(It was about time we got a documentation system like this for this template. Sure is going to make it easier to edit this template later on.)
Line 1: Line 1:
<noinclude>This template is for creating a standardised way of giving episode links.
<noinclude>{{documentation}}
 
The intend is to create a much simpler way to deal with episode linking.
==Episodes==
For episodes, the template takes one argument, the production ID, the episode number or the title of the episode (in correct title writing though).
 
Examples:
<pre>{{e|1ACV01}}
{{e|1}}
{{e|Space Pilot 3000}}</pre>
All these would print {{e|1}}.
 
==Films==
Films work in a similar fashion, though the argument can only be the film number or title.
 
<pre>{{e|x1}}
{{e|Bender's Big Score}}</pre>
These would print {{e|x1}}
 
''Unlike episodes, films appear in italic, because films are treated differently than episodes in that manner.''
 
In case you want to indicate specific episodes within the film, the following method is suggested:
 
<pre>*{{e|x1}}
**{{e|5ACV01}}
**{{e|5ACV02}}</pre>
*{{e|x1}}
**{{e|5ACV01}}
**{{e|5ACV02}}
 
Thusly indicating that the character appeared in the film, but technically only in the two first episodes the film was cut up to.
 
==Special episodes==
There are as of right now, only one special episode.  These are generally not episodes entirely (or rather in the common sense), but should also appear here.  The episode in question is [[Everybody Loves Hypnotoad]] which appeared on the {{eni|x1}} DVD.
 
It can be inserted into an article like so;
 
<pre>*{{e|s1}}</pre>
*{{e|s1}}
 
Should there come more special episodes, the number will simply increment.
 
==See also==

*[[Template:Eni]] - ''the same thing, just without the icon at the end.''

Documentation for {{e}}

Use

This template is for linking to episodes in a more standardised format. It is generally used for list and inline text. Though, for inline text, {{eni}} is recommended as it does not have the icon at the end.

The icon at the end is to make it clear for the reader that it is an episode or film.

There are three types of input; episode, film and special episode. A regular episode is displayed with its title in quotations and its production code at the end in brackets. A film is display with the film's title in italic. And a special episode (for instance Everybody Loves Hypnotoad appearing on the DVD of Bender's Big Score) appears in whatever format applies. When hovering the icon at the end, it can either say "Episode", "Film" or "Special Episode".

Usage

For episodes
{{e|production code OR episode no. OR full title}}
For films
{{e|f=film no. (e.g. f=1) OR full title}}
OR
{{f|film no. OR full title}}
For special episodes
{{e|s=special no. (e.g. s=1)}}

Examples

For episodes
Input:
*{{e|1ACV01}}
*{{e|1}}
*{{e|Space Pilot 3000}}

Output:

To prevent the icon from being alone in its line in the infobox, use {{e|1ACV01|break=yes}}, {{e|1|break=yes}}, or {{e|Space Pilot 3000|break=yes}}.

For films
Input:
*{{e|f=1}}
*{{e|f=Bender's Big Score}}
*{{f|1}}
*{{f|Bender's Big Score}}

Output:

For special episodes:
Input:
*{{e|s=1}}

Output:

Namespaces

Usage

*{{e|1|commentary}}
*{{e|Space Pilot 3000|commentary}}
