Wikipedia:WikiProject Comics/Superteambox instructions

STB instructions

The superteambox should use {{Superteambox}} as shown below. Copy and paste the following text at the beginning of the team's article:

{| style="background: transparent;" |<pre>{{Superteambox <!--Wikipedia:WikiProject Comics--> |name= |image= <!-- "filename format only --> |imagesize= <!-- numeral only, defaults to 250 --> |caption= |team_name= |publisher= |debut= |creators= |base= |members= |memberlist= |subcat= |hero= |villain= |sortkey={{PAGENAME}} |}}

• Parameter notes:
  • With the exception of team_name, do not delete a parameter - leave the field blank if there is nothing to enter. If the article name is the same as the name to be used for the infobox, team_name can be removed.
  • Where a field has multiple items, separate each with <br />. For example: creators=Stan Lee<br />Jack Kirby
  • The image field is setup use the file name only and with out braces. For example: image= example.jpg
  • The imagesize parameter is set up to only accept a numeric value. If left blank or if a sting (such as "225px") is entered, the image will default to 250px wide.
    • If you find the image to be too tall, reduce the value below 250.
    • The parameter is capped at 250. Entering values grater than this will result in the default setting being used.
  • The caption will appear below the image. Keep it short, but indicate the comic book and issue # if it is from a comic book, in the form Wolverine #17 (typed as ''Wolverine'' #17))
  • For the debut field, provide the first appearance of the team AS a team (with the team named on either the cover or within the comic). Example: Brave and The Bold #28, Avengers v1 #1.
  • The creators field should list the creators of the team, not the individual members.
  • Base should list a team's most significant bases, including the current one (where applicable). Limit this to three at most, however.
  • Members should list the past and present membership of the team. Again, separate with <br />, not commas. For teams that have included many different members, it may sometimes be appropriate to leave this blank and use Memberlist instead.
  • Memberlist should link to any article lists the members for this team. This should normally only be used for large teams, as a replacement for Members
  • This template is designed to place the articles into the relevant "super teams" categories. Entering the appropriate company at subcat will place the article.
  • Hero and villain are mutually exclusive logical functions. One of the two must be set for sub to work properly.
  • Sortkey is required for use with subcat. It can be changed for forcing a different sort in the category. This parameter will not recognize a leading space.
