Editing Template:Cite episode

<noinclude>This template is for citing television or radio programs and episodes. The only required field is '''title'''.

==Usage==
All fields '''must''' be lowercase. Copy a blank version to use:

<pre><nowiki>
{{cite episode
 | title =
 | episodelink = 
 | series = 
 | serieslink = 
 | credits = 
 | network = 
 | station = 
 | city = 
 | airdate = 
 | season =
 | number = 
 | timestamp = 
}}
</nowiki></pre>

==Fields==
===Wikilinks===
Most fields can be wikilinked (ie. ''network'' = <nowiki>[[network article|network name]]</nowiki>), but should generally only be linked to an existing Wikipedia article. Any wikilinked field '''must not''' contain any brackets apart from normal round brackets <code>()</code> — don't use <code><nowiki><>[]{}</nowiki></code>.

===Description of fields===
====<small>Syntax (for the technical-minded)</small>====
<div style="font-size: 90%;">
Nested fields either rely on their parent fields, or replace them:
*''parent''
**''child'' — may be used '''with''' ''parent'' (and is ignored if ''parent'' is not used)
**OR:  ''child2'' — may be used '''instead''' of ''parent'' (and is ignored if ''parent'' is used)
</div>

====Description====
*'''title''': The title of the program or episode being cited.
**'''episodelink''': The title of a ''Battlestar Wiki'' article about this episode. Don't link this yourself, it will be linked by the template. Remember that you can use section names here if the only relevant material in ''Battlestar Wiki'' is a section of a larger article such as an episode list.
*'''series''': The name of the series the episode belongs to.
**'''serieslink''': The title of a ''Battlestar Wiki'' article about the series. As with episodelink, don't link this yourself.
*'''credits''': Writers, directors, performers, producers, etc.
*'''network''': The network the episode was aired on. (ex. ABC, NBC, CBS, Fox, Disney, USA Network)
**'''station''': Call letters of the local station (if any).
**'''city''': City of the local station (if any) or network.
*'''airdate''': Full date the program or episode aired, in [[Wikipedia:ISO 8601|ISO 8601]] YYYY-MM-DD format, eg. ''2004-06-27''. Must not be wikilinked.
*'''timestamp''': Time format in HH:MM:SS. Must not be wikilinked.
**'''format''': What medium are you referencing to. (ex. TV, DVD, iTunes) '''TV''' is default.

== Example ==

''A cylon<ref>{{cite episode | title = The A-Team | network = [[Wikipedia:NBC|NBC]] | timestamp = 00:12:35}}</ref> walks through the set of the A-Team during the opening credits.

''The [[Pegasus (RDM)|Pegasus]] has arrived.''<ref>{{cite episode/bsg|2|10}}</ref>
