Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

This template is designed to be used for articles about European comic publications or individual strips which run in those publications. The European tradition is slightly different to the American tradition, and the term comic strip is variously applied to both a strip in a newspaper and a strip in a serialised anthology such as Metal Hurlant. For American comic books, it is more appropriate to use {{Infobox comic book title}}.

Parameter notes

Common elements

Most of the parameters are designed only to show in the infobox if something is entered. They can be left in the template and empty if the item does not pertain to the article or if the information is not known at the time the template is added.
The name field is an exception. If left empty the infobox will not generate a name.
For multiple items in one field, separate each with <br />.
Example: creators=Don Rosa<br />Carl Barks
Placing images in the infobox uses three fields:
- image which is just the filename of the image. The template will add the markup to show the image.
  Example: image= example.jpg
- imagesize which is the width the image will display at. The template will only accept a number here. If left empty or if a string (such as "225px") is entered, the image will default to 250px wide.
  - If you find the image to be too tall, reduce the size below 250px.
  - The parameter is capped at maximum width of 250. Entering values grater than this will result in the default setting being used.
  - The image will also cap at 450 in height.
The caption will appear below the image. Keep it short, but indicate the original source published source of the image and the artist(s).
Example: A comic cover would be captioned as "Original cover of Guardians of the Lost Library. Art by Don Rosa"
