Podcast Episode

Template for documenting podcast episodes. Sets the semantic properties that Template:Firehose queries, so an episode recorded here shows up in every firehose that matches it — the show's page, a guest's page, the front page.

Usage

{{PodcastEpisode
|podcast=Bluegrass Jam Along
|title=Episode Title
|guest=Guest Name
|guest2=Second Guest
|date=2025-01-15
|url=https://example.com/episode
|audio=https://example.com/episode.mp3
|duration=3720
|description=Brief description of the episode
}}

Parameters

  • podcast - Name of the podcast. Must match the podcast's page title.
  • title - Episode title
  • guest through guest5 - Guest name(s). Give the guest's wiki page title where one exists; a name with no page becomes a redlink, which is the invitation to write it.
  • date - Publication date (YYYY-MM-DD)
  • url - The publisher's page for the episode
  • audio - Direct audio file, from the feed's RSS enclosure
  • duration - Running time in seconds. Feeds publish this inconsistently; normalise before storing.
  • description - Episode description or summary

Notes

Guests and the podcast are stored with page-valued properties, so [[Has guest::Name]] both renders the link and records the annotation. There is no need to write the link separately.
