The new Airdate template <s>still needs to be populated for most shows. it</s> looks like:  
[https://jfwiki.org/index.php?title=The_Joe_Frank_Music_Page&oldid=14904 JF Music Page Mar 8 2021]
<pre>{{Airdate|airdate=1979-01-26}}
or
{{Airdate|airdate=1979}} when we only have the year
or
{{Airdate|airdate=1979-10}} when we only have the year & month
This Airdate will be displayed in the parentheses to the right of the show title.
</pre>
 
The list is sorted by a new [[:Category:Show_by_date|Category: Show_by_date]], which looks like this:
<pre>[[Category:Show_by_date|19790126]]</pre>
 
For sorting shows where we only have broadcast years I will use the month 00 and the day number will be the sequence we want them to appear in, reflecting Richard's FAQ.
 
so:<br>
Middle Of Nowhere Part 1 Show_by_date= 1987'''00'''04<br>
Middle Of Nowhere Part 2 Show_by_date= 1987'''00'''05<br>
Middle Of Nowhere Part 3 Show_by_date= 1987'''00'''06<br>
 
Will present them in order, in 1987
 
For those few shows that we know year and month but not day I will use year-month-00, with 00 for the day.<br>
So: Summer Pledge Drive 1987 Show_by_date = 198708'''00'''
 
This will allow us to sort using the Show_by_date category without putting actual incorrect dates in for shows. Where ever we don't know the exact date, either the day or month will be 00.
 
A smarter man would do a regex search-and-replace on the Show_by_date to create the needed Airdate code, but I am going to enter them manually so as to not blow anything up.
 
The Dynamic Page List module is finicky, so I had to remove all trailing spaces from the wikicode, ie
<pre> {{Sex (The Necks) }}
 
has to be :
{{Sex (The Necks)}}
</pre>
 
html comments on their own line and extra CRs at the end of the == Music == section also effect how it displays here.
 
<s>Additional work to be done includes hiding the footnotes and Category listing at the bottom of the mobile page.
 
Trying to figure out if I can do this without the dynamic music page ending up in every category.</s>

"The Dawn" was recorded in the early 90's
Per one of the producers, [https://twitter.com/oldcut Jonathon More], when asked if it was from an earlier recording:
"Ha Thanks 🙏 yes. I found the old vocal samples but pretty sure everything else was programmed by Paul & us then PC (Patrick Carpenter) mixed it. Though it does sound a bit like an obscure new age 80’s synth track so could see why it would cause confusion. Peace Jon."
