  • Cartoon Name: The official title of the film, as spelled onscreen or in official production documents.
  • Series: The short film series to which the short belongs. For blanket series such as Looney Tunes and Terrytoons, notate the starring character(s) of the short alongside the series title, for example Terrytoons (Mighty Mouse) series instead of just Terrytoons series. This field is optional.
  • Image and Caption: All you need for the image code is the name of the image file without the "Image:" at the front. Each image is automatically formatted to a maximum width of 230 pixels. The image for the infobox should be a poster, the main title card (if it has artwork depicting the characters), or a clear screenshot of the characters. The caption should identify the characters depicted, and explain where the image came from. These fields are optional.
  • The credits for Director(s), Story(board) artist(s), Animator(s), Layout artist(s), Background artist(s), Narrator, Voice actor(s), Musician(s), and Producer(s) should identify the persons credited onscreen, as well as others who were not credited. Cast and crew should ideally be credited as they were in the original onscreen titles (for example, Charles M. Jones instead of Chuck Jones for most of his films). Voice actors and musicians are optional fields.
  • Studio: The animation studio/company who made the film, if it is not the same as the distributor. For example, all "Warner Bros." cartoons released before 1944 were produced by Leon Schlesinger Productions. This field is optional.
  • Distributor: The company who released the film.
  • Release date: The release date for each country, followed by the country name in parenthesis: February 15, 1991 (USA)
  • Color process: Type of film stock used to make the film. For most cartoons, this should be filled only with one of the following choices: black and white, Sepia tone, Technicolor, Technicolor (two-color), Cinecolor, Polacolor, or Metrocolor. For more modern (post-1970) cartoons, "Color" will suffice.
  • Runtime: The running time of the cartoon, rounded to the nearest minute.
  • preceded_by: If the film is part of a series, insert the film that preceded it in the series.
  • followed_by: If the film is part of a series, insert the film that followed it in the series.
  • Movie language: The language spoken in the film. If it is a silent film, type "Silent".
  • IMDb ID: the numeric portion of the film's IMDb url.
