Parameters
Link people to their article or redirect. For most of the fields below, if there are multiple entries, separate them using bulleted lists (*
). When adding data to fields, do not use small text as this reduces the size of the text to below 85% of the page font size. See Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Accessibility#Text for more information.
Parameter | Explanation |
---|---|
italic_title | A "no" value will disable the automatic italicization of the series name in the parenthesis. This parameter should not be used most of the time. |
image | An image, if needed. Wikilinking, "File:", and pixel size not required. Remember, virtually all TV screenshots are copyrighted, so they must be low resolution, and be accompanied by a non-free use rationale. There is no blanket allowance for an image per episode. A non-free screenshot should be used only if it meets the Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria, i.e. typically if it is required to illustrate a crucial element of the episode that is the object of explicit, sourced analytical commentary and where that commentary is in genuine need of visual support. |
image_size | Image size in pixels. Should be 250 or less. If not specified, image defaults to frameless (220px). "px" is not required. |
image_upright | Use of this parameter is preferred to using |image_size= , as it allows auto-sizing of images according to user preferences. By default, the infobox image scales to |image_upright=1 (which is 1 × 220px if the default thumbnail size has not been changed at Special:Preferences). For upright posters, a value of |image_upright=1 is recommended.
The size should not be set to a value that would result in an image width greater than 300px. See help below for guidance on determining the value to be used. |
image_alt | Alt text for image per WP:MOSALT. |
caption | A caption explaining the image. |
season | The number of the season this episode is part of. |
episode | The number of the episode within the season. |
segment | The number or letter of the segment. If the segment is not numbered, use |segment=yes .
|
director | The director(s) of this episode. |
writer | The writer(s) of this episode. |
story | The writer(s) of the episode's story. Use this field instead of the normal writer field if television episodes divide writing credits between teleplay and story writers. |
teleplay | The writer(s) of the episode's teleplay. Use this field instead of the normal writer field if television episodes divide writing credits between teleplay and story writers. |
based_on | The original work the episode is based on. Use {{Based on}} to add the title of the source material and the name(s) of the source material writer(s). Use this field in conjunction with teleplay and story where applicable. This field should be used if the episode is based on previously produced or published material, such as books, plays, articles, old screenplays, etc. and should not be used where the source material is ambiguous. This field should not be used for general adaptations, such as The Flash episodes being based on characters from DC Comics, however, do use it if a specific episode of that series is a direct adaptation of a specific comic. |
music | The music of this episode. Use {{Work by author}} to add the title of the song and the name(s) of the song performer. Television episodes often include numerous songs; only include the most notable (typically songs playing during key scenes). |
editor | The editor(s) of this episode. |
production | The production code or number of this episode. |
airdate | The original airing date of the episode; use {{Start date}}. |
length | The original length of the episode, including credits, in minutes. It should indicate runtime (without commercials), or with commercials. |
guests | Guest star(s) in the episode. Include the name of the character the guest actor portrays using a single space, "as", and another single space: actor as character .
|
prev | The title of the previous episode. If an article or redirect exist, link to it. If one does not exist, consider creating a redirect to the episode anchor in the season article. If a redirect isn't created directly link to the season article with an anchor to that episode. If this is the first episode of the TV series, leave blank. The title is automatically put within quotation marks, unless |rprev= is used.
|
next | The title of the next episode. If an article or redirect exist, link to it. If one does not exist, consider creating a redirect to the episode anchor in the season article. If a redirect isn't created directly link to the season article with an anchor to that episode. If this is the last episode of the TV series, leave blank. The title is automatically put within quotation marks, unless |rnext= is used.
|
blackboard | A transcription of what Bart Simpson writes on the blackboard during the intro sequence, or what happens during this time. |
couch_gag | A description of the couch gag at the end of the show's intro sequence. |
commentary | The names of the staff members who provide audio commentary on the episode. Separate multiple people using bulleted lists (* )
