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

This template allows linking to external links found on most film title articles. This will aid in the maintenance and standardization of these external links.

How to use[edit]

Not all parameters must be used, but do not delete parameters when using. An empty parameter shows a link was considered not worth adding, but a missing link implies the parameter was forgotten or didn't exist at the time the template was applied.
Please discuss all proposed additions, deletions and formatting changes to the Template itself within the Template's Talk page.

Cut & paste[edit]

Either

{{subst:FilmLinks
| name            = 
| imdb            = 
| allmovie        = 
| mojo            = 
| metacritic      = 
| rotten          = 
| screen          = 
| brit            = 
| sony            = 
| turner          = 
}}

or (preferred)

{{subst:FilmLinks | name = | imdb = | allmovie = | mojo = | metacritic = | rotten = | screen = | brit = | sony = | turner = }}

The order of the parameters does not matter.
