This is a basic template to use for articles about television series which Sting, Stewart or Andy have made an appearance on. It could be an acting role, a performance, or an interview. You can add header sections as you feel necessary in order to properly illustrate this subject.  
+
This is a very basic template to use for articles about specific performance dates. Please make sure to fill in all CAPITALIZED TEXT that you can with the appropriate info (ex: replace BAND NAME with [[The Police]], [[Oysterhead]], etc); if you don't know then please mark it '''unknown''' so that someone else can fill it in later, do not delete the specific table section.
 +
 
 +
The article should be named following our standard calendar format. (Ex: "YYYY-MM-DD") If more than one event has taken place on that date, name the article "YYYY-MM-DD (Artist/band name performance)" and make sure there is a disambiguation page in place at the appropriate "YYYY-MM-DD" location.

at the bottom of the template with the appropriate category, for instance [[:Category:2008]] for a performance which took place in 2008.
