Parameters

Parameter	Explanation
name	The article name, without qualifiers, i.e. John Doe, not John Doe (wrestler).
image	Image defaults to 220px width.
image_size	Size to display image (e.g. 200px (for width), x300px (for height), or 200x300px). This parameter should not normally need to be set.
image_upright	Scales the image thumbnail from its default size by the given factor. Values less than 1 scale the image down (0.9 = 90%) and values greater than 1 scale the image up (1.15 = 115%).
landscape	Set to "yes" when using wide, short images. The image height (rather than width) will be limited to 200 pixels.
alt	Alternative text for image. See WP:ALT for more details.
caption	Image caption. Try to include date/year of the photo.
birth_name	Birth name, if different from name.
birth_date	Date of birth. If living, use {{Birth date and age}}, otherwise use {{Birth date}}. For living people supply only the year unless the exact date is already WIDELY published, as per WP:DOB. Treat such cases as if only the year is known, so use {{birth year and age}} or a similar option.
birth_place	Place of birth.
death_date	Date of death. If date of birth is known, use {{Death date and age}}, otherwise use {{Death date}}.
death_place	Place of death.
death_cause	Cause of death. Should be clearly defined and sourced.

spouse	Name(s) of spouse(s) and years of marriage. Use {{Marriage}}.
partner	Name(s) of notable unmarried partners and years of relationship.
children	Number of children (e.g. 3), or list names if independently notable. Use {{Plainlist}} for multiple entries.

relatives	Names of siblings or other relatives; include only if independently notable or particularly relevant. Include the relationship in parentheses after the name (sister, uncle, etc.). Use {{Plainlist}} for multiple entries.
family	Link to family article, if applicable. See list of family relations in professional wrestling.
website	Official website. Note this is not to be used for profile pages on wrestling websites, social media pages or fansites. Use {{URL}}.
ring_names	Known ring names. Use bold print on active names. Use {{Plainlist}} for multiple entries.

billed	Location billed by the promoter. Use {{Plainlist}} for multiple entries.
trainer	Name(s) of the individuals/schools that trained the wrestler. Use {{Plainlist}} for multiple entries.
