This is a documentation subpage for Template:Episode table. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

This template is used on approximately 21,000 pages and changes may be widely noticed. Test changes in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them.

This template uses Lua: Module:Episode table (sandbox)

Usage

The purpose of the {{Episode table}} template is to easily add header row to episode tables for television series, with up to 13 different columns, and optionally set the widths of these columns, and includes the {{Episode list}} template in the |episode= parameter. Cells are included by declaring the specific variable in one of two ways: title= includes the "Title" cell with no set width, and title=30 includes the "Title" cell with a width of 30%.

Adding the {{Episode list}} template in the |episode= parameter effectively doubles the post-expand include size of those templates. For shows with many episodes or seasons, to avoid errors, use {{Episode table/top}} and {{Episode table/bottom}} to surround the {{Episode list}} templates instead (note that the |anchor= parameter will not work with this method). You can further reduce the include size by directly invoking the modules with {{#invoke:Episode table|top}}, {{#invoke:Episode list|list}}, and {{#invoke:Episode table|bottom}}.

Examples

Standard columns:

{{Episode table|caption=This is a caption|background=#B40000 |overall=5 |season=5 |title=17 |director=11 |writer=37 |airdate=10 |prodcode=6 |viewers=9 |country=U.S.}}

All columns:

{{Episode table |overall= |season= |title= |aux1= |director= |writer= |aux2= |aux3= |airdate= |altdate= |prodcode= |viewers= |aux4= |country= |aux1T=Foreign title |aux2T=Guest writer |aux3T=Featured character |aux4T=Online viewers |altdateT=UK airdate}}

With {{Episode list}}:

{{Episode table |background = #005F6C |overall = 6 |series = 6 |title = 20 |director = 14 |writer = 15 |airdate = 16 |prodcode = 8 |viewers = 9 |aux4 = 6 |country = UK |overallT = Story |seriesT = Episode |aux4T = AI |aux4R = {{Dummy reference}} |episodes =

}}

With {{Episode list}}, using {{Episode table/top}} and {{Episode table/bottom}}:

{{Episode table/top|background = #005F6C |overall = 6 |series = 6 |title = 20 |director = 14 |writer = 15 |airdate = 16 |prodcode = 8 |viewers = 9 |aux4 = 6 |country = UK |overallT = Story |seriesT = Episode |aux4T = AI |aux4R = {{Dummy reference}} }}

Template:Episode table/bottom

Parted seasons

For seasons which have been split into parts, use {{Episode table/part}}, as per the examples below. The part row has a HTML ID attribute applied to it, equal to the text displayed; i.e. the ID attributes of the following examples will be "Part 1" and "Athelstan's Journal".

{{Episode table/part|p=1|c=#183E54}}

{{Episode table/part|p=Athelstan's Journal|c=#061453|nopart=y}}

Parameters

Each cell parameter has an alias to match the parameters used in {{Episode list}}. In the Cell Inclusion & Widths rows, the original parameter is listed, followed by its episode-list alias. This means that this:

{{Episode table |background=#B40000 |overall=5 |season=5 |title=17 |director=11 |writer=37 |airdate=10 |prodcode=6 |viewers=9 |country=U.S.}}

will produce exactly the same as this:

{{Episode table |background=#B40000 |EpisodeNumber=5 |EpisodeNumber2=5 |Title=17 |DirectedBy=11 |WrittenBy=37 |OriginalAirDate=10 |ProdCode=6 |Viewers=9 |country=U.S.}}

*: These variables can be included but not set to a value, e.g. |title=, which will include the cell but not set a width to it.
