This template is used on many pages and changes may be widely noticed. Test changes in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them.
This infobox automatically italicizes the article title. If this is not required, add |italic title=no to the list of parameters. If this is required and the title is over 50 characters, add |italic title=force.
This template adds an automatically generated short description. If the automatic short description is not optimal, replace it by adding {{Short description}} at the top of the article.
Infobox television is used to create an infobox which summarizes the main information of a particular television or internet program and can also be used for television films.

Parameters
Link people only if they have articles. For most of the fields below, if there are multiple entries, separate them using {{Plainlist}} or {{Unbulleted list}}. When adding data to fields, do not use small text as this reduces the size of the text to below 85% of the page font size. See Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Accessibility#Text for more information.
Parameter
Explanation
italic_title
A "no" value will disable the automatic italicization of the article's name. This parameter should not be used most of the time.
name
The name of the television program, film or miniseries, defaults to the page name. Need not be used if the name is the same as the article title as the infobox handles this automatically. If set, use the full name and do not wikilink it.
image
A suitable image relevant to the show. The image does not need to be wikilinked and should exclude "File:" e.g. Example.png Typically the image will be the series' title card, although this is not mandated. Free content should be used where available.
image_size
Width of the image in pixels, excluding "px". If not specified the image width defaults to the value explained in |image_upright=. The size should not be set greater than 300px.
image_upright
Use of this parameter is preferred to using |image_size=, as it allows auto-sizing of images according to user preferences. By default, the infobox image scales to upright=1.13 (which is 1.13 × 220px if the default thumbnail size has not been changed at Special:Preferences). For upright posters, a value of upright=1 is recommended.
The size should not be set to a value that would result in an image width greater than 300px. See help below for guidance on determining the value to be used.
image_alt
Alt text, as required by . It may include wikilinks.
caption
A caption explaining the image. An image of the title card including the title logo, or the logo only, of the show does not need a caption.
alt_name
An alternative name by which the television program is known.
native_name
Insert the native title using the {{Infobox name module}} template if it is different from the displayed title; please visit that template's page for full instructions. This parameter is for the native title only, i.e. it should not be used to add translated titles to the infobox. Example: {{Infobox name module|ta|பாசமலர்}} will display the Tamil native name in the infobox – "ta" is the ISO 639 code for Tamil.
genre
The genre of the show. Examples listed at Film and television genres. Link if an article is available. Genres must be reliably sourced.
creator
The show's creator or creators. This should be used over |developer= if the show is based on original material i.e. Lost or Law & Order, unless a reliable source attributes a person with the title "creator".
based_on
Insert the title of the source material and the name(s) of the source material writer(s). Use {{based on}} or similar formatting where possible. Use this field if a series is based on previously produced or published material, such as films, books, plays, articles, old screenplays etc, and is explicitly credited as such. Do not use this field where the source material is ambiguous or can not be reliably sourced. If a work was inspired by another, use |inspired_by=.
inspired_by
Insert the title of the source material that inspired the series and the name(s) of the source material's writer(s). Use {{based on}} or similar formatting where possible. Use this field if a series is inspired by previously produced or published material, such as films, books, plays, articles, old screenplays etc, and is explicitly credited as such. Do not use this field where the source material is ambiguous or can not be reliably sourced. If a work was based on another, use |based_on=.
developer
The show's developer or developers. This should be used over |creator= if the show is based on non-original material i.e. The Walking Dead or Smallville, unless a reliable source attributes a person with the title |developer=.
writer
The show's writer or writers. Do not use if the show has many (5+) writers.
screenplay
teleplay
Used for television films. Insert the name(s) of the screenplay writer(s). Use this field instead of the normal writer field if films divide writing credits between screenplay and story writers. In addition, link each writer to their appropriate article if possible. If "Teleplay by" credit is used, use |teleplay=.
story
Used for television films. Insert the name(s) of the story writer(s). Use this field instead of the normal writer field if films divide writing credits between screenplay and story writers. In addition, link each writer to their appropriate article if possible.
The show's presenters or hosts. Presenters are listed in original credit order followed by order in which new presenters joined the show. Years or seasons should not be included.
starring
The show's starring cast. Cast are listed in original credit order followed by order in which new cast joined the show. Character names, years, or seasons should not be included.
judges
If the show involves judges, list them here. Judges are listed in original credit order followed by order in which new judges joined the show. Years or seasons should not be included.
voices
Any voice artists used in the show. Cast are listed in original credit order followed by order in which new cast joined the show. Character names, years, or seasons should not be included.
narrated
The show's credited narrator(s) (if applicable). Years or seasons should not be included.
theme_music_composer
The name of the composer of the show's theme music. For non-theme music composer, use |composer=.
music
The name of the composer of the show's music. For the theme music composer, use |theme_music_composer=. Do not use if |theme_music_composer= is set; use |composer= instead.
open_theme
The name of the opening theme for the show.
end_theme
The name of the ending theme for the show.
composer
The principal composer or composers providing incidental music for the show's episodes.
country
The show's country of origin. Do not use flag icons, as this places an unnecessary emphasis on nationality – see for a detailed rationale. Do not link major countries, e.g., [[United States]], per WP:OVERLINK.
language
The original language or languages of the show. Do not link major languages, e.g., [[English language|English]], per WP:OVERLINK.
num_seasons
num_series
The number of seasons (US) or series (UK) produced. Use one or the other, not both. The parameter should only be incremented once the first episode of that season or series has aired, or if a reliable source confirms production has commenced. An inline citation is required if the total number of seasons produced is greater than the number aired.
num_episodes
num_specials
The number of episodes or specials released. This parameter should only be incremented when new episodes or specials air. An inline citation is required if the total number of episodes produced is greater than the number aired, such as in the case of a show being cancelled.
list_episodes
If a Wikipedia "List of" article exists for the show's episodes, put its name here. Do not use a link (i.e. do not include [[ ]]). Do not enter the number of episodes here, use num_episodes for that.
Production-specific
executive_producer
The executive producer or producers of the show.
producer
The producer or producers of the show.
news_editor
This field should be used to indicate the senior reporter who oversees the writing of news and magazine video content for a current affairs/political show such as Newsnight.
location
Production location, i.e. where the show is/was primarliy shot. Leave blank if same as country of origin above.
Episode duration. Should not include commercials and should be approximated, e.g. "22–26 minutes" for most half-hour shows.
company
The names of the production company or companies that funded/organized series production. Note: sub-contractors hired to perform production work, e.g. animation houses, special effects studios, post-production facilities etc. should not be included here, as this may create confusion about the nation(s) of origin. Instead, use sourced prose in the article's Production section to explain these details.
distributor
The names of the original distribution company or companies.
budget
Used for television films. The budget of the television film or miniseries.
Broadcast-specific
network
The original network(s) on which the show has appeared. Do not add foreign broadcasters here. Use links if articles are available.
picture_format
The video or film format in which the show is or was originally recorded or broadcast (Black and white, Film, 405-line, NTSC, PAL, SECAM, HDTV720p, HDTV1080i, 4KUHDTV). Do not use "SDTV" as it is ambiguous. Note that aspect ratios (4:3, 16:9 etc) are not a format and should not be included.
Date the show first aired on its original network (first_aired), or was released on streaming media sites such as Netflix (released). Only insert the date after it has happened. The parameter is not restricted to a "premiere" date. In the event a program airs a full "preview" episode on TV in advance of a premiere, that date should be used instead. Use {{Start date}} (e.g. {{Start date|1981|2|26}}) so that the date is included in the template's hCalendar microformat, and is properly formatted according to a reader's Wikipedia date and time preferences. Add |df=y if the article uses the dmy date format.
last_aired
The first air date of the show's last episode on its original network. Use "present" if the show is ongoing or renewed and {{End date}} if the show is ended. Only insert the last episode's date after it has happened. In some cases the fate of a program might be uncertain, for example if there are no announcements that a show has been renewed. If such a program has not aired a new episode in 12 months, "present" can be changed to the date the last episode aired, using {{End date}}. This does not imply the series has been cancelled, rather that the program "last aired" on that date. This is to prevent programs from being listed as "present" in perpetuity. In the event that a program resumes airing after a long hiatus, such as more than 12 months between episodes or cancellation and subsequent renewal, the date is simply replaced with "present" to reflect the "current" status of the program.
Chronological
preceded_by
If Show A was a predecessor of Show B, insert the name of Show A and production years − name in italics (linked if possible) followed by year-to-year in parentheses, e.g. ''[[That Ol' Show]]'' (1956–1957). This parameter should not be used to indicate a program that preceded another in a television lineup (i.e. the 8pm show vs the 8:30pm show), or to indicate what show replaced another in a specific time slot (ex: Temperatures Rising held the 8pm time slot before being replaced by Happy Days).
followed_by
If Show A was a successor of Show B, insert the name of Show A and production years (as for |preceded_by= above). This parameter should not be used to indicate a program that followed another in a television lineup (i.e. the 8pm show vs the 8:30pm show), or to indicate what show replaced another in a specific time slot (ex: Temperatures Rising held the 8pm time slot before being replaced by Happy Days).
The "External links" parameters (|website=, |website_title=, |production_website=, and |production_website_title=) were removed from the infobox in March 2022 (discussion). If the website is useful and is not already present in the article's External links section, it should be moved there.
Controlling line-breaking in embedded bulletless lists
Template {{nbsp}} may be used with {{wbr}} and {{nowrap}} to control line-breaking in bulletless lists embedded in the infobox (e.g. cast and other credits lists), to prevent wrapped long entries from being confused with multiple entries. See Template:Wbr/doc#Controlling line-breaking in infoboxes for details.
A "no" value will disable the automatic italicization of the article. This parameter should not be used most of the time.
