This template is adapted from the infobox for albums, the {{Infobox Album}} template. Please see that template's documentation for details as indicated below.
The standard infobox for discographies is the {{Infobox Discography}} template. The table below is an example. You can click on "edit this page" and copy-and-paste the markup to a different article, replacing its information with info on the discography you choose to write about.
The template may be used anywhere in an article.

Code
[edit]Most albums should not need the "from Album", "Writer", "Tracks" fields which are included for EPs and Singles where there are traditionally fewer songs on the album. Do not remove unnecessary parameters; they may be used later on and should be left blank instead. Please note that the field names are case-sensitive:
{{Discography
| Type =
| Name =
| Cover =
| Released =
| Label =
| Producer =

| Chart position=

| from Album = <!-- For use with Singles --->
| Writer = <!-- For use with Singles --->
| Tracks = <!-- For use with Singles --->
| Other info =
}}
Type and color
[edit]The type refers to the general type of album. Enter a code from the following chart. The type will appear with the appropriate color and Wikilink. If the type is unknown, leave the field blank. The small amount of color does not stand out on its own but when grouped together as shown in the example above, it gives a subtle indication of the type of the albums as a group.
