IMDb character at the Internet Movie Database
This is a template to generate links to Internet Movie Database, used exclusively for CHARACTERS.
- To link a work (film/movie, TV or Web program/series, video game, etc.), use
{{IMDb title}}instead. - To link a person (actor, actress, etc.), use
{{IMDb name}}instead. - To link a specific TV episode or Web series episode, use
{{IMDb episode}}instead. - To link an episode list, use
{{IMDb episodes}}instead. - To link a company, use
{{IMDb company}}instead.
Options
[ಬದಲಾಯಿಸಿ]The required parameter is just the ID number (for backward compatibility, the parameter can be named id) and the template then uses the article title as the anchor text:
* {{IMDb character|ID}}
To have the link text be other than the article name, use second parameter (for backward compatibility, it can be named name):
* {{IMDb character|ID|Character}}
Note that the options include the "*" for a bulleted list since this is most likely to be used in an "External links" section.
