  • Alright, the centralization of Steve Show episode information is completed, except it hasn't been implemented for many of the Series 1 episodes. For recent and early episodes, though, it works great. Unfortunately, I haven't converted this episode to the new system.
Here's a quick tutorial:
  • Each shows information is contained in a Template page. Each show Template page is named the same, "Template:<Show Date>". For example, 22 July 2007's information should be found at Template:22 July 2007.
  • In each template page, this code should be present:
{{Steve Show Episode {{{1}}}
| series = <series number>
| number = <episode number in the series>
| total = <episode number in total number of episodes>
| date = <date of show>
| with = <people on the show>
| unedited = <links to unedited version of the show>
| edited = <links to edited version of the show>
| cut = <links to cut version of the show>
| discuss = <forum thread number>
| previous = <previous episode date>
| next = <next episode date>
| info = <info about the episode, shown on the episode page>
| description = <description of the show, shown on The Steve Show page>
}}

<noinclude>
=Preview=
{{{{PAGENAME}}|Page}}
</noinclude>
  • The Preview header at the bottom is not included and is only there for convenience. It allows you to see what the episode page will look like without having to visit it (after you submit the template).
  • Once you create a Template:<Show Date> page, there are three formats (for now):
  1. For an episode page, add {{<Show Date>|Page}} to the respective page. Example: {{22 July 2007|Page}} put onto the 22 July 2007 will display the episode data in "episode page" format.
  2. For the Download:The Steve Show page, use {{<Show Date|Download}}
  3. For the The Steve Show page, use {{<Show Date|Episode}}
  • After all that, one edit of the Template:<Show Date> page and all pages are updated with the new information.
Hope this helps. Any questions, feel free to ask. It might be good practice for you to start this show's template page, so I'll leave it empty for now. If you are having trouble, tell me. It shouldn't be too much different than editing the infoboxes that used to be on the old Steve Show episode pages (and is still on this one as of now). --Squeek 22:30, 30 September 2007 (EDT)
