Template talk:Single entry
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This template is still experimental, so feel free to use it, but it can evolve through time and it is not official in any way.
The reason for creating the box was that a user was asked to move some singles to the album, but the infobox single is not suitable in that case because of the next and previous singles and it takes up too much space. So this is an attempt to try to structure the information on the album page.
[edit] Usage
Multiple instances of this template can be used within a table to provide an overview of all the singles on an album without having to make seperate pages on each one of them.
First you build a simple table which only consists of an open and a close tag.
{| class="wikitable"
Single entry 1
Single entry 2 etc.
|}
Each single entry is structured as follows:
{{Single entry
| Name = Title
| [ Cover = Cover illustration ]
| Released = Release date
| [ Writer = Writers ]
| Producer = Producer
| [ Director = Director ]
| Info =
Short story about the single
| Chart position = Chart stuff
| Tracklist = <nowiki>
# track1
# track2 ...
}}
</nowiki>
[edit] Example
An album with 4 singles and the album which got this template started.

| "Milkshake" | |||||||||
|
"Milkshake" was the first single released from Kelis which made a large impact on the US charts and managed to secure a #3 position in the Billboard Hot 100.
The song made quite a commotion for the line, "My milkshake brings all the boys to the yard," and the vaguely sexual connotations thereof. |
