Шаблон:Infobox video game/doc/syntax guide
Note: In the following, plurals such as "developers", "publishers", "distributors", "artists", etc do not exclude the singular (i.e. "artists", for example, implies "artist or artists").
General fields
collapsible
- Set
=yes
to make the box collapsible.
state
- Determines the initial collapsed state of the infobox. Set
=collapsed
to put the box in collapsed state initially. Set=expanded
to put the box in expanded state initially. Set=autocollapse
to have the box's initial collapsed state be determined automatically based on the number of other templates in the article that also have the "collapsible" attribute. (Has no effect ifcollapsible
is not used.)
title
- The full name of the game including punctuation and style (e.g., "Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars" instead of "Super Mario RPG" or "Legend of the Seven Stars"). Do not wikilink the name of the game.
show image
- Set
=yes
to make the image show even when collapsed. (Has no effect ifcollapsible
is not used.)
image
- The ideal image is an English-language cover or, in the case of an arcade game, a promotional flier. Secondarily, use a logo or foreign-language cover. When cover designs differ between regions, use the cover from the region associated with the game's first English language release, though do not change another English-language version that has been uploaded first. Use art without platform decals, such as PC cover art, where possible. Avoid screenshots (per consensus), and multiple images (per WP:FUC #3). Also see the WPVG image guideline.
- Format the filename without the
File:
prefix (e.g.,name.jpg
). The infobox uses "frameless" and "upright" flags to auto-size the image and accommodate user preferences. Do not manually set the image size with added syntax (e.g., "frameless", "upright", or "px").
alt
- Alternative text - A short descriptive text associated with an image that serves the same purpose and conveys the same essential information as the image. Useful in situations where the image is not available to the reader, e.g If they are using a screen reader due to a visual impairment. See WP:ALT for information about how to write good Alternative text.
caption
- A short description of the image. Is it a flyer, a game cover, or something else? (See above for what an image should consist of.) This is used as the alternate text that will be displayed below the image. (Does not show if
image
is not used.)
developer
- The popular name or names of the game developers. This field is for the game development company (e.g., Nintendo) or, if confirmed by primary sources, the name of the team that developed the game (e.g., Nintendo EAD). In the case of a game made entirely by one person, use the designer field instead. The names can be wikilinked. Individual development tasks handled by different companies (e.g., scenario, programming) and ports should not be mentioned in the infobox but in the article text instead.
publisher
- The popular name or names of the video game publishers. The names can be wikilinked. Use the {{video game release}} template for regional publishers. If there are many publishers or if the list grows too long, use the {{Collapsible list}} template, fill the field
title=
with the primary publisher, and also include the fieldtitlestyle=font-size:inherit;background:transparent;text-align:left;font-weight:normal;
.
distributor
- The popular name or names of the game's distributors. Only use this field if it is a different company from the publisher. The names can be wikilinked.
series
- The video game series the game is associated with. Only use this field if there is an article for the series. Wikilink and italicize the names (such as
''[[Halo (series)|Halo]]''
).
engine
- The game's engine. Only use this field for game engines with an established, independent article and wikilink its name (such as
[[id Tech 3]]
).[1] Do not list middleware such as Havok, SpeedTree or Euphoria.
platforms
- The unabbreviated console or operating system for which the game was specifically developed. This includes dedicated ports, but not games in emulation or services. E.g.:
- Deus Ex was ported specifically for the PlayStation 2, but was emulated on the PlayStation 3
- EarthBound was not ported but emulated on the Wii U Virtual Console
- Microsoft Windows, not Steam
- Xbox 360, not Xbox Live Arcade
- Wii U, not Wii U Virtual Console
- The original platform, not PlayStation Now or OnLive
released
- Add release dates for English-language regions and the developer's region. Use only general public release dates, not festival, preview, or early access dates. If possible, use the game's exact release date ("ноябр 22, 2024"). Use the {{video game release}} template:
{{video game release |NA=ноябр 22, 2024}}
. If there are many release dates, enclose them all with the {{Collapsible list}} template[2] and add the fieldtitlestyle=font-weight:normal;font-size:inherit;background:transparent;text-align:left
followed bytitle=
set as the earliest release date. Platforms can be abbreviated to fit in one line and should be listed as bolded section titles without colons, separated with commas (e.g., PS2, GCN, Xbox).
genre
- The gameplay genre or genres (such as first-person shooter, adventure, etc) the game is categorized in by its developers and publishers, or by reliable sources. This should not include thematic genres (like science fiction, horror, etc.) as video games are more difficult to categorize in such a way. Verifiable thematic genres can be mentioned in the article's body.
modes
- Playing modes offered by the game. Currently, the only accepted values are single-player, multiplayer, or both.[3]
media
- This field has been deprecated and is being phased out (see talk page).
Arcade-game specific
cabinet
- The type of cabinet the arcade game uses (e.g., upright, sit-down, cocktail, custom).

arcade system
- The name of or names associated with the arcade game's system board hardware. In case of unique arcade hardware, omit this field and use those below.
cpu
- The names and number of central processing units used by the arcade game's hardware, wikilinked if possible.
sound
- The names and number of hardware [sound-processing units?] used by the arcade game's hardware, wikilinked if possible.
Credit fields
As with the developer field, individual development tasks for one field (e.g. which artists designed characters and which designed concept art; or which writers created story lines and which wrote scripts) should not be mentioned in the infobox but in the article text instead. Individual tasks should be generally kept to prose and the field should only list key people.[4][5] For example, the distinction between story and script writers of The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess is mentioned in the article's development section.
director
- The popular names of the game directors or creative directors who oversaw the creative development of the game. The names can be wikilinked.
- List only the person credited specifically with the title "director" or "co-director";
- Do not list other types of directors in this field;
- For games directed by a succession of people (e.g. MMOs and games with exceptionally long development cycles), indicate their years of involvement.
producer
- The popular names of the game producers in overall charge of the production of the game. The names can be wikilinked.
- List only the person credited specifically with the title "Producer";
- Do not list the "Executive producer" or other "sub"-producer credits, as they are not generally as intimately involved in a game's development;
- If three or more people are credited as "co-producer"s, discuss whether any one played the most significant part and, if decided, list that person;
- List the "Creative producer" only if said person's involvement in the game is discussed in the article's development-related section.
designer
- The popular names of the game designers, i.e. people who worked on the game's system. The names can be wikilinked. This field is often unfilled in modern high-budget development due to large team sizes and collaboration. Older games and indie games are more likely to use this position.
- If a single person is credited as "Lead designer", list that person; synonyms for this position include "Game-design director" and "Lead planner";
- If there is no equivalent to #1, omit this field;
- If three or more people are credited as "lead designer"s, discuss whether any one played the most significant part and, if decided, list that person.
programmer
