More pressingly, it will only display properly if the <code>story</code> and <code>date</code> parameters are filled out - the former of which seemingly only applies to the comics (already covered by Template:...") |

Line 3:
With all this in mind, I decided to try my hand at making a simpler template (modeled on the aforementioned comic book template) that fits with the existing use cases [[User:SummerShores/sandbox|on my personal sandbox]]. I was reluctant to replace it entirely, considering it would be a massive change, so I wanted to bring it up here and get some feedback before I made any changes. --[[User:SummerShores|SummerShores]] ([[User talk:SummerShores|talk]]) 23:09, 7 October 2023 (UTC)
: Sorry for the late reply! I think I just repeated the source code over from the templates not thinking to replace the unused parameters. A lot of our older templates have that issue so I never got around to fixing them (if you've noticed any others, please do let me know). I'm okay with switching over to a more refined template like the one in your sandbox but I think it's missing a few potential fields.
* Writer and Director fields, to be consistent with our other citation templates.
* "Part" field, mostly for generation 1 episodes like "[[The End of Flutter Valley]]", which aired in 10 parts.
* Airdate
: Again, thank you for this! I've been needing to fix up our episode articles and things around them for the longest time but kept putting it off for other tasks.--[[User:Amelia|Amelia]] ([[User talk:Amelia|talk]]) 17:47, 10 October 2023 (UTC)
