Template documentation | This template uses Lua: |
This template is used to generate an external link to a web page for a person in the Internet Movie Database. It is intended for use in the external links section of an article.
- For a work (film/movie, TV or Web program/series, video game, etc.), use {{IMDb title}}.
- For a specific TV episode or Web series episode, use {{IMDb episode}}.
- For an episode list, use {{IMDb episodes}}.
- For an event, use {{IMDb event}}.
Usage
If the subject of the Wikipedia article is the same as the IMDb page, only ID number is required. The template then uses the Wikipedia article name as the anchor text.
{{IMDb name | ID }}{{IMDb name | id=
Error: The retired template {{Template:IMDb name}} has been transcluded; see mw:Help:Magic words#Other for details. To fix this, use only the code {{=}} to generate the = character. ID }}
To have the link text be other than the article name, use second parameter. This is necessary when adding an IMDb link to an article about somebody or something other than the linked person (for example, if you include the IMDb link for Bette Davis in the Joan Crawford article, you must specify Bette Davis's name as the text for the link).
{{IMDb name | ID | NAME }}{{IMDb name | id=
Error: The retired template {{Template:IMDb name}} has been transcluded; see mw:Help:Magic words#Other for details. To fix this, use only the code {{=}} to generate the = character. ID | name=
Error: The retired template {{Template:IMDb name}} has been transcluded; see mw:Help:Magic words#Other for details. To fix this, use only the code {{=}} to generate the = character. NAME }}
The parameter |section= can be set to award (alternatively awards) or bio (alternatively biography) to link to the awards or biography section for that person.
{{IMDb name | ID | NAME | section=
Error: The retired template {{Template:IMDb name}} has been transcluded; see mw:Help:Magic words#Other for details. To fix this, use only the code {{=}} to generate the = character. SECTION }}
{{IMDb name | id=
Error: The retired template {{Template:IMDb name}} has been transcluded; see mw:Help:Magic words#Other for details. To fix this, use only the code {{=}} to generate the = character. ID | name=

The ID number may be omitted if the article's Wikidata item includes property (P345).
{{IMDb name}}{{IMDb name | name=
