Template:Concert page machine - 1995
{{subst:Concert page machine |release d= <!--The date of a show in 1995 without brackets around it, i.e. March 31--> |coverimage= |caption= |support= |headliner= |other band(s)= |debuts= |guests= |released= |pers. changes= |attendance= |tour manager= |press= |setlist= <!--See note below for some automated options--> {{Setlist |setlist source = |title1 = |title2 = |title3 = |title4 = |title5 = |title6 = |title7 = |title8 = |title9 = |title10 = |title11 = }} |see also= |external links= |references=yes |footnotes=yes }}
Issues
- If you have more than one opening act to list, the grammar of the page's lede gets messed up. Haven't figured out how to account for that yet. You'll need to save the template once, then go back and clean that up.
- If you want to add other sections (i.e. a Karl's Corner/Historic event quote), you'll also need to do that after your initial save.
Notes
Setlist parameter auto-options
If you enter "gone" for this parameter (without quotes), it'll give you the "this setlist is gone" template with the lil weezer guy. If you enter in "missing" it'll give you the missing setlist template. If you're going to add an actual setlist, you should just use the {{Setlist}} template like you would normally, but within the "setlist" paramter as displayed above (if that was confusing just ask). The above example assumes you'll have a setlist to enter in and provides parameters for 11 songs. I saw a few '95 shows with 11-song setlists so I chose that #. Curious about how the auto-options work? It's a "parser function" called "switch." See the Wikipedia help page. Wondering if Jason made up the term auto-option? Yes I did.
Setlist source parameter
Pretty pretty please put sources if you're adding a setlist. The "setlist source" parameter is included above within the {{Setlist}} template. That same parameter works within this concert page machine template too, (i.e. not within the {{Setlist}} but still in the template you're using.) This is so you can specify a source the setlist being "gone." If you're making a concert page whose setlist is gone, you can complete this template thusly (HMC trademarked word):
{{subst:Concert page machine |release d= ... |setlist=gone |setlist source=<!--your source for the setlist being gone--> ... }}
References and Footnotes
The above example has "yes" for both the references and footnotes parameters. This will create those sections at the bottom of your page. Leave those parameters blank if you don't have any references or footnotes (and don't want empty sections created for them). If you're adding a setlist, you should put yes for references. Because you should pretty please be specifying a source for a setlist :)
