Use of date templates in television project templates
In doing some maintenance in the television project, some questions came up about proper formatting of dates within certain templates such as {{Infobox television episode}}. In that template, the |airdate=
parameter is documented to allow for multiple dates to be included as a bulleted list. However, it also asks for the date to be formatted with {{Start date}}. Having done a lot of cleanup on {{Episode list}} lists, I know of the notes included in the documentation about hCalendar microformat and emitting metadata (specifically this note: Template:Episode_list/doc#Notes). So when it was asked how this particular warning applies to other templates we use (such as the episode infobox I mentioned), no one currently working in the project on templates or date format clean up seemed to have an answer. I researched the history of notes in the docs and that's what led me to you - specifically with this edit: [21]. I sheepishly admit I don't understand the "why" around the limitation in {{Episode list}}. I merely know that it exists and therefore patrol use of the template for improperly implemented dates. But since I don't understand "why", when it comes to other templates, I don't know what the proper display should be, nor could I support it in a discussion. So in an instance of {{Infobox television episode}} where |airdate=
is two dates (such as a two part episode), we'd include a bulleted list of dates. Should that be like this:
| airdate = * {{Start date|2020|01|01}} (Part 1) * January 2, 2020 (Part 2)
Or would it be like this:
| airdate = * {{Start date|2020|01|01}} (Part 1) * {{Start date|2020|01|02}} (Part 2)
I have been doing the former, but as I noted, I can't support that in a discussion other than referring back to an inexact example (that of the {{Episode list}}'s use of {{Start date}}).
I hope this isn't too lengthy of a question, and I hope you can enlighten me, or possibly point me in the correct direction. TIA. ButlerBlog (talk) 20:21, 12 May 2023 (UTC)
- hCalendar requires a date in a format which
{{Start date}}
supplies; but it only needs - and can only use - one such date. It should be the start date for the entity to which the parent template describes. Which in the case of the infobox, is the episode (one per infobox, or one per row, in the templates you mention), not its individual parts. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 20:45, 12 May 2023 (UTC)- Thanks! I think I understand a little better (but only a little). So I would assume that in the case of the airdate for {{Infobox television episode}} for a two part episode, the airdate really should be something like:
| airdate = * {{Start date|2020|01|01}} (Part 1) * {{End date|2020|01|02}} (Part 2)
- And in the case of a multi-part (more than 2) episode:
| airdate = * {{Start date|2020|01|01}} (Part 1) * January 2, 2020 (Part 2) * {{End date|2020|01|03}} (Part 3)
- Am I on the right track? ButlerBlog (talk) 21:12, 12 May 2023 (UTC)
