Template talk:Episode Release Date

Types

Right now, we have PAL, NTSC, iTunes, HDTV and DVD. What are we gonna do with, say, the German airdates? They're in PAL, as are the UK ones... --Catrope^{(Talk to me or e-mail me)} 01:27, 4 May 2007 (CDT)

Right now the "look" isn't even done. Right now I did something as an example. Once we really implement this, the "table" will look a lot cleaner. Shane ^{(T - C - E)} 01:42, 4 May 2007 (CDT)

OK. Just saying that we're likely to have to change PAL and NTSC to US and UK respectively. FWIW, I also implemented the DVD field; it does of course require that you set title to something like "Battlestar Galactica - Season 2.0 (Region 1 DVD)" or similar. --Catrope^{(Talk to me or e-mail me)} 01:45, 4 May 2007 (CDT)

The DVD field is tricky. I gotta find our working example. Shane ^{(T - C - E)} 01:46, 4 May 2007 (CDT)

Template:Season 2.0 NTSC DVD release date? --Catrope^{(Talk to me or e-mail me)} 01:48, 4 May 2007 (CDT)

Yeah. That template is just on all the release date things, but I added the dvdtype field. Shane ^{(T - C - E)} 01:49, 4 May 2007 (CDT)

Good one. On a related note, the episode guides currently use Template:Season 2.0 NTSC DVD release date, but BW:FRL uses links to Template:Scattered NTSC DVD release date etc. All ten are identical and just taking up space completely useless IMO. Mass purge? --Catrope^{(Talk to me or e-mail me)} 01:52, 4 May 2007 (CDT)

No idea what you mean. Do one example and then I will see what you mean. Shane ^{(T - C - E)} 01:55, 4 May 2007 (CDT)

If you install my javascript.. like what I did with Peter for only temporary, youc can see it with the javascript enabled. Shane ^{(T - C - E)} 02:06, 4 May 2007 (CDT)

Done. I see the [show]/[hide] thingies in the second example now. Is that all the JS enables or is there more I haven't discovered yet? Also, to clarify. Look at Special:Whatlinkshere/Template:Scattered NTSC DVD release date and realize its uselessness. In the same fashion, we also have Template:Valley of Darkness NTSC DVD release date through Template:Pegasus NTSC DVD release date, all with identical content and identical uselessness. --Catrope^{(Talk to me or e-mail me)} 02:24, 4 May 2007 (CDT)

Ok. Don't do a "mass purge" to a "mass redirect" to the correct template. So the data stayies the same -- we still need these types of template of the Media wiki as they are intergrated into the Image tagging system. Shane ^{(T - C - E)} 02:27, 4 May 2007 (CDT)
