Staff credits

Expand here

To summon the names of different members of staff.

{{Mainstaff|ED1}}

Will get you the Episode Director for episode 1, namely Masayuki Kojima

{{Mainstaff|EDj1}}

Will get you the Episode Director for episode 1, but in Japanese: 小島正幸

If a staffmember is there for the entire run of the show you can use the code for their role without an episode number. Only Episode Director, StoryBoardist and Animation Director change per episode.

Remember: Some episodes have multiple Storyboard artists or Animation Directors. You can get the secondary person by adding a B after the episode number.

You can go to Template:Mainstaff to edit and add staff members.

{{Mainstaff|EDj1}} ¦ {{Mainstaff|ED1}}

Will make 小島正幸 ¦ Masayuki Kojima

To make it easier to combine those two, you can use Template:MainstaffEp.

{{MainstaffEp|ED1}}

Will make
小島正幸 ¦ Masayuki Kojima

Staff codes:
ED = Episode director
SB = Storyboards
AD = Animation director
Add a 'j' to get the Japanese script

Episode cast list

Expand here

The cast list template takes the episode number from the page name and formats the image link accordingly
It's made in several parts, from top to bottom.

• Template:CharBoxLang = Creates separate tabs for languages. This is the template that is linked. If you want to add a language, start here.
• Template:CharBoxEpi = This is where you add characters per episode in order of appearance. Each character links to a separate character template page. Add episodes here. Use the names of the pages that represent those characters (so the Dutch name unless there is only a name in another language).
• Template:CharBox = This is what the character box looks like and what links through to the separate character template pages, the voice actor page per language and the voice actor picture template. Change what the box looks like here.
• Template:CharBox Alfred Jodocus Kwak (example) = In this template you can write down the different names in different languages for the characters. Be as thorough as possible. Using the Translation Master List.
• Template:CharLangNL (example) = In these lists you can find all the cast from that language. Add new castmembers here.
• Template:CharVApicture = This one can be left alone, but handles how voice actor portraits are handled. Just name your file VA_<actor name>.jpg and it will work.

Episode lists

Expand here

There are a couple of ways and levels to enter in episode lists and there's several things you need to input to add a language. Use the standard language code.

Level 1
This makes an episode list with just the episodes with links from 1 to 52.

{{EpisodeList|NL|1}}

This makes an episode list with just the episodes with links from 1 to 52, but in two separate columns.

{{EpisodeList|NL|1B}}

Level 2
This makes an episode list with the names, translations and original airdates (when available) in a table.

{{EpisodeList|NL|2}}

Level 3
This makes an episode list with the names, translations and original airdates (when available) in a table.

{{EpisodeList|NL|3}}

The level 3 episode list is made with Template:EpisodeBox, which includes everything you can know for an episode. However to add a language to the episode list, several things have to be made or filled in. Select a code from the list (or add one to the list). The following pages need to be added to or created:

• Title cards: Upload screengrabs of all 52 episodes for this language. Use maximum resolution, best quality, but not AI upscales. Use the following naming convention: AJKep<episode number>_<language code>.png
• Episode title: Go to Template:EpName to add the episode titles in their original native language and script. Use the correct language code and follow the list structure. No extra capitalization unless it's a name or the language requires it (like German).
• Episode name in other script: Sometimes, like Japanese, the script is not understandable for English reading visitors. Go to Template:EpPronun and add a pronunciation to the list. Japanese always in Hepburn and not Romaji. Use Template:EpPronunNoBR to skip the line breaks.
• Translated episode title: Still in Template:EpName use the proper English translation in a list that adds the correct language code + "TR". Follow the list structure.
• Alternate home video titles: Some home video releases have different names for the episodes on their home video. Enter here Template:EpHVName the name in their original language. These should go here and should be attributed with the {{Cite AV Media}} template and should include a literal translation. Follow the structure in the template.
• Alternate adaptation titles: Some book or comic adaptations of episodes have different names. These should be catalogged in their original language in Template:EpALTName, and should be attributed with the {{Cite Book}} or {{Cite AV Media}} template. Follow the structure of the template.
• Airdate: If known, go to Template:AirDate and follow the list. Always formatted YYYY-MM-DD.
• Airtime: If known, go to Template:AirTime and follow the list. Always formatted XX:XX - XX:XX.
• Station: If known go to Template:Station and fill in the correct station, follow the list.
• Home releases: Go to Template:HomeReleaseNL and copy what's in there and make a new template and change NL for the correct language code and fill in the correct information with pictures .
• Youtube link: (should probably be streaming video link) can be found in Template:YTLink. Follow the list.
• Summaries: Go to Template:SummaryNL and copy what's in there and make a new template and change NL for the correct language code and fill in the correct information with pictures. Be sure to use the original language names, but written in the western alphabet.
