the air, there is new information about the show to be added.
2. Organize and manage that content - a mass of information is of no use if it isn't properly organized. Also, make sure that any activity on any Dexter article is being relayed back to the project. If there is a dispute on a single character's talk page, not everyone is going to see it. Recommend that the dispute be brought to the project, that way you can get the opinions of all the other participants.
