Tracking category for template-set TBA values

Latest comment: 3 months ago1 comment1 person in discussion

A tracking category should be created for when the template sets cells as TBA so if for some reason, usages like List of Ascendance of a Bookworm episodes#ep49 aren't filled in later on, we aren't stuck with pages like that. Gonnym (talk) 15:45, 7 July 2026 (UTC)Reply

Unwanted dash

Latest comment: 3 days ago3 comments2 people in discussion

See Last of the Summer Wine series 6#Episodes. The row for episode 39 overall shows "Christmas–Special" in the second column, but the underlying markup has |EpisodeNumber2=Christmas Special. How can the space be preserved, and the dash suppressed? --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 22:37, 9 October 2026 (UTC)Reply

@Redrose64 Why not just set the value in the cell to – (like Doctor Who series 10#ep264), and add a note in the summary that the episode is a Christmas special? -- Alex_talk 22:41, 9 October 2026 (UTC)Reply

I found a way. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 18:02, 10 October 2026 (UTC)Reply
