I have created a broadcasting wiki that anyone can edit. MastWiki includes channel lists and other broadcasting related information. The site is around 4-5 months old.
The site also includes channel lists which are constantly updated (and also no longer available on Wikipedia).
Valuable - now that, as you say, Wikipedia frowns upon lists.
Yes - the various editors who keep The Chase page up to date were rather annoyed to hear that lists of game show episodes and their results wasn't encyclopaedic. Such problems seem to be pointed out less quickly with pages on British topics, as the American editors (with a higher proportion who are fastidious with, and knowledgeable about, the rules) tend not to touch the British pages.

If anyone is interested, broadcaster pages are being further improved.
Can someone explain to me the difference between ChannelWiki and the normal TV station pages on Wikipedia?

Please elaborate?
If you mean in terms of content, broadcaster pages are evolving with more information and channel lists/technical information are not/no longer available on Wikipedia.
Thanks.

From what I've seen ChannelWiki while not as detailed, is much more accurate than Wikipedia.
We're getting there, and as you say detail is key.
Channel lists are also very detailed (soon broadcaster pages will be that way), and are updated daily. ChannelWiki's forums which are soon to come will also tie in with the wiki (same user accounts etc.).
