Template:Infobox person/doc



is the main infobox dealing with people who have appeared on The Graham Norton Show. To use, simply copy and paste the whole of the following code onto your page, at the very top of that page.

Understanding the variables
Unlike many infoboxes you may have encountered on Wikia, this one is largely self-linking, and it automatically puts the page into several categories. This means that you just have to enter the name; you don't have to also. Nor do you have to put the page into any categories other than the one this infobox assigns to it.

Best practices
Here's an idea of how to best use the variables in the template:
 * = Images should be drawn of the person as seen on TGNS — not general publicity photos. Image width is fixed firm at 300px, so be sure your image has that minimum width.  You do not need to type, just.
 * = Optional image caption. The best captions would be ones that gave the episode number from which the pic was taken.
 * = This is the only required variable in the whole infobox because it controls how the infobox will appear. You must enter one of the following types:  or.
 * = Jobs the person is known for: director, producer, actor, singer, etc. These will be linked to Wikipedia articles, so please make sure there's a Wikipedia article at the end of the link.
 * Note that you should not use the term "writer" as it's a little imprecise. Please use
 * for theatrical or televisual writers
 * for most writers who work primarily in print
 * for writers who work for periodicals (or who self-identify as such)
 * for people who primarily share their opinions online
 * = Titles of films, movies, albums or songs for which the person is known. This variable is automatically linked to the Wikipedia page on the subject, and it's automatically italicised.
 * = Like, this variable automatically links to a Wikipedia page. This is meant mainly for musical group names, like , but it could conceivably be used for political party or other group affiliation, like.
 * = For musicians only, you can list here the musical genre(s) for which they are best known.
 * = Titles of films, movies, albums or songs for which the person was on TGNS. This variable is not automatically linked so that you can use  for intra-Wikia links or  for Wikipedia links.  Generally, we'd prefer Wikia links, but if the Wikia on the subject isn't well-created yet, go for the more useful Wikipedia link. If the person was not promoting a specific product, just put.
 * = This is for simple, one-word names of big awards they've won: Oscar, Emmy, Grammy, Tony, BAFTA, Logie
 * = Entry here must be precisely in this format: . Please note capitalisation, spacing and lack of leading zeros. The reason it's so important to have precision in the formatting is that the information is then used to populate categories.  If you use, and another user settles on , then two different categories will be created.
 * = For videos to be included in the infobox. As with images, above, all you need is the title of the page.  So  is all you need — not.
