===Parameters=== {| class="wikitable" |+Template parameters | style="width:130px" | Parameter ! Description |- | {{para|headline}} | A headline in the form of a table caption, to denote sides/disc numbers of an album (e.g. {{kbd|Side A}}, {{kbd|Disc 3}}, etc.) or in case of some works, special groups or cycles of songs. Table captions are required for accessibility, so if there are not divisions like those mentioned, text like "''[Album Name]'' track listing" is appropriate. |- | {{para|extra_column}} | Used to both enable and set the header for an additional column to hold per-track information. If this option is not used, no extra column will be shown. Use sparingly, in order to keep the overall column count to a minimum and if the respective type of data is not available for most tracks consider using the <code>note</code> fields instead. Some suggested headers: {{kbd|Artist}} ([[Wikipedia:Compilation album|compilation]]s), {{kbd|Original artist}} ([[Wikipedia:Cover version|cover]] albums), {{kbd|Producer(s)}}, {{kbd|Remixer(s)}} ([[Wikipedia:remix album|remix album]]s). |- | {{para|total_length}} | Used to display the total length of the record at the bottom of the list. It should be specified in minutes and seconds, even if it is longer than one hour, for example 74:23. This can be calculated manually, using {{tl|Track listing total length}}, or inserted automatically with one click if you install the [[Wikipedia:WP:USERSCRIPT|custom userscript]] at [[User:JPxG/TrackSum.js]]. |- | {{para|all_writing}}<br />{{para|all_lyrics}}<br />{{para|all_music}} | Used to display general songwriting credits for the entire record in a note above the track listing. If <code>all_writing</code> is supplied, the other two parameters are ignored. The value for this parameter is preceded by "All tracks are written by " or "All lyrics are written by " or "All music is composed by ", depending on the parameter that is used. Provide terminal punctuation and any references in the parameter value, if desired. |- | {{para|width}} | An optional parameter to set the overall width of the table. The value must include the "%" sign. Upon default exclusion, the default width of the table will extend to 100% of the page width. |- |{{para|title_width}}<br />{{para|writing_width}}<br />{{para|music_width}}<br />{{para|lyrics_width}}<br />{{para|extra_width}} | Include these parameters to override the default column widths (e.g. {{para|title_width|30%}}). '''Note:''' If the width of a column is overridden, the width of all other columns used in the table must be also overridden for it to appear correctly. |- | {{para|title{{var|N}}}} | (i.e. <code>title1</code>, <code>title2</code>, etc.) The title of the respective track. Note that a track listing does not have to start with a #1 or continue with 1, 2, 3... order (e.g. for having side B of an LP start at track six or leaving out empty tracks preceding a bonus track). Track names are automatically put into quotes, unless the field is left empty, in which case the track name will display as {{samp|Untitled}} (without quotes). This is used for when no title is given to a track in any form on the album or media that is officially related to the album. |- | {{para|note{{var|N}}}} | (i.e. <code>note1</code>, <code>note2</code>, etc.) An optional note to be displayed in parentheses behind the title. Useful for original titles in other languages/scripts (e.g. kanji) or to denote bonus tracks only included in certain editions. Keep notes short. Excessive commentary disrupts the flow of the track listing, which should be easily scannable. |- | {{para|writer{{var|N}}}} | (i.e. <code>writer1</code>, <code>writer2</code>, etc.) Use to denote the writer(s) of individual tracks. Avoid redundancy: if all or most tracks on a record were written by the same person(s), consider using the <code>all_writing</code> option and using the <code>note{{var|N}}</code> options for any exceptions. |- | {{para|lyrics{{var|N}}}}<br />{{para|music{{var|N}}}} | (i.e. <code>lyrics1</code>, <code>music1</code>, <code>lyrics2</code>, <code>music2</code>, etc.) Use to denote the lyricist(s) and composer(s) of individual tracks. If most tracks are written by the same people, you can use the <code>all_lyrics</code> and <code>all_music</code> options instead, and use the <code>note{{var|N}}</code> options for exceptions. Note that if any <code>writer{{var|N}}</code> options are specified, all <code>lyrics{{var|N}}</code> and <code>music{{var|N}}</code> options will be ignored, and the Lyrics and Music columns will not be displayed. |- | {{para|extra{{var|N}}}} | (i.e. <code>extra1</code>, <code>extra2</code>, etc.) Holds the content of the user-set column for the respective track ''(see <code>extra_column</code>)''. |- | {{para|length{{var|N}}}} | (i.e. <code>length1</code>, <code>length2</code>, etc.) The length of the track in a {{var|m:ss}} formatting (or {{var|mm:ss}} or even {{var|h:mm:ss}} if particularly long tracks occur). For example: {{kbd|4:35}} |- | {{para|collapsed}} | {{strongbad|Deprecated}}. Including this parameter with the value {{var|yes}} ({{para|collapsed|yes}}) will cause the track listing table to start out collapsed. This was intended for very long lists or pages with several lists. {{strong|Do not use this in mainspace}} (articles), per [[Wikipedia:MOS:DONTHIDE|MOS:DONTHIDE]] and [[Wikipedia:MOS:ACCESSIBILITY|MOS:ACCESSIBILITY]]. Doing so breaks all of the following: 1) in-page searching, 2) screen readers, 3) mobile accessibility to the content, 4) browsers without Javascript (or with it temporarily disabled), 5) various [[Wikipedia:WP:REUSE|reuse]] of Wikipedia content. Use of this category will added the article to [[:Category:Track listings that use the collapsed parameter]]. [[Template talk:Track listing/Archive 13|Consensus was to remove this feature in 2014]]. |}
