Module:Infobox television disambiguation check is used to validate the disambiguation of a page using {{Infobox television}}.
What it does
editThe module preforms two checks:
- It checks by a series of validations if one of the accepted WP:NCTV disambiguation styles appears in the parenthesis. If it is incorrect, it places the page in Category:Television articles with incorrect naming style. Validations currently supported:
- Validates the format used is one of the accepted values.
- Validates the country adjective used is correct.
- Validates the year is using 4 digits.
- Validates that the style is ordered as <year> <country adjective> <format>.
- It checks if a page is using "(film series)", "(franchise)", "(radio)", "(season #)", "(series #)" or "(TV programming block)" as disambiguation, but uses {{Infobox television}} instead of {{Infobox media franchise}}, {{Infobox radio show}}, {{Infobox television season}} or {{Infobox programming block}}}. If so, it places the page in Category:Television articles using incorrect infobox.
