Template:Lyrics line

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

The Lyrics templates are used to list the lyrics in a song. Three templates are used to form the lyrics table:

• {{Lyrics head}} - Contains table headers for the top of the lyrics table
  • Defines the columns and their orders
  • Adds a hidden HTML tag for the lyrics option fieldset to attach to
• {{Lyrics line}} - Template for all the individual lyrics lines, for each verse in a song
• {{Lyrics tail}} - Contains table footer for the bottom of the lyrics table

Parameters

Template for a verse of song lyrics for lyrics tables. Parameters "japanese", "romaji", and "english" are only defined if their respective columns are defined in the "Lyrics head" template.
