"Was" in TV articles

I'm still finding TV show articles that follow the form "Name of show was" despite MOS:TV having long established "Name of show is" as a standard. Could a bot be made to find cases of articles still using "was"? Maybe search for that word in the first sentence? Ten Pound Hammer(What did I screw up now?) 19:11, 28 September 2024 (UTC)

WP:QUARRY might be more suited for this. Nardog (talk) 02:19, 7 October 2024 (UTC)
I don't think so – Quarry does not have access to page content, so queries which require checking wikitext cannot be answered with Quarry. jlwoodwa (talk) 00:24, 14 October 2024 (UTC)
I would have thought that at least the lead was available since it's cached for Page Previews. Nardog (talk) 07:22, 14 October 2024 (UTC)
