Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

This template uses Lua:

This is the standard infobox for an entry in the Eurovision Song Contest and uses the {{Infobox song contest entry}} template. The box to the right is an example. You can click on "edit this page" and copy-and-paste the markup to a different article, replacing its information with info on the country and year you choose to write about.

The song field should show the flag of the country and the name of the song as presented during the ESC.
For the flag, use this template: {{flag icon|enter_name_of_country_here}} The title of the song should be surrounded by quotation marks per the manual of style.

e.g. for Serbia's Molitva, enter {{flag icon|Serbia}} "Molitva"

Embedding

By adding |embed=yes to the first line of code, one can embed this infobox into another, creating one continuous infobox. Other infoboxes will need to have a special parameter that allows embedding. For example, if the song's page already includes the {{Infobox song}} template, which most should, then the {{Infobox song contest entry}} template should be added to the |misc= field in the Infobox song template. For a more detailed explanation about using Infobox song and additional parameters, please see the template page.

Notes

^ ^1.0 ^1.1 ^1.2 ^1.3 For short horizontal lists of two or three items, comma separators are acceptable, but for longer lists the use of {{flatlist}} or {{hlist}} is preferred as they offer a benefit to users of screen readers. Vertical lists should always be implemented by {{plainlist}} or {{ubl}} and never by <br /> tags for reasons of accessibility.

Details

To learn what to input into each blank, see above and {{Infobox song}}.
When using this double template embedding, do NOT use the image and caption fields for an image of the performance or the regular album cover. The album cover can already be seen in the {{Infobox song}} while an image of the performance would be appropriate for the artist's page or in the main body of the text. A promotional cover is acceptable as an image in the ESC infobox.
This double template embedding should be used more often than just {{Infobox song contest entry}} since most Eurovision songs are released as CD singles.

This is the TemplateData for this template used by TemplateWizard, VisualEditor and other tools. See a monthly parameter usage report for Template:Infobox song contest entry in articles based on its TemplateData.
