== Parameters == | |||
===name=== | |||
The title of the song. If not provided, the template uses the {{tl|PAGENAMEBASE}} of the page. Since it is not linked, disambiguation terms, such as {{nowrap|"(song)"}}, {{nowrap|"(Weezer song)"}}, etc., are not needed. | |||
===version=== | |||
The version of the song. This is used for infoboxes on remixes or alternate versions. | |||
===cover=== | |||
Add an image appropriate for the song. First, one must be uploaded. Then, enter the file name (without File:) into the field, such as <code>Weezer_Pinkerton.jpg</code> | |||
===alt=== | |||
Use this field to provide alternative text or a description of the cover image for visually impaired readers. | |||
===caption=== | |||
If there is an image, a suitable caption may be added (begins with a capital letter, no period at end if it is a sentence fragment, etc.) Please note that if the image is ''unambiguously'' a picture sleeve or record label for the release that is described in the infobox, then it is "self-captioning", and no caption needs to be entered in this parameter. | |||
===type=== | |||
Specify "song", "single", "demo", "cover", etc., as shown in the code table below. This field is used to generate the header and color; please note that it is not used for genre, which is described in the {{para|genre}} fields. | |||
If a track from an album was later released as a single, '''use the type to reflect the most notable or best-known release'''. For example, "[[My Name Is Jonas]]" was released as a promotional single in several markets and recognized as a digital single in 2024 by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), but it is best known as a song from [[Weezer (The Blue Album)|Weezer's debut album]]. | |||
{{Infobox song/doc/type}} | |||
===artist=== | |||
If the article associates the original or primary rendition of the song with one artist, enter the name of the artist. For band names that begin with "The", enter the lower case "the" ({{para|artist|the Rentals}}, rather than {{para|artist|The Rentals}}). For traditional or historical songs, when the focus is not on a particular rendition, this should be left blank. | |||
===album=== | |||
If the song was first released on an album, enter the name of the album in this field and include a link. The template will italicize the album name and display "from the album <var>Name</var>" in the header. | |||
===EP=== | |||
If the song was first released on an EP, enter the name of the EP in this field and include a link. The name will be italicized and used in the same way as described in the Album section above. | |||
'''Note''': Only '''one''' of album ''or'' EP should be used, depending on which was released first. | |||
===single=== | |||
If the song was first released as a B-side of a single, enter the name of the single in this field and include a link. The single's name will appear in quotation marks (e.g., from the single "Name"). Set {{para|type|B-side}} accordingly. | |||
'''Note''': Only '''one''' of album, EP, ''or'' single should be used, depending on which was issued first. | |||
===language=== | |||
If the song is '''not''' in English, indicate the language. | |||
===english_title=== | |||
An English translation of the title may be included in this field. | |||
