Template:Extra track listing/doc

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A listing of the songs on an album or EP is usually done using the |tracks= field of {{Infobox song}}; for details, please see the infobox track listing examples. However, if the infobox |chronology= prevents its use, this template should be used instead to add a track listing.

Please note: track listings should not be added to infoboxes if there is a navigation template or navbox at the bottom of the article which already lists the songs.

Code

[edit]

This template is used with the |misc= parameter of the infobox template. It should not be used on its own. If this template is substituted, it will return a cleaned-up copy of itself with unnecessary parameters removed and deprecated parameters replaced. Parameter indentation will also automatically be fixed.

That Album track listing

{{Infobox song
...
| misc        = {{Extra track listing
 | album      = 
 | type       = 
 | tracks     = (tracks here)
 }}
