Template:Extra music sample/doc

This template is for adding a music sample within {{Infobox song}} or {{Infobox single}}.

Please think carefully—and test—before changing it, and make sure you explain the change in your edit summary. Any unexplained changes may be reverted.

Usage

{{Extra music sample
| type           = single
| filename       = The_Beatles_-_Ticket_to_Ride.ogg
| title          = "Ticket to Ride"
| description    = 
}}

• type should be "song" for songs and "single" for singles (without the quotes).
• filename is the name of the audio file.
• title is the name of the song.
• description should probably be left blank in this context; otherwise, provide a brief description specific to the sample such as the duration.

Note: This template must be wrapped in an infobox; it does not provide the outer table markup and relies on a table being open when used. See "Circle of Life" for an example.

Microformat

The HTML mark-up produced by this template includes an hAudio microformat that makes an audio recording's details readily parsable by computer programs. This aids tasks such as the cataloguing of articles and maintenance of databases. For more information about the use of microformats on Wikipedia, please visit the Microformat WikiProject on English Wikipedia.

Subtemplates

Date-of-publication ("published") information will only be included in the microformat if {{start date}} (or, where appropriate, {{start date and age}}) is used in a parent infobox/template. Do not, however, use {{start date}} or {{start date and age}} if a date before 1583 CE is involved.

Use {{duration}} to specify the duration/length of a recording. For instance, if the recording's duration is 3 minutes 45 seconds, use {{duration|m=3|s=45}} (which appears as: 3:45). If needed, |h= may be included to specify a number of hours.

Please do not remove instances of these subtemplates.
