Couple questions

First off, let me say that this template is a good idea. I was looking at the code, and I have a couple questions. How come all of the seasons use #rel2abs instead of just {{{1}}}}? And also, couldn't you just put in 'Two' instead of '{{Season Number|2}}'? -Joltman 09:17, 12 May 2008 (EDT)

I used #rel2abs because there are cases where we've moved the main show page but not the subpages but all season pages are always on the same path. I used the Season Number template more for my own benefit while making the template because it was a lot easier to copy, paste and change just the one digit instead of typing a different word out three times for each iteration. --The-jam 10:33, 12 May 2008 (EDT)
Are there that many times when we moved the main page and not the subpages? I figured we were supposed to be consistent, and either leave the main page or move all of the related pages. -Joltman 11:28, 12 May 2008 (EDT)
I don't think there are that many cases but it was more of a just in case thing because the template will show up really broken if they don't match up. I just made it so the template doesn't even require input for most shows but it has an option for a second variable to change the main show page name which probably won't ever be needed. --The-jam 12:42, 12 May 2008 (EDT)
