The current album should always be in [[WP:MOSBOLD#Boldface|boldface]]. All album titles should be italicized. The year of release of the albums should be listed in parentheses, separated from the album title by <code><nowiki><br /></nowiki></code> or <code><nowiki><br></nowiki></code>. Wikipedia's [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style (dates and numbers)#Date formatting|date style guidelines]] recommend that years should not be linked within the chronology section. Cover images should not be included in the chronology, as that would not be [[Wikipedia:Non-free content|fair use]]. For first albums the left box should be left blank. For latest albums the right box should be left blank. At least one of the two fields, previous or next, must have a value filled in, for the chronology to display.

No more than one album should be included in any of the three slots in the chronology. Additional chronologies may be used if necessary (see [[#Template:Extra chronology 2|below]]). Albums released on the same day should be listed separately, ordered using the standard ordering of those albums, or alphabetically if no such standard exists.

A number of templates exist that can be inserted in the '''Misc''' field, including {{tl|Extra album cover}}, {{tl|Extra chronology 2}}, {{tl|Singles}} and {{tl|Audiosample}}. If you use any of these templates, don't forget to add a second set of closing brackets for the nested template.

Additional chronologies are generally useful for [[split album]]s, collaborative albums, and series of albums. For multiple extra chronologies, use Template:Second extra chronology.

The '''Artist''' field should be the artist that this additional chronology reflects, for example one of the artists on a split album. The '''Type''' field should contain the same type as the rest of the infobox. The format of the other fields is the same as the standard chronology (see [[#Chronology|above]]).

The '''header''' field allows an optional header to be inserted and '''caption''' allows for an optional explanatory label. For alternate covers the upper caption should be "Alternate cover" and the lower caption should mention where that cover was used (int'l release, re-release, censored original, etc.). As with the <nowiki>{{Extra chronology 2}}</nowiki> template, the '''type''' field should usually contain the same type as the rest of the infobox.
