[edit] Parameters

Parameter Description
collapsed Include this parameter with the value yes (collapsed = yes) to have the track listing table start out collapsed. Useful for very long lists and/or pages with several lists. This parameter only takes effect in JavaScript-enabled browsers.
headline An optional headline, to denote sides/disc numbers of an LP or in case of some works, special groups or cycles of songs (i.e. Side A, Disc three, etc.). The default font-weight of the headline is bold. The {{nobold}} template can be used to have part or all of the headline appear in the normal font-weight.
total_length Used to display the total length of the record at the bottom of the list. Not necessary in most cases (as that information will usually be covered by an infobox), but useful in some (i.e. releases with a lot of individual discs).
all_writing
all_lyrics
all_music
Used to display general songwriting credits for the entire record in a note above the track listing. If all_writing is supplied, the other two parameters are ignored.
writing_credits
lyrics_credits
music_credits
Include these parameters with the value yes (i.e. writing_credits = yes) to turn on various columns that include track-specific credits for songwriting in general, or lyrics and music respectively. Use the first mutually exclusive with the latter two and avoid redundancy with help of the parameters beginning with all_ (see above). By default, each of these columns is deactivated.
titlen (i.e. title1, title2, etc.) The title of the respective track. Note that a track listing does not have to start with a #1 (i.e. for having Side B of an LP start at track six or leaving out empty tracks preceding a bonus track). Track names are automatically put into quotes.
noten (i.e. note1, note2, etc.) An optional note to be displayed in brackets behind the title. Useful for original titles in other languages/scripts (i.e. kanji) or to denote bonus tracks only included in certain editions.
lengthn (i.e. length1, length2, etc.) The length of the track in a m:ss formatting (or mm:ss if particularly long tracks occur). For example: 4:35
writern
lyricsn
musicn
Use to denote the writer(s) of the track in general or of the lyrics and/or music individually. Remember to turn on the desired columns with the parameters ending with _credits (see above) and avoid redundancy where possible.
