Editing Template:Infobox/doc (section)

==Chronology==
This group of fields establishes a timeline of an artist's releases. In general, all albums and EPs should be placed in a single, chronological chain in order of release date ([[Wikipedia:single (music)|single]]s have a [[Template:Infobox song|separate infobox]], and thus a separate chain). Exceptions may be appropriate for artists with very complex discographies which may warrant more than one chain (for more information, see [[Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Albums/Archive 62#Multiple infobox chronologies|discussion]]). If the previous or next release has a Wikipedia article, [[Help:Link|link]] the title to the corresponding article. Take care to maintain the integrity of chains, so that when release "A" points to "B" as the next release, "B" points back to "A" as the previous release.

Wikipedia's [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style (dates and numbers)#Date formatting|date style guidelines]] recommend that years should not be linked within the chronology section. Cover images should not be included in the chronology, as that would not be [[Wikipedia:Non-free content|non-free use]].

No more than one album should be included in any of the three slots in the chronology. Some albums can be part of more than one chain, using an [[#Template:Extra chronology|"additional chronologies" section]].  Albums released on the same day should be listed separately, ordered using the standard ordering of those albums, or alphabetically if no such standard exists.

{{para|prev_title}} and {{para|prev_year}} specify the previous album in the chain and its title. If the current album is the first album in a chain, this field should be blank.

{{para|next_title}} and {{para|next_year}} specify the next album in the chain and its title. If the current album is the last album in a chain, this field should be blank.

At least one of the title fields must have a value filled in for the chronology to display. If the year displayed for the current article's album is incorrect, then it can be specified manually using {{para|year}}.
