[edit] Usage

This template is part of a family of templates, and should be used in conjunction with {{Graphic novel list/header}} and {{Graphic novel list/footer}}, like so:

{{Graphic novel list/header
 | parameter = value
}}
{{Graphic novel list
 | parameter = value
}}
{{Graphic novel list/footer}}

[edit] Parameters

Parameter Use
{{Graphic novel list/header}}
All of this template's parameters are optional.
OneLanguage Values: "yes" (case-sensitive)
When this parameter is set to "yes", this template will produce a three-column view, ideal for displaying information when only the original language has a release. Setting this to anything else or omitting it entirely will produce a five-column view, ideal for displaying information about original-language and licensed-language releases.
Language Values: any
This is the language of origin. In three-column views, this defaults to nothing; in five-column views, this defaults to "Original".
SecondLanguage Values: any
This is the licensed language. This displays only in five-column views, where it defaults to "English".
Width Values: an integer number greater than zero or a percentage from 0% to 100%
Determines the width of the table. Defaults to "98%".
LineColor Values: a hex color value of the form "RGB" or "RRGGBB"
To separate the header from the main body of the table, a three-pixel colored border is added to the bottom; this determines the color of the border. Defaults to "CCF".
{{Graphic novel list}}
VolumeNumber Values: any valid HTML ID (A-Z, a-z, 0-9, _, -, :, .), usually numeric
A volume number. This parameter also creates an HTML anchor which can be linked to from other pages, prefixed with "vol"; for example, [[List of chapters#vol01]].
Series
(Optional)
Values: any valid HTML ID
A non-printing parameter which is prefixed to the HTML anchor ID defined by VolumeNumber; for example, if defined as "alt" with a VolumeNumber of "02", the anchor becomes "#altvol02".
OneLanguage Values: "yes" (case-sensitive)
This controls how many columns the template produces, and should match however it was defined in the header.
RelDate
OriginalRelDate
Values: any, usually a date
The release date of the original-language work. Both parameters define the same thing.
LicensedRelDate Values: any, usually a date
The release date of the licensed-language work. This parameter only displays in the five-column view.
ISBN
OriginalISBN
Values: a valid ISBN-10 or ISBN-13 number
The ISBN of the original-language work. This should be only the number; the template prefixes ISBN automatically, to link it with Special:Booksources.
LicensedISBN Values: a valid ISBN-10 or ISBN-13 number
The ISBN of the licensed-language work. As with ISBN/OriginalISBN, this should only be the number. This parameter only displays in the five-column view.
ChapterList
(Optional)
Values: a formatted list of chapters
A list of chapters from the volume.
If VolumeExtras is defined, this will occupy just over half its row; otherwise, it will occupy an entire row.
VolumeExtras
(Optional)
Values: any
Any extra information about a volume, such as the title or a list of cover characters.
If ChapterList is defined, this will occupy just under half its row; otherwise, it will occupy an entire row.
Summary
(Optional)
Values: any
A summary of the volume.
Occupies an entire row.
LineColor
(Optional)
Values: a hex color value of the form "RGB" or "RRGGBB"
In a table containing more than just release information, three-pixel colored borders are added to the bottoms of individual volume releases to separate them; this determines the color of the border. Defaults to "CCF".
{{Graphic novel list/footer}}
This template has no parameters.
