Template:Bookbox/doc

This template is for use in any article about a book relating to the Forgotten Realms. All parameters are optional except title and can be left blank. If undefined, these optionals will not appear. An image will be scaled to fit into the infobox, and a caption will be italicized.

This template is loosely based on the book template at Wikipedia.

Usage
Please note that this template takes both ISBN-10 and ISBN-13. You may specify one or both, but please specify each number only once.

Parameters

 * image (Optional) : An image of the product's cover. Enter just the name of the file. The image will be resized to fit the infobox. For backward compatibility  and   tags will still work, but should be changed to the new style.

 * setting (Optional) : What is the setting for this book?
 * game_edition (Optional) : The edition of D&D that this book supports. Please specify as a number only.
 * edition1, edition2, edition3, edition4, edition5 : If there is only one edition, leave this blank. Otherwise add as many of these as there are distinct editions of the book. Note this generally does not apply to sourcebooks which are vastly different between D&D editions and should get their own article. This is for books that are different in either binding, released date, or both.
 * binding1, binding2, binding3, binding4, binding5 (Optional) : Usually one of the options below, but other binding types are possible.
 * Paperback
 * Mass Market Paperback – the binding for standard-sized novels
 * Hardcover
 * Boxed set
 * E-book
 * PDF


 * released1, released2, released3, released4, released5 (Optional) : The released date. It could be simply a year ("1998") or a month and year ("June 1998"), or even a fully qualified date ("September 1st, 2004").
 * pages1, pages2, pages3, pages4, pages5 (Optional) : The number of pages in the book, if applicable. E-books don't often have page numbers that correspond to a printed version.
 * isbn10-1, isbn10-2, isbn10-3, isbn10-4, isbn10-5 (Optional) : The 10-digit ISBN number of the book.
 * isbn13-1, isbn13-2, isbn13-3, isbn13-4, isbn13-5 (Optional) : The 13-digit ISBN number of the book.
 * cite1, cite2, cite3, cite4, cite5 (Optional) : This is usually the binding type ("Hardback", "MMP") but could be "Kindle", for example. This will attempt to construct a link to the citation template for this particular edition. It takes the title and the value of this field and links to  and so on for the other four parameters. So for the novel Dissolution, hardcover edition, you would put "Hardcover" in this field which generates cite this. If cite1 is not specified, it will attempt to create a link to  . (  tags are removed from the title first.)
 * series (Optional) : If this book is part of a series, the name of the series.
 * preceded_by, followed_by (Optional) : Add wiki links to the books that immediately precede and follow the entry. If the entry is the first or last book in a series, use "none" for the proceeding or following publication.
 * source (Optional) : The location(s) of the information about this book. This will usually be Amazon.com but could be anywhere that lists information about the book. To find the Amazon.com product listing URL, take the ISBN-10 number, remove all the dashes so only 10 digits or letters remain, and add it to the end of . For example, ISBN 0-7869-2881-6 would be found at  . You can use Amazon to easily generate this link.
 * citetitle (Optional, not shown above) : If the title does not match the  or is not the title used in the citation template for this book, then you may specify the correct title here. For example, the Draconomicon (1990) page would use   because the title is set to just "Draconomicon". Setting this to "none" will turn off this feature.


 * binding, released, pages, isbn, isbn10, isbn13 (Deprecated) : DO NOT USE. These are only here for backward compatibility with older versions of this template. They may be removed at any time.

Example for one edition
If there is only one edition of the book, leave edition1 blank and fill out the other fields as best you can. Here is an example from Unapproachable East (sourcebook):

Example for more than one edition
Particularly with novels, there is often more than one edition. In this case, fill out a numbered section for each edition, starting with edition1, and leaving unknown or inapplicable info blank. You may also forego listing it all in the infobox and use the Editions template to create an editions table inside the article instead.
