Parameters
[සංස්කරණය]- Most fields are optional and the row will simply be omitted if no data is supplied.
- See WikiProject Musicians for more information about this template.
name
[සංස්කරණය]The name of the group or artist ("the act") in plain text only. Logos and other graphics are to be avoided in this field in accordance with WP:ACCESS, WP:FAIR, and in particular WP:LOGO. This field is mandatory.
image
[සංස්කරණය]An image of the act, sufficiently clear for display at 220 pixels' width. Set to only the image name, e.g. Example.png, not Image:Example.png or [[File:Example.png|200px|abc]].
alt
[සංස්කරණය]Alt text for the image, for visually impaired and other readers who cannot see the image. See WP:ALT.
caption
[සංස්කරණය]Caption for the image to be displayed.
image_size
[සංස්කරණය]The image size should only be specified if the image is smaller than 220 pixels width. Enter the width in pixels without "px", for example 150. Size for landscape images should be 250.
landscape
[සංස්කරණය]Set to yes when using wide, short images. The image height (rather than width) will be limited to 200 pixels.
background
[සංස්කරණය]The musical artist should be placed into one of seven categories by using one of the codes below in the background field. Each category is color-coded to provide a quick indication of the type of group/performer, e.g. solo artist, orchestra, etc. The color scheme is similar to the one used by WikiProject Albums and other projects. Please discuss additional types that need to be accounted for on the template's talk page. This field is mandatory.
| Code | Display | |
|---|---|---|
| solo_singer |
|
|
| non_vocal_instrumentalist |
|
|
| non_performing_personnel |
|
|
| group_or_band |
|
|
| classical_ensemble |
|
|
| temporary |
|
solo_singer- Singular vocal performers (including lead and background singers, singer-songwriters, and singer-instrumentalists). This categorization is for any article about a singer, whether they perform solo, with a group or band, or both.
non_vocal_instrumentalist- Non-vocal instrumentalists.
non_performing_personnel- Non-classical composers, producers, songwriters, arrangers, DJs, engineers, and other non-performing personnel.
group_or_band- Groups, bands, crews, or other non-classical music ensembles. This categorization is for articles on group acts only; members of groups should be labeled with one of the codes above.
classical_ensemble- Orchestras and other classical music ensembles.
temporary- Temporary collaborative projects.
Other values (e.g. "jazz trumpeter") must not be used.
Pages with invalid value in |background= can be found in Category:Infobox musical artist with missing or invalid Background field.
birth_name
[සංස්කරණය]This field is only relevant for individuals. The artist's name at birth.
alias
[සංස්කරණය]For listing official stage names for the act or solo artist other than the name in the |name= parameter. Also for the solo artist's legal name(s), or other officially authorized names that differ from their birth name. This field is not for nicknames such as "The Godfather of Soul" (James Brown) or "Nippy" (Whitney Houston), which are not the artists' official names.
birth_date
[සංස්කරණය]This field is only relevant for individuals.
The artist's date of birth; it is preferable to use {{Birth date and age}} (for example {{Birth date and age|1949|12|31}}) to display current age. For dead people, use {{Birth date}} (for example {{Birth date|1949|12|31}}. Also list the place of birth using the birth_place parameter, if it differs from the artist's hometown (see field "origin" below). Omit the country if it does not differ from that specified at the field "origin".
{{Birth date and age|Year|Month|Day}}
birth_place
[සංස්කරණය]This field is only relevant for individuals. The artist's place of birth.
[[City]], State/Province, Country
origin
[සංස්කරණය]The city from which the singer or group originated (that is, the city where the group was founded; or the city where individual performers started their career, should it not match the location of their birth). If the city is not known, specify at least the country. Note: as for "Born" and "Died", there is no need to additionally place a {{Flagicon}} to represent the nationality.
[[City]], [[State/Province]], [[Country]]
death_date
[සංස්කරණය]This field is only relevant for individuals. The artist's date of death (same format as birth_date; but use {{Death date and age}}).
death_place
[සංස්කරණය]This field is only relevant for individuals. The artist's place of death (same format as birth_place).
genre
[සංස්කරණය]The genre or genres of music performed by the act. Aim for generality (e.g. [[Hip hop music|Hip hop]] rather than [[East Coast hip hop]]). Genres should be separated with a comma delimiter. Genres should be wikilinked. Use piped links where needed, for example: [[Pop music|Pop]], [[Rock music|rock]]. Note: most genres are not proper nouns and should not be capitalized. However, the first word in a list of multiple genres should be capitalized.
occupation
[සංස්කරණය]This field is only relevant for individuals. Roles the artist has fulfilled (e.g. musician, songwriter, producer, etc). For artists that have participated in other forms of entertainment, outside of music (such as acting), these occupations can be included if notable.
instrument
[සංස්කරණය]This field is only relevant for individuals.
General class(es) of instrument(s) played by the artist, e.g. guitar or violin. Include singing, rapping, beatboxing and/or scat singing if relevant. Separate multiple entries with commas.
years_active
[සංස්කරණය]Period(s) during which the act was or has been active. Only calendar year ranges or a single calendar year should be listed; for example, do not distinguish between the period Paul McCartney was in The Beatles and his solo career. Use commas to separate non-consecutive periods, and denote ranges with an unspaced en dash (e.g. 1993–2004, 2005–present). See WP:DATE#Longer periods and WP:MOS#En dashes. For groups only use {{Start date}}.
label
[සංස්කරණය]The record label or labels to which the act has been signed, as a comma-separated list. Omit parenthetical dates; save that information for the main article. Drop the word "Records" from the end of any label's name (e.g. use [[Universal Records|Universal]] rather than [[Universal Records]].) Separate multiple entries with commas.
associated_acts
[සංස්කරණය]This field is for professional relationships with other musicians or bands that are significant and notable to this artist's career.
This field can include, for example, any of the following:
- For individuals: groups of which he or she has been a member
- Other acts with which this act has collaborated on multiple occasions, or on an album, or toured with as a single collaboration act playing together
- Groups which have spun off from this group
- A group from which this group has spun off
Separate multiple entries with commas.
The following uses of this field should be avoided:
- Association of groups with members' solo careers
- Groups with only one member in common
- Association of producers, managers, etc. (who are themselves acts) with other acts (unless the act essentially belongs to the producer, as in the case of a studio orchestra formed by and working exclusively with a producer)
- One-time collaboration for a single, or on a single song
- Groups that are merely similar
website
[සංස්කරණය]The single web address for the act's primary official website. Use {{URL}} as {{URL|example.com}}.
current_members
[සංස්කරණය]This field is only relevant for active groups.
Current members of the group, listed in order of joining with no other notation than names. Separate multiple entries with <br />.
past_members
[සංස්කරණය]This field is only relevant for groups.
Past members of the group, listed in order of joining with no other notation than names. If a group is inactive, all members should be listed here, and none in the "current_members" field. If membership of the group has varied over time, it should not be noted here, but may be discussed in the article body. Separate multiple entries with <br />.
notable_instruments
[සංස්කරණය]This field is only relevant for individuals. Particularly noteworthy models or custom musical instruments with which the artist is strongly associated (e.g. Jimi Hendrix's Fender Stratocaster and Gibson Flying V guitars or Tori Amos's Bösendorfer piano). Separate multiple entries with commas.
