Welcome to the Bell System Task Force, a task force of WikiProject Telecommunications. A WikiProject is a group of pages in the Wikipedia article namespace which are devoted to the management of a specific topic or family of topics within Wikipedia; and, simultaneously, a group of editors who use those pages to collaborate on encyclopedic work. It is not a place to write encyclopedia articles directly, but a resource to help coordinate and organize the writing and editing of those articles. This group focuses on the history of the Bell System.
Open tasks
Here are some tasks awaiting attention:
Article requests : Pictures needed for the older telephone sets, handsets, subsets, etc.
Expand : History of all the Bell operating companies.
Verify : All information posted should be verifiable with listed references

The claims do not hold up when examined against other sources (Lumen does not use any Bell trademarks) and a typo caused by autocorrect does not warrant a blanket revert of the removal of incorrect information.)Tags: TwinkleUndo

The Bell System Memorial said Mountain Bell Telephone Company still exists but doesn't use the Mountain Bell name anymore. They now do business as Lumen Technologies. Next time, please contact me directly when you don't actually agree with what I am saying or doing before making any drastic edits on Wikipedias.)Tags: TwinkleUndoReverted
