Thank you. ^_^ What should I do if I want to apply a reference to an entire episode table, as in Tide-Line Blue (the edit), except when "Episode table" templates are used instead a table as a wrapper around individual "Episode list" templates? —DocWatson42 (talk) 19:29, 20 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@DocWatson42: I've converted the table to use {{Episode table}}, as it provides the standardized formatting for the headings that will accept any future updates. (As of note, this is a long time work project to adjust pages on the site that still do not use the table heading, and animes are particularly lacking of this). Second, actually looking at the sources, they seem to be supporting titles, so I've used the |titleR=. If this is not the case, you can use additional "R" parameters to put the the references to the other columns. Or, move the sources out of the table entirely as prose ahead of the table noting those are the sources. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 21:14, 20 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I was glancing at an article, and I realized to really present the information in a useful way, the table needed to be sortable (since air dates in various countries and production order differ). Is there an option to do this already somehow or is it worth considering here? I see this has been issue has been touched on before. In particular, I'm referring to List of The Avengers (TV series) episodes series 6 in this case. The information is all there but it's so hard to read in the current table format I've had to make my own. Tduk (talk) 13:43, 16 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Can you provide context? The date in the table should represent the first time viewers are able to watch the episode in the country of production. So for a British show, if it airs on the BBC, it should be that date. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 22:16, 12 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The BBC and others have a tendency now to broadcast a series on Terrestial or satellite then after the first episode make all episodes available on line. I've been using the terrestial date with a note under the heading all episodes available on the I player if it's the BBC.REVUpminster (talk) 09:24, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
