+== Creating Episode Articles ==
+Don't just copy and paste the contents of another episode's article and then make tweaks.  You made several mistakes, so I had to rebuild [[DP088]] using [[Template:DP episode]], a template which should have been used to create the article in the first place.  Next time, remember to use [[Template:DP episode]] when creating an episode article.  If you don't know how to use it, here's a lowdown:
+:#This field denotes the number of the episode in question.  At present, only two digits; this will change starting with [[DP100]].  For example, for the [[DP089]] article, the field should read '''89'''.
+:#This field denotes the announced Japanese broadcast date.  For example, if [[DP089]] were announced for one week after [[DP088]], this field would read '''August 14, 2008'''.  (Note that this is in no way indicitave of DP089's actual Japanese airdate.)
+:#This field denotes the number of the previous episode.  At present, only two digits; this will change starting with [[DP101]].  For example, for the [[DP089]] article, the field should read '''88'''.
+:#This field denotes the number of the next episode.  At present, only two digits; this will change starting with [[DP099]].  For example, for the [[DP089]] article, the field should read '''90'''.
+:#This field denotes the raw episode name in kanji.
+:#This field denotes the translated episode name in Roman characters.  For example, if [[DP089]]'s Japanese title were to translate as "[[Dawn's Piplup|{{tt|Pottaishi|Prinplup}}]] VS [[Kenny's Prinplup|{{tt|Pottaishi|Prinplup}}]]!  Fresh Evolution Battle", that translation would make up field 6 with its raw kanji as field 5.  (Note that this is in no way indicitave to any actual DP089 plot.)
+The template may be daunting to those unfamiliar with it, but it should grow on you after a few uses.  --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 18:53, 10 July 2008 (UTC)
