Template:Infobox television episode/doc

Infobox television episode is used to create an infobox which summarizes the main information of a particular television episode or internet video.

Usage
The infobox may be added by pasting the template as shown below into an article, typically at the top of an article above the lead section. This infobox creates a short description based on the data provided to the infobox. For more information on this, see the documentation at Template:Television episode short description.

Maintenance
If you encounter a usage of the template which you want to quickly restore to the above standard, use.

Parameters
Link people only if they have articles. For most of the fields below, if there are multiple entries, separate them using bulleted lists. When adding data to fields, do not use small text as this reduces the size of the text to below 85% of the page font size. See Manual of Style/Accessibility for more information.

Controlling line-breaking in embedded bulletless lists
Template may be used with  and  to control line-breaking in bulletless lists embedded in the infobox (e.g. cast and other credits lists), to prevent wrapped long entries from being confused with multiple entries. See Template:Wbr/doc for details.
