This is a template to generate links to [[Internet Movie Database]]. This template '''should be used exclusively for ''TITLES''''', that is, of movies, TV series, games, etc. | |||
:To link a person (actor, actress, etc.), use {{tl|imdb name}} instead. | |||
:To link a tv episode, use {{tl|imdb episode}} instead. | |||
:To link a company, use {{tl|imdb company}} instead. | |||
:To link a character, use {{tl|imdb character}} instead. | |||

# Search on [http://www.imdb.com imdb.com] for the title you want. On the Wikipedia page of the film concerned this can often be done conveniently with the link produced by previewing <nowiki>{{imdb title}}</nowiki>. This may not work if the page title is more than just the film title. | |||

:where "#######" is the number you've copied, and "Title" is the title of the movie or show. | |||
# (Optional) If you want to add an additional description to distinguish this film/show from another that may be on the same page with the same name, use the following text: | |||

:where "#######" is the number you've copied, "Title" is the title of the movie or show, and "Description" is the description of the show, in parentheses. | |||

#Copy "0426883" and then add this number as parameter: | |||
::<nowiki>{{imdb title|0426883}}</nowiki> | |||
The result on the page Alpha Dog is: | |||

This is a documentation subpage for Template:Imdb title (see that page for the template itself). It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
This is a template to generate links to Internet Movie Database. This template should be used exclusively for TITLES, that is, of movies, TV series, games, etc.
- To link a person (actor, actress, etc.), use {{imdb name}} instead.
- To link a tv episode, use {{imdb episode}} instead.
- To link a company, use {{imdb company}} instead.
- To link a character, use {{imdb character}} instead.
Instructions
- Search on imdb.com for the title you want. On the Wikipedia page of the film concerned this can often be done conveniently with the link produced by previewing {{imdb title}}. This may not work if the page title is more than just the film title.
- Click on the correct link to go to the movie's page (or whatever you're looking for). Be sure you're getting on the correct title page.
- The page URL should look like http://www.imdb.com/title/tt#######, where "#######" indicates a number.
- Copy ONLY that number (be sure to remove the "tt"[1])
- Add to the external links section the text:
- {{imdb title|#######|Title}}
- where "#######" is the number you've copied, and "Title" is the title of the movie or show.
- (Optional) If you want to add an additional description to distinguish this film/show from another that may be on the same page with the same name, use the following text:
- {{imdb title|#######|Title|Description}}
- where "#######" is the number you've copied, "Title" is the title of the movie or show, and "Description" is the description of the show, in parentheses.
Example
- On the page Alpha Dog, preview {{imdb title}} and search using the link Alpha Dog produced. You'll get to this page: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0426883/
- Copy "0426883" and then add this number as parameter:
- {{imdb title|0426883}}
The result on the page Alpha Dog is:
- Alpha Dog at the Internet Movie Database.
Typically this is a list item in the external links section (even if there is only one link), so you should add "*" in front.
2nd example
- Searching for the 1993 remake of the TV series "Route 66", you'll get to this page: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0106117/
- Copy "0106117" and then write:
- {{imdb title|0106117|Route 66|(1993)}}
The result is Route 66 (1993) at the Internet Movie Database
Linksearch
For a given link target (or first part of that) the pages from where there are links are found by a link like:
Note
- ↑ The leading zeros are not needed but recommended, for Linksearch uniformity is useful.
