Template:Show/doc

Since correct operation of the template depends upon getting the story name precisely correct, however, you are better off using the dab terms. Every television story's "proper" title has an appended (TV story), which means you will always be correct to use that form of the name. But you will not always be right dropping the dab term. For instance you must use 42 (TV story) since 42 doesn't exist, and you must use The Five Doctors (TV story) since The Five Doctors is actually a page about an in-universe video game.

Equally, you must be sure that the property name is precisely correct. So you'll want to consult Special:Properties for a full list.
