Template:Video/doc

This is a subpage documenting Template:Video. To change the template, edit that page; to change the template's documentation (seen below), edit this one.

Purpose

Stores and optionally displays information about a video linked to a performance entry in the Cargo table Videos.

Storage

This template defines and populates the Cargo table Videos. It references Performances through the field perfID.

Parameters

Parameter	Required	Description	Example
pid	Yes	Local performance ID (the same as id used in {{Performances}}). Automatically prefixed with Video/doc.	pid=01
url	Yes	Full video URL.	url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=abc123
duration	No	Video length type. Allowed: full, short, fragment.	duration=full
quality	No	Subjective quality rating. Allowed: best, good, acceptable, poor.	quality=good
comment	No	Additional notes (wikitext allowed).	comment=Official HD upload
title	No	Optional title for link display. If not set, title is auto-fetched by Module:VideoMetaData.	title=Official Music Video
nodisp	No	Suppresses on-page link display when set.	nodisp=1

Display

If nodisp is not set, the template outputs a clickable link using {{xl}}:

[url title]↗

If title is omitted, the link text is generated automatically by Module:VideoMetaData from Data:VideoMetaData.json.

If duration is set, it will be displayed in small gray print after the link, see the example below.

Example

{{Video
 |pid=01
 |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=abc123
 |duration=full
 |quality=best
 |comment=Official upload
 |title=Official Music Video
}}

This would store the video record linked to Video/doc_01 in Cargo and display a link:

Official Music Video^↗
