Module:Television episode short description

Lua error in Module:Lua_banner at line 113: attempt to index field 'edit' (a nil value). Script error: No such module "High-use".
Module:Television episode short description extracts data from a television episode article's Template:Infobox television episode and creates a relevant short description based on the data available.
This module implements the {{Television episode short description}} template.
Usage

{{#invoke:Television episode short description|getShortDescription}}
Parameter list

<section begin=Parameters/> The parameter names use a corresponding parameter from Template:Infobox television episode to fill in the data. They are listed below.
Parameter	Corresponding infobox parameter	Description
`series_name`	`series`	The TV series name.
`episode_num`	`episode`	The episode's number.
`season_num`	`season`	The season's number.
`season_num_uk`	`series_no`	The season's number if using the British "series" term.
`not_dab`	same name	Set if the TV series name has parentheses as part of its name.
`special`	same name	Setting to "yes" will set the description as a "special episode". Any other value will replace the word "special" with the one entered. For example `\|special=recap` will set the text to "recap episode".
`limited`	same name	Set if the series is a single season series, such as miniseries or limited series and does not need a season number as part of the description.
