Revision as of 04:58, 10 April 2015

This template can be included into articles. It shows a table of all recordings of a certain orchestra.

Edit the source code to see the template code.

Usage

Use the following code within an article of an orchestra:

{{Recordings by orchestra}}

This will list all recordings stored in the TangoWiki that are assigned to this orchestra with their data.

If the recordings concern another orchestra as the one in the page name, like in the case of Edgardo Donato (with Donato-Zerrillo), use the following code:

{{Recordings by orchestra|Name of the orchestra}}.

This will show only the recordings of the specified orchestra.

If you need to specify the query further, you shouldn't use this template, instead create a distinct query.

Example

(In the example are only the first 3 recordings shown!) Code on the page: {{Recordings by orchestra|Edgardo Donato}}

Result: There are 0 recordings. Click expand to view all.

Code on the page: {{Recordings by orchestra|Donato-Zerrillo}}

Result: There are 0 recordings. Click expand to view all.

The query

• Only the first 300 entries are shown, if there are more than 300 recordings, a link "further results…" is added.
• The table is collapsed by default and can be expanded on click.

The query asks for the following data:

• Title
• Orchestra
• Singer
• Record date
• Genre
• Label
• Disco No
• Matrix prefix
• Matrix No
• Side (A, B)
• Disc type (Shellac, Vinyl)
• Key word
• Image
• Sound snippet

The table will NOT (yet) show the following recording data:

• Orchestra
• Alternative title
• Title as it appears on shellac
• Source of verification
• Comments
• TangoTunes SKU, tango.info TINT

Templates

This template uses 3 subtemplates for the table: Record table body, Record table intro orchestra (different to song recordings) and Record table outro.
