• filename and format have the same meaning and use as on the {{listen}} template.
• title is the name of the song.
• artist is the name of the performer, band, etc.; should probably be omitted in most cases (infoboxes already contain the performer's name); if supplied itt can be wikilinked
• description has the same meaning and use as on the {{listen}} template; should probably be left blank in this context; otherwise, provide a brief description specific to the sample such as the duration.

Note: {{Extra musicsample}} must be wrapped in an Infobox; it does not provide the table markup and relies on a table being open when used. See Ticket to Ride for an example.
