There was a bug in the infobox with |alt_name=
which I fixed
here. The infobox will now place the value of the text in italics if it is singular. When it is plural it won't, as lists can cause lint errors. These will need italics to be manually added.
Additionally, if the value has disambiguation (such as Another name (1999)
), the template will handle it so only the text outside the parenthesis is in italics.
I'm working on a tracking category for the plural cases so those can be fixed.
Testcases can be found here. Please let me know if you see anything that needs to be fixed.
I'll update the live code in a few days if no issues are reported. Gonnym ( talk) 19:32, 20 January 2024 (UTC)

For Seasonal shows Like Bigg Boss , It is best to add slogan of the season as the image caption in infobox television. For Long time it used to be like that, but yesterday one of the member removed slogan from all edition of Bigg Boss in multiple languages. I Request all Members to propose their suggestions below.

|caption=
resulting in information that is not relevant to the image at all (a standard Bigg Boss logo). This has also
MOS:ACCESSABILITY issues as we're setting screen readers to give incorrect information to their users. I am the editor that removed this usage which was used on exactly 10 articles.

Here's a question regarding {{
infobox television}}, seeking input from experienced television editors and template editors. Suppose a show is co-produced (i.e. funded) by an American company like CW, but it's entirely produced/filmed in Canada. When it airs simultaneously in Canada and the US on different networks and (possibly) different air dates, what's the appropriate protocol for listing the |network=
and |first_aired=
/|last_aired=
values? Should we use |network=
and |network2=
, or would it make more sense to use a plainlist for the multiple networks (considering it's essentially simultaneous, not a reboot or network change)?

This topic has come up previously in the archives, however, it is often related to Co-EP listing on narrative TV shows that often use the credit for writers (who are also listed elsewhere). In documentary TV series, the Co-Executive Producer is most always used to denote the showrunner. Therefore, it seems fair to include that as a separate credit available in the info box. The co-executive producers are more creatively involved and responsible for the series on all levels than producers. The omission therefore overlooks a key role in these types of productions. 2600:4040:912F:B200:99B1:B552:3710:54CE ( talk) 18:16, 13 February 2024 (UTC)
