** We shouldn't use it to update AOTW and GNOW, since those templates need to remain the same until the next episode/graphic novel airs/is released. For example, Hardvice just updated the Currentep to ''[[The Line]]'' early since the checklist for ''[[Fight or Flight]]'' was finished. The difference is that [[Template:Currentep]] is where we are at in documenting the show. That is not necessarily where the show actually is in terms of airing.--[[User:MiamiVolts|MiamiVolts]] ([[User_talk:MiamiVolts|talk]]) 13:42, 26 October 2007 (EDT)

I like what you were after with this, Ryan. I wonder if there's any way to make it work?--Hardvice (talk) 13:23, 26 October 2007 (EDT)

  • Howabout this: instead of updating this page manually, we add a template, template:currentep. We can use that all over the place to print the name of the current episode, including here, where we redirect to "[[Episode talk:{{currentep}}]]". It would be just as much maintenance as this redirect is now, but we could use it in a lot more places--including automating Current events.--Hardvice (talk) 13:27, 26 October 2007 (EDT)
