If the variables shown in blue boxes below are not given values, they do not appear in the infobox.


This is a quick rough draft of the kind of infobox I thought might be useful for the episode transcriptions. It's the first one I've done, so it obviously isn't great, but I figured it might be a place to start a discussion on what to include in an infobox template so you have an 'at-a-glance' reference to certain information.
{|class="wikitable" cell-padding="1em"
! Variable

!episodeNum
|Use the episode number

!episodeDate
|Date of broadcast, as used in show notes

Do not add a value for this variable unless the transcription has been verified by someone other than the original transcriber

If you go to 'edit' on this page, you can see how easy it is to enter the information for each section, the template for this infobox is [[Template:Draft infoBox]].
To find the name of the image, right-click (or ctrl-click) on the image in the show notes and select 'View image info', which should show the name or location of the image.  


Please let me know what you think.
If taking the name from the location, use the text after the final " / ", including ".jpg" or ".png"
