  • series: Enter the series' name here. This will automatically link to its page on the wiki (or a red link if it doesn't exist yet). (mandatory)
  • epname: Enter the episode's name here. This, too, will automatically link to its page on the wiki (or a red link if it doesn't exist yet). (mandatory)
  • part: If the episode is split into multiple parts, list the number of the one you are referencing here.
  • season: The season the episode was a part of. If you use this parameter, you must add an episode number with the below parameter as well.
  • epnumber: The episode number (as aired).
  • epnumberstandalone: If there is no season number, list the episode under this parameter instead of epnumber.
  • director: Enter the director(s) credited for the episode here. This will not automatically create a link—you will need to add the appropriate markup yourself. (This is to facilitate episodes with multiple directors.)
  • writer: Enter the writer(s) credited for the episode here. Like the above parameter, this will not automatically create links.
  • The following three parameters use Template:D to list the episode's airdate with the appropriate links.
    • month: The month the episode aired in, abbreviated to the first three letters (for instance, August would be "Aug"). This parameter must be filled in for the other two to appear properly.
    • day: The day the episode aired on.
    • year: The year the episode aired in.
  • time: The timecode (XX:XX) of the relevant moment. You may also use a range (XX:XX-XX:XX) if you feel this would be more suitable.
  • transcript: If a transcript page exists, enter its title here. As with the first two parameters, a link will automatically be created.
  • quote: A direct quote from the source. If multiple characters talk, you may use dialogue tags and the <br> tag. For example,
'''Character 1:''' I'm talking!<br>'''Character 2:''' Hey, I'm talking, too!
would render as
Character 1: I'm talking!
Character 2: Hey, I'm talking, too!

Below is an example of this template in action:
Friendship is Magic - "She Talks to Angel" (S9E18). "Big" Jim Miller (d). Nick Confalone (w). Aired August 31, 2019. Timecode: 11:19. "The Stare? You can still do that? Ugh. No fair making me do your bidding against my will."
