Fields
editWhen using the template, it is not necessary to delete any fields that are not being used. Most fields are optional; if no data is supplied, the row will simply not appear once the page is saved.
Artist
editThe name of the group or artist ("the act") in plain text only. Logos and other graphics are to be avoided in this field in accordance with WP:ACCESS and WP:FAIR. Use an internal link or piped internal link to the main article about the artist. For help with internal links, see the Editing FAQ. This field is mandatory.
Image
editAn image of the act, sufficiently clear for display at 200 pixels' width. Set to only the image name, e.g. Example.png, not Image:Example.png or [[Image:Example.png|200px|abc]]. Images used should ideally be free images; that is, not subject to copyright restrictions. If no free image is available it may be possible to use a non-free image under a claim of fair use, provided the image meets Wikipedia's non-free content criteria (for more information see WP:NFCC and WP:NFC).
Alt
editAlt text for the image, as per WP:ALT. This is for describing the image to people who cannot see the image, and typically should not be the same as the caption.
Caption
editCaption for the image to be displayed. Do not link years in the caption e.g. do not link [[2007]].
Types of releases
editThere are individual fields for the various types of releases (film, drama, theater, variety series, variety non-series, music videos, etc.). In each field place the number of each type that the artist has released. Use only numeric values in these fields. For other types of releases, see "Advanced usage" below.
Advanced usage
editImage size
editThe image is set to be 250px wide by default. If this needs to be adjusted, use the |Image size=
parameter, which should be less than 250px. To set the image to its automatic size, set it to auto
.
Modifying section links
editIf the discography doesn't use the titles as used in this template, you may modify the destination links (which appear as the diagonal arrow ↙ in the template) by using the following parameters to link from the infobox to the appropriate section. Unless your section is named exactly as used in this infobox, it will not map to the correct part of the page or will only link to the top of the discography page.
