How to fill in the discography
Albums should be done already by me, however, all tracks should have the following criteria, which uses the Songbox template:-
{{Songbox |
| Name = (The name of the song)
| Album = (The album, single or EP the track is taken from)
| Length = mm:ss (The length of the track, duh!)
| AltTitles = (Unofficial, demo or pre-release titles of the song)
| First = (Date song was performed live, eg 'Crying Shame' would be 19th December 2005, linked to 'Earl's Court 19th' gig article)
| Latest = (Same as first play, but for last the last date a song was played. Leave blank for any songs currently played on tour)
| Recorded = (Year of the first and subsequent recordings)
| Writer = (The songwriter, in most cases Sir Bellamy)
| Producer = (The producer)
| Chart position = (The highest UK chart position, other countries may be added to the template later)
}}
Description
Images
The thumbnail images to the right should be of the main UK releases: CD, CD2/DVD and vinyl. For albums the back cover can be included. For these, use:
[[Image:image.jpg|right|thumb|CD1 cover art]] [[Image:image2.jpg|right|thumb|CD 2 cover art]] [[Image:image3|right|thumb|Vinyl cover art]]
Albums and EPs often have other images in their booklets. For these, use:
==Album booklet artwork== <gallery> Image:booklet.JPG| Image:booklet.JPG| Image:booklet.JPG| </gallery>
For international releases, promos, and any related images (such as of the CDs or back covers) use this form:
==[release name] Gallery== <gallery> Image:usa.JPG|US cover art Image:france.JPG|FR over art Image:promo.JPG|Promo cover art </gallery>
The best images to use are clear ones of the cover art, packaging etc. without any background stuff.

Lyrics
[Insert lyrics]
Alternative lyrics
[insert alternative lyrics] </pre> If you're still stuck on how it's done, look at the songs on Absolution Discussions on whether there should be more fields should be talked about below.
Another quick note
Singles should be like e.g. Sunburn (single) They should all have (single) next to them.
Albums; Absolution (album)
Compilations; Little Nicky OST (compilation)
Make sure that the single has the same criteria as the album.
The songs are then linked up to their own pages detailing the song and stuff, such as lyrics etc. Songs will have the title followed by (song), so: Sunburn (song). This is to distinguish between the songs and the singles.
Obviously, there'll be more information to put in each song once we've got the important ones nailed. For more discussions, use the discussions tab.
Country code
When including information pertaining to one country, use the ISO country code instead of the country's name. Some releases are exclusive to the Benelux region. For these, use "BX".
