Well, no; I would consider ''Torchwood'' series 1 to be television because it was originally broadcast on a television channel. The fact that the channel was online is irrelevant to me. The crucial thing IMO is whether the online material was released via a television channel or not. So from my reasoning, DW stuff on iTunes would be considered WEBCAST or just WEB, while BBC3, BBC iPlayer, BBCi, BBC Red Button are all TV. | Well, no; I would consider ''Torchwood'' series 1 to be television because it was originally broadcast on a television channel.

Well, no; I would consider Torchwood series 1 to be television because it was originally broadcast on a television channel. The fact that the channel was online is irrelevant to me. The crucial thing IMO is whether the online material was released via a television channel or not. So from my reasoning, DW stuff on iTunes would be considered WEBCAST or just WEB, while BBC3, BBC iPlayer, BBCi, BBC Red Button are all TV.
Going by your definition, though, the WEBCAST and HOMEVID categories logically should be done away with, and I actually think it's the right thing for you do in order to maintain consistency (even if I don't agree with it).
As I mentioned earlier, I'll go along with whatever the wiki decides, and I've even whipped up a prototype revision of the DWTV template at my sandbox. I've made sure to include the Tardisodes, the prequels, and other WEBCAST and HOMEVID material.
