A listing of the songs on an album or EP is usually done using the |tracks= field of {{Infobox song}}; for details, please see the infobox track listing examples. However, if the infobox |chronology= prevents its use, this template should be used instead to add a track listing.

Please note: track listings should not be added to infoboxes if there is a navigation template or navbox at the bottom of the article which already lists the songs.

Code

This template is used with the |misc= parameter of the infobox template. It should not be used on its own. If this template is substituted, it will return a cleaned-up copy of itself with unnecessary parameters removed and deprecated parameters replaced. Parameter indentation will also automatically be fixed.

That Album track listing
(tracks here)

<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" style="overflow:auto;">{{Infobox song ...

| misc = (tracks here)</syntaxhighlight>

Parameters

album

Enter the name of the album or EP to produce the header. It will be generated using italics followed by "track listing"; for example, That Album track listing or What EP track listing.

type

Enter song for all Infobox song types to generate a light blue background; for singles, enter single for khaki.

tracks

Add the template that has the album track listing, such as {{Rumours tracks}}, {{Nevermind tracks}}, etc.

Notes

This template is for use in the |misc= field. It will not work in infobox song |tracks=.
