Шаблон:Episode list/sublist/sandbox

Ҳуҷҷатгузорӣ

This template creates a table row, for use in a list of episodes, primarily for television. The number, and use, of columns a table has, is defined by the beginning wikitext of that table (further explained below), and is not defined by this template. In order for this template to provide a table column for a given episode, parameters must either be included, or excluded. An included parameter, although empty, will provide a cell for that field (and thus column), while excluding a parameter will not provide a cell for that field.

Parameters

Episode list parameters and basic guidelines
Field name Type Description Recommended values
EpisodeNumber Optional, desirable A number representing the episode's order in the series. For example, the first episode would be 1 or 01, and so on. When defined, the specified number also generates a link anchor, prefixed by "ep"; for example, "[[List of episodes#ep1]]" or "[[List of episodes#ep01]]". In creating the anchor, the text specified for the number is treated literally: to generate the most straight-forward versions of anchors as previously exemplified, specify only a number, omitting any use of . number - do not include additional content as this can break linking
EpisodeNumber2 Optional A second episode number column. Useful for when a series aired in a different order, or only included certain episodes, etc. When used with multi-season series, this field is typically used to represent the episode's order in the season. number
Title Required The title of the episode. The title will appear in "quotes" when rendered, so it is not necessary to place them in quotes beforehand. Only link to an episode article if it has already been created. wikitext, may include links to valid articles.
RTitle Optional Unformatted parameter that can be used to add a reference after "Title", or can be used as a "raw title" to replace "Title" completely. Future episodes should include a reference in this field to comply with Wikipedia:Verifiability. wikitext, references, etc
AltTitle Optional An alternative title, such as the title of a foreign show's episode in its native language, or a title that was originally changed. It will be listed below Title and be presented in "quotes". wikitext, may include links to valid articles.
RAltTitle Optional Unformatted parameter that can be used to add a reference after "AltTitle", or can be used as a "raw title" to replace "AltTitle" completely. wikitext, references, etc
Aux1 Optional General purpose parameter. The meaning is specified by the column header. wikitext, may include links
DirectedBy Optional Name of the episode's director
WrittenBy Optional Primary writer(s) of the episode
Aux2 Optional General purpose parameter. The meaning is specified by the column header.
Aux3 Optional General purpose parameter. The meaning is specified by the column header.
OriginalAirDate Optional This is the date the episode first aired on TV, or is scheduled to air. date, formatted using {{start date}} use |df=y for day-first format; omit for month-first.
AltDate Optional The next notable air date, such as the first air date of an anime in English. date, formatted per . Do not use {{start date}} if OriginalAirDate is present.[N 1]
ProdCode Optional The production code in the series. When defined, this parameter also creates a link anchor, prefixed by "pc"; for example, "[[List of episodes#pc01]]". plain text
Viewers Optional, desirable Number of viewers who watched the episode. Should include a reference. The inclusion of viewer figures is supported by and provides encyclopaedic content beyond what might normally be found in a TV guide. It is therefore desirable to include referenced ratings information in an episode list. "Final" viewer numbers should be used. Number, followed by a reference.
Aux4 Optional Optional parameter. The meaning is specified by the table header. wikitext, may include links
ShortSummary Optional A short 100–200 word plot summary of the episode. Make summaries specific to that episode (as in, a description that would normally not be confused with another episode). Episode summaries must not be copied from other sources, as this violates WP:COPYRIGHT. Further guidance on plot summaries may be found at WP:TVPLOT. Leaving this parameter empty will result in the summary row not appearing for this episode.
LineColor Optional Colors the separator line between episode entries. If not defined the color defaults to "#CCCCFF" and the article populates Гурӯҳ:Episode list using the default LineColor. Use of "#", or anything but a valid hex code will result in an invalid syntax. Hex code, not preceded by "#". e.g. enter "00ff00" instead of "#00ff00"
TopColor Optional Colors the main row of information (that is, not the ShortSummary row). If not defined, it defaults to the wikitable standard background shading of "#F9F9F9", except when ShortSummary is used, and then it defaults to "#f2f2f2". The excessive use of the parameter is discouraged by Wikipedia's guideline on styles and markup options. Articles using this parameter are in Гурӯҳ:Episode lists with row deviations.
RowColor Optional This parameter is a "switch" that must only be defined when the EpisodeNumber= entry is not a regular number (eg. "12–13" for two episodes described in one table entry). When transcluding the table from a season article into a main episode list article, irregular EpisodeNumber= entries break up the striping effect the template introduces. If the first episode number is even, define RowColor= as On. If the first episode number is odd, define RowColor= as Off. All further uses of Template:Episode list in the table must also have the RowColor= parameters defined to alternate between Off and On to avoid further breakages in the striping. "On", "on", "Yes", "yes", "Y", or "y";
"Off", "off", "No", "no", "N", "n"

This is where information from the template is placed when rendered (|LineColor=, |TopColor=, and |RowColor= are not shown, since there's no text to display):

{{{EpisodeNumber}}} {{{EpisodeNumber2}}} "{{{Title}}}"{{{RTitle}}}
"{{{AltTitle}}}"{{{RAltTitle}}}
{{{Aux1}}} {{{DirectedBy}}} {{{WrittenBy}}} {{{Aux2}}} {{{Aux3}}} {{{OriginalAirDate}}} {{{AltDate}}} {{{ProdCode}}} {{{Viewers}}} {{{Aux4}}}
{{{ShortSummary}}} 

Using the template

When using optional parameters (such as Aux1 or AltDate) only list the parameters that are being used, and adjust the table headers accordingly. This will help avoid confusion when one entry has a parameter filled out, and another does not. A table cell will be open for each listed parameter, whether it is filled out or not.

To apply an entry to an episode listing, add this template where the episode would go in the List of episodes. The full syntax is as follows, remove the parameters that are not being used in the table:

{{Episode list
| EpisodeNumber   = 
| EpisodeNumber2  = 
| Title           = 
| RTitle          = 
| AltTitle        = 
| RAltTitle       = 
| Aux1            = 
| DirectedBy      = 
| WrittenBy       = 
| Aux2            = 
| Aux3            = 
| OriginalAirDate = <!-- {{Start date|YYYY|MM|DD|df=}} -->
| AltDate         = 
| ProdCode        = 
| Viewers         = 
| Aux4            = 
| ShortSummary    = <!-- Don't add copyrighted text, e.g. from the show's website -->
| LineColor       = 
}}

Because this is only part of a WikiTable, you first must "open" the WikiTable. You need to edit this example according to the optional parameters that you want to show in your table, ensuring that the code used complies with requirements. An explanation of how to do this is detailed at WP:DTT. For example, to create a list with only EpisodeNumber, Title, OriginalAirDate, ProdCode, and ShortSummary parameters, open the table as follows:

{|class="wikitable plainrowheaders" style="width:100%; margin:auto;"
|-
! scope="col" style="width:3em;" | No.
! scope="col" | Title
! scope="col" style="width:12em;" | Original air date
! scope="col" | Production<br>code

The {{Episode list}} templates would then follow here:

{{Episode list
| EpisodeNumber   = 01
| Title           = Reborn
| OriginalAirDate = {{start date|1998|09|21}}
| ProdCode        = 98101-201
| ShortSummary    = Immortal thief Amanda is followed by detectives Nick Wolfe and Claudia Hoffmann.
}}
{{Episode list
| EpisodeNumber   = 02
| Title           = Full Disclosure
| OriginalAirDate = {{start date|1998|09|28}}
| ProdCode        = 98102-202
| ShortSummary    = Wolfe and Amanda cannot prevent Navajo code talker Walter from being killed.
}}

After the final episode entry (template) you will close the WikiTable with:

|}

Examples

The above code would appear as follows:

No. Title Original air date Production
code
01"Reborn"Сентябр 21, 1998 (1998-09-21)98101-201
Immortal thief Amanda is followed by detectives Nick Wolfe and Claudia Hoffmann.
02"Full Disclosure"Сентябр 28, 1998 (1998-09-28)98102-202
Wolfe and Amanda cannot prevent Navajo code talker Walter from being killed.

A more complex case would look like the following:

Sublists

Occasionally, when dealing with a very long series, you may wish to break the list up into separate sublists. When doing so, the list should be broken at season breaks, or otherwise years.

Sublists should be named as "List of X episodes (season y)", and transcluded onto the main list to prevent ending up with two lists of duplicate information. For sublist pages, you should use {{Episode list/sublist|List of ''X'' episodes}} for each episode, where "List of X episodes" is the name of the main episode list. So, for instance, if you're working on List of Bleach episodes, you would split it into List of Bleach episodes (season 1) and List of Bleach episodes (season 2), and each episode on the sublist would use {{Episode list/sublist|List of Bleach episodes}}.

When transcluded onto the main list, this template removes any summaries, and alternates the background row color between light and dark gray, depending on the value of |EpisodeNumber=. Occasionally, a multi-part episode will skew the pattern between odd and even EpisodeNumbers, to rectify this, use the RowColor parameter. A "On" input will color the row dark gray, like an even number normally would, on the "List of X episodes" page, while a "Off" input will color the row light gray, like an odd number normally would.

For the purpose of transclusion, each sublist must make use of <onlyinclude> tags, with the opening tag just before the WikiTable, and the closing tag at the very end of the table. This prevents the lead, external links, templates, categories, interwiki links, and all other unnecessary information from being transcluded onto the main list.

When transcluding onto the main list, you should make use of {{main}}. For example, referring to Bleach again, the main list would have the following code under the "Episode list" header:

== Season 1 ==
{{main|List of Bleach episodes (season 1)}}
{{:List of Bleach episodes (season 1)}}
<!-- To edit the episodes in this section, you need to edit the article listed above. -->

== Season 2 ==
{{main|List of Bleach episodes (season 2)}}
{{:List of Bleach episodes (season 2)}}
<!-- To edit the episodes in this section, you need to edit the article listed above. -->

Note the colon (:) at the beginning of the transclusions (for example, {{:List of ...); this is necessary when transcluding an article. If you tried to transclude List of Bleach episodes (season 1), without using the colon, you would get Шаблон:List of Bleach episodes (season 1), a redlink to a nonexistent template.

Tips

It may be helpful to include a hidden message that will appear when someone edits the article. Placed above the table headers and under the article section, such as:

==Episodes==
<!-- For help with this template see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Episode_list -->
<onlyinclude>
{| class="wikitable plainrowheaders"

This message won't be visible when normally viewing the article. A message such as this notes where one can get help for the template.

Microformat

The HTML markup produced by this template includes an hCalendar microformat, which makes the event details parsable by computers, either acting automatically to catalogue article across Wikipedia, or via a browser tool operated by a person, to (for example) add the subject to a calendar or diary application. For more information about the use of microformats on Wikipedia, please see the microformat project.

Dates will only be included if you use {{Start date}} or {{End date}} (use the former for single dates). As an alternative, you may use {{Start-date}} and {{End-date}}.

hCalendar uses HTML classes including:

  • attendee
  • contact
  • description
  • dtend
  • dtstart
  • location
  • organiser
  • summary
  • vevent

Please do not rename or remove these classes; nor collapse nested elements which use them.

Pages which use multiple instances of this template can also use {{UF-timeline}}, in their external links section, to generate a SIMILE timeline. It renders as:

For shows where each episode is from a different, single, specific place (for example, Time Team, one of the Aux fields can contain the coordinates, applied using {{coord}}.

Subpages

"Hacks" of this template, also known as "forks", are discouraged. Any discussion regarding forks should occur on this template's, not the fork's or article's, talk page.

Notes

  1. {{Start date}} emits metadata as part of the parent template's hCalendar microformat. It is only needed once per episode, and may be harmful if used twice or more.
