[edit] Documentation

This template generates links to artist discographies at rolldabeats.com.

[edit] Usage

Code:

{{rolldabeats artist | artist = urlcode | name = {{subst:PAGENAME}} }}

Placement:

  • This template is an external links template and should be placed in the "External links" section of a musical artist's page.

[edit] Instructions

  1. Find the appropriate artist at rolldabeats.com.
  2. The page URL should look like http://www.rolldabeats.com/artist/xxxxx, where "xxxxx" indicates the artist's name.
  3. Copy ONLY the name (be sure that you didn't copy the / right before it)
  4. Add to the external links section the text:
{{rolldabeats artist | artist = xxxxx | name = yyyyy }}
Where "xxxxx" is the name you've copied and "yyyyy" is the name you would like to display.

[edit] Example

  1. Search for "Dom & Roland" on rolldabeats.com, and you will reach this page: http://www.rolldabeats.com/artist/dom_and_roland
  2. Copy "dom_and_roland" and then write:
{{rolldabeats artist | artist = dom_and_roland | name = Dom & Roland}}

The result is:

Dom & Roland at rolldabeats

Note that, since this will almost certainly go on the external link section, you should add a * before the template text to include it as a list item.

I started this template by copying Template:Discogs artist by The Archivist pretty much verbatim. heqs 11:52, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
