Instructions:
- This template creates the basic framework for any new episode article. Please read our style policies for episode articles in our Manual of Style first.
- It starts with the {{Episode infobox}}, which only needs the 3-digit episode-code (epcode) and will then be filled with data from a database in {{EpData}}.
- Next are the {{Episode preamble}} and {{Episode synopsis}}, which both also just need that epcode.
- For all these 3 templates, replace
500with the actual episode code and you're done. - The Plot section is for the detailed plot summary and can be divided into sub-sections if needed. If no plot summary is added now, the {{Episode plot stub}} template should stay in place.
- Next comes the Cast section. The content of this section is commented out when created through this preload template! You have to uncomment it to make its content visible. If the cast section is NOT filled in at the time the article is created, leave everything as it is!
The section is divided into 4 cast-types with custom headers using {{Castheader}}. The whole cast section is also wrapped into a collapsible div which also makes its content appear in columns, which is what the {{Castsec}} template is doing. Please read the MoS linked above for details before editing this part. - Next is the Appearances section which is supposed to contain appearance galleries. This whole section is commented out when created through this preload template as they are usually added later, so just leave everything as it is.
- The optional sections "Media", "Trivia", and "Notes" are not part of this template, as they are usually added later, if at all.
- At the end of the page is the {{Episode navbox}} which again needs the current epcode updated.
- There is no need for any categories or default sorting, this is all done automatically by the infobox.
