Parameters

Link people only if they have articles. For most of the fields below, if there are multiple entries, separate them using {{tl|Plainlist}} or {{tl|Unbulleted list}}. When adding data to fields, do not use small text as this reduces the size of the text to below 85% of the page font size. See Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Accessibility#Text for more information.

class="wikitable"

|+ Infobox television parameters and basic guidelines

! scope="col" | Parameter

! scope="col" | Explanation

! scope="row" | italic_title

| A "no" value will disable the automatic italicization of the article's name. This parameter should not be used most of the time.

scope="row" | name

| The name of the television program, film or miniseries, defaults to the page name. Need not be used if the name is the same as the article title as the infobox handles this automatically. If set, use the full name and do not wikilink it.

scope="row" | image

| A suitable image relevant to the show. The image does not need to be wikilinked and should exclude "File:" e.g. Example.png Typically the image will be the series' title card, although this is not mandated. Free content should be used where available.

scope="row" | image_size

| Width of the image in pixels, excluding "px". If not specified the image width defaults to the value explained in {{para|image_upright}}. The size should not be set greater than 300px.

scope="row" | image_upright

| Use of this parameter is preferred to using {{para|image_size}}, as it allows auto-sizing of images according to user preferences. The size should not be set to a value that would result in an image width greater than 300px. See help below for guidance on determining the value to be used. Parameter defaults to 1.

scope="row" | image_alt

| Alt text, as required by MOS:ALT. It may include wikilinks.

scope="row" | caption

| A caption explaining the image. An image of the title card including the title logo, or the logo only, of the show does not need a caption.

scope="row" | alt_name

| An alternative name by which the television program is known.

scope="row" | native_name

| Insert the native title using the {{tl|Infobox name module}} template if it is different from the displayed title; please visit that template's page for full instructions. This parameter is for the native title only, i.e. it should not be used to add translated titles to the infobox. Example: {{nowrap|{{Infobox name module|ta|பாசமலர்}}}} will display the Tamil native name in the infobox – "ta" is the ISO 639 code for Tamil.

scope="row" | genre

| The genre of the show. Examples listed at Film and television genres. Link if an article is available. Genres must be reliably sourced.

scope="row" | creator

| The show's creator or creators. This should be used over {{para|developer}} if the show is based on original material i.e. Lost or Law & Order, unless a reliable source attributes a person with the title "creator".

scope="row" | based_on

| Insert the title of the source material and the name(s) of the source material writer(s). Use {{tl|based on}} or similar formatting where possible. Use this field if a series is based on previously produced or published material, such as films, books, plays, articles, old screenplays etc, and is explicitly credited as such. Do not use this field where the source material is ambiguous or cannot be reliably sourced. If a work was inspired by another, use {{para|inspired_by}}.

scope="row" | inspired_by

| Insert the title of the source material that inspired the series and the name(s) of the source material's writer(s). Use {{tl|based on}} or similar formatting where possible. Use this field if a series is inspired by previously produced or published material, such as films, books, plays, articles, old screenplays etc, and is explicitly credited as such. Do not use this field where the source material is ambiguous or cannot be reliably sourced. If a work was based on another, use {{para|based_on}}.

scope="row" | developer

| The show's developer or developers. This should be used over {{para|creator}} if the show is based on non-original material i.e. The Walking Dead or Smallville, unless a reliable source attributes a person with the title {{para|developer}}.

scope="row" | showrunner

| The show's showrunner or showrunners. Only to be used when a reliable source can verify that this position is used on a particular series.

scope="row" | writer

| The show's writer or writers. Do not use if the show has many (5+) writers.

scope="row" | {{Unbulleted list|screenplay|teleplay}}

| Used for television films. Insert the name(s) of the screenplay writer(s). Use this field instead of the normal writer field if films divide writing credits between screenplay and story writers. In addition, link each writer to their appropriate article if possible. If "Teleplay by" credit is used, use {{para|teleplay}}.

scope="row" | story

| Used for television films. Insert the name(s) of the story writer(s). Use this field instead of the normal writer field if films divide writing credits between screenplay and story writers. In addition, link each writer to their appropriate article if possible.

scope="row" | director

| The show's director.

scope="row" | creative_director

| The show's creative director.

scope="row" | {{Unbulleted list|presenter}}

| The show's presenters or hosts. Presenters are listed in original credit order followed by order in which new presenters joined the show. Years or seasons should not be included.

scope="row" | starring

| The show's starring cast. Cast are listed in original credit order followed by order in which new cast joined the show. Character names, years, or seasons should not be included.

scope="row" | judges

| If the show involves judges, list them here. Judges are listed in original credit order followed by order in which new judges joined the show. Years or seasons should not be included.

scope="row" | voices

| Any voice artists used in the show. Cast are listed in original credit order followed by order in which new cast joined the show. Character names, years, or seasons should not be included.

scope="row" | theme_music_composer

| The name of the composer of the show's theme music. For non-theme music composer, use {{para|composer}}.

scope="row" | music

| The name of the composer of the show's music. For the theme music composer, use {{para|theme_music_composer}}. Do not use if {{para|theme_music_composer}} is set; use {{para|composer}} instead.

scope="row" | open_theme

| The name of the opening theme for the show.

scope="row" | end_theme

| The name of the ending theme for the show.

scope="row" | composer

| The principal composer or composers providing incidental music for the show's episodes.

scope="row" | country

| The show's country of origin. Do not use flag icons, as this places an unnecessary emphasis on nationality – see MOS:INFOBOXFLAG for a detailed rationale. Do not link major countries, e.g., [[United States]], per WP:OVERLINK.

scope="row" | language

| The original language or languages of the show. Do not link major languages, e.g., [[English language|English]], per WP:OVERLINK.

scope="row" | {{Unbulleted list|num_seasons|num_series}}

| The number of seasons (US) or series (UK) produced. Use one or the other, not both. The parameter should only be incremented once the first episode of that season or series has aired, or if a reliable source confirms production has commenced. An inline citation is required if the total number of seasons produced is greater than the number aired.

scope="row" | {{Unbulleted list|num_episodes|num_specials}}

| The number of episodes or specials released. This parameter should only be incremented when new episodes or specials air. An inline citation is required if the total number of episodes produced is greater than the number aired, such as in the case of a show being cancelled.

scope="row" | list_episodes

| If a Wikipedia "List of" article exists for the show's episodes, put its {{strong|name}} here.

  • Do not use a link (i.e. do not include )
  • Do not enter the {{strong|number}} of episodes here, use {{para|num_episodes}} for that
  • Do not link to sections in the article (i.e. do not use #Episodes) per MOS:INFOBOXPURPOSE

! scope="col" colspan="2" style="text-align: center;" | Production-specific

scope="row" | executive_producer

| The executive producer(s) of the show. This should not be used for writers on the series' writing staff who receive "co-executive producer" credits, which are not the same as executive producers.

scope="row" | producer

| The producer(s) of the show. This generally should be for the series' line producer, who receives "Produced by" credit, and should not be used for low-level writers on the series' writing staff who receive credits such as "producer", "co-producer", or "supervising producer". See the Producers Guild of America [https://producersguild.org/code-of-credits-episodic-television-scripted/ guide to television credits] for more information.

scope="row" | news_editor

| This field should be used to indicate the senior reporter who oversees the writing of news and magazine video content for a current affairs/political show such as Newsnight.

scope="row" | location

| Production location, i.e. where the show was primarily shot. Leave blank if same as country of origin above.

scope="row" | cinematography

| The director of cinematography or lead cameraman.

scope="row" | animator

| The person(s) who served as animators of the show. Note: animation houses or other sub-contractors hired to perform production work should not be included here.

scope="row" | editor

| The film editor(s) or video editor(s).

scope="row" | camera

| Either Single-camera or Multi-camera.

scope="row" | runtime

| Episode duration. Should not include commercials and should be approximated, e.g. "22–26 minutes" for most half-hour shows.

scope="row" | company

| The names of the production company or companies that funded or organized series production. Note: sub-contractors hired to perform production work, e.g. animation houses, special effects studios, post-production facilities etc. should not be included here, as this may create confusion about the nation(s) of origin. Instead, use sourced prose in the article's Production section to explain these details.

scope="row" | budget

| Used for television films. The budget of the television film or miniseries.

! scope="col" colspan="2" style="text-align: center;" | Broadcast-specific

scope="row" id="network" | network

| The original network(s) on which the show first appeared in the country of origin. Use links if articles are available.

scope="row" id="released" | released

| The date the show first aired on its original network or streaming media site (such as Netflix). This should be used for one-off programs such as television films, television plays, and specials or for shows that released all of their episodes at the same time. Only insert the date after it has happened. The parameter is not restricted to a "premiere" date. In the event a program airs a full "preview" episode on TV in advance of a premiere, that date should be used instead. Do not use this field to list dates for spin-offs. Use {{tl|Start date}} (e.g. {{tlx|Start date|1981|2|26}}) so that the date is included in the template's hCalendar microformat, and is properly formatted according to a reader's Wikipedia date and time preferences. Add {{para|df|y}} if the article uses the dmy date format.

scope="row" id="first aired" | first_aired

| The date the show first aired its first episode on its original network or streaming media site. Only insert the date after it has happened. The parameter is not restricted to a "premiere" date. In the event a program airs a full "preview" episode on TV in advance of a premiere, that date should be used instead. Do not use this field to list dates for spin-offs. Use {{tl|Start date}} (e.g. {{tlx|Start date|1981|2|26}}) so that the date is included in the template's hCalendar microformat, and is properly formatted according to a reader's Wikipedia date and time preferences. Add {{para|df|y}} if the article uses the dmy date format.

scope="row" id="last aired" | last_aired

| The date the show first aired its last episode on its original network or streaming media site. Use "present" if the show is ongoing or renewed and {{tl|End date}} if the show has ended. Insert the last episode's date only after it has happened. In some cases, the fate of a program might be uncertain, for example if there are no announcements that a show has been renewed. If such a program has not aired a new episode in 12 months, "present" can be changed to the date the last episode aired, using {{tl|End date}}. This does not imply the series has been cancelled, rather that the program "last aired" on that date. This is to prevent programs from being listed as "present" in perpetuity. In the event that a program resumes airing after a long hiatus, such as more than 12 months between episodes or cancellation and subsequent renewal, the date template can be replaced with "present" to reflect the current status of the program.

scope="row" | network[2-8]

| If the show was canceled and revived or moved to another network, use the additional parameters. See #network for additional information.

scope="row" | released[2-8]

| If the show was canceled and revived or moved to another network, use the additional parameters. See #released for additional information.

scope="row" | first_aired[2-8]

| If the show was canceled and revived or moved to another network, use the additional parameters. See #first aired for additional information.

scope="row" | last_aired[2-8]

| If the show was canceled and revived or moved to another network, use the additional parameters. See #last aired for additional information.

! scope="col" colspan="2" style="text-align: center;" | Related

scope="row" | related

| Related TV shows, i.e. remakes, spin-offs, adaptations for different audiences, etc. For example, The Office (British TV series) and The Office (American TV series); The Upper Hand and Who's the Boss?; etc. Note that simply sharing crossover episodes does not make series related. Links to larger franchises may also be helpful to include, such as Law & Order (franchise) or List of Marvel Cinematic Universe television series.

=Deprecated parameters=

The "External links" parameters ({{para|website}}, {{para|website_title}}, {{para|production_website}}, and {{para|production_website_title}}) were removed from the infobox in March 2022 (discussion). If the website is useful and is not already present in the article's "External links" section, it should be added there.

The {{para|distributor}} parameter was removed from the infobox in March 2023 (discussion).

The "Chronology" parameters ({{para|preceded_by}} and {{para|followed_by}}) were removed from the infobox in March 2023 (discussion). Further clarifying of related and successive series or franchises is better discussed elsewhere in the article, such as its lead, within the body of the article or a "See also" section, or in a related navbox, and should be added or moved to those locations if needed. The parameter {{para|related}} remains in the infobox to also be utilized, while the heading was adjusted from "Chronology" to "Related".

The "Picture format" and "Audio format" parameters ({{para|picture_format}} and {{para|audio_format}}) were removed from the infobox in August 2023 (discussion).

= Controlling line-breaking in embedded bulletless lists =

Template {{tlx|nbsp}} may be used with {{tlx|wbr}} and {{tlx|nowrap}} to control line-breaking in bulletless lists embedded in the infobox (e.g. cast and other credits lists), to prevent wrapped long entries from being confused with multiple entries. See Template:Wbr/doc#Controlling line-breaking in infoboxes for details.
