Infobox writer may be used to summarize information about a person who is a writer/author (includes screenwriters).

If the writer-specific fields here are not needed, consider using the more general {{Infobox person}}; other infoboxes there can be found in Category:People and person infobox templates.

This template may also be used as a module (or sub-template) of {{Infobox person}}; see WikiProject Infoboxes/embed for guidance on such usage.

Syntax

The infobox may be added by pasting the template as shown below into an article. All fields are optional. Any unused parameter names can be left blank or omitted.

Parameters

Please remove any parameters from an article's infobox that are unlikely to be used.

All parameters are optional.

Unless otherwise specified, if a parameter has multiple values, they should be comma-separated using the {{Cslist}} template:

|language={{Cslist|French|Spanish|English}}

which produces:

|language=

French
Spanish
English

If any of the individual values contain commas already, add |semi=true to use semi-colons as separators:

|pseudonym={{Cslist|Smith, Bob|DaveyJones|Adams, Fred|semi=true}}

which produces:

|pseudonym=

Smith, Bob
DaveyJones
Adams, Fred

See talk page as mutual consensus could not be achieved on this article. -->

Use as a child template

The embed parameter is used when embedding this infobox into another.

This infobox may be used to create a genre-specific section within {{Infobox person}} (or similar biographical infobox templates) for cases where a person may be notable in more than one field; a generic example is shown below. For guidance on usage, see Wikipedia:Infobox modules. Also see the Template:Infobox documentation which explains embedding and subboxes.

Microformat

The HTML markup produced by this template includes an hCard microformat, which makes the person's details parsable by computers, either acting automatically to catalogue articles across Wikipedia or via a browser tool operated by a reader, to (for example) add the subject to an address book. For more information about the use of microformats on Wikipedia, please see the microformat project.

Date-of-birth ("bday") parameters will only be included in the microformat if {{Birth date}} or {{Birth date and age}} are used in the infobox.

hCard uses HTML classes including:

adr
bday
county-name
fn (required)
honorific-prefix
honorific-suffix
label
locality
nickname
note
org
role
vcard

Please do not rename or remove these classes.
