This is a template to generate links to the [[Internet Movie Database]] for names of film personnel.
: ''For a work (film/movie, TV or Web program/series, video game, etc.), use {{Tl|IMDb title}}.''
: ''For a specific TV episode or Web series episode, use {{Tl|IMDb episode}}.''
: ''For an episode list, use {{Tl|IMDb episodes}}.''
: ''For a company, use {{Tl|IMDb company}}.''
: ''For an event, use {{Tl|IMDb event}}.''


:To link a work (film/movie, TV or Web program/series, video game, etc.), use {{Tl|IMDb title}}.
== Usage ==
:To link a specific TV episode or Web series episode, use {{Tl|IMDb episode}}.
If the subject of the Wikipedia article is the same as the IMDb page, only ID number is required. The template then uses the Wikipedia article name as the [[anchor text]].
:To link an episode list, use {{Tl|IMDb episodes}}.
* {{tlcw|{{BASEPAGENAME}} | <var>ID</var> }}
:To link a company, use {{Tl|IMDb company}}.
* {{tlcw|{{BASEPAGENAME}} | id{{=}} <var>ID</var> }}
:To link a character, use {{Tl|IMDb character}}.
:To link an award, use {{Tl|IMDb award}}.


==Usage==
To have the link text be other than the article name, use second parameter. This is necessary when adding an IMDb link to an article about somebody or something other than the linked person (for example, if you include the IMDb link for [[Bette Davis]] in the [[Joan Crawford]] article, you must specify Bette Davis's name as the text for the link).
{{See also|Wikipedia:External links/Perennial websites#IMDb}}
* {{tlcw|{{BASEPAGENAME}} | <var>ID</var> | <var>NAME</var> }}
* {{tlcw|{{BASEPAGENAME}} | id{{=}} <var>ID</var> | name{{=}} <var>NAME</var> }}


The '''required''' parameter is the ID number. The template then uses the article title as the [[anchor text]]:
The parameter {{Para|section}} can be set to <code>award</code> (alternatively <code>awards</code>) or <code>bio</code> (alternatively <code>biography</code>) to link to the awards or biography section for that person.
<pre>
* {{tlcw|{{BASEPAGENAME}} | <var>ID</var> | <var>NAME</var> | section{{=}} <var>SECTION</var> }}
* {{IMDb name |ID}}
* {{tlcw|{{BASEPAGENAME}} | id{{=}} <var>ID</var> | name{{=}} <var>NAME</var> | section{{=}} <var>SECTION</var>}}
* {{IMDb name | id = ID }}
</pre>
To have the link text be other than the article name, use second parameter:
<pre>
* {{IMDb name |ID |Name}}
* {{IMDb name | id = ID | name = Name}}
</pre>


This can be used when the Wikipedia page name contains disambiguation brackets; for example at the page [[John Smith (actor)]] use <code><nowiki>{{IMDb name|0808774|John Smith}}</nowiki></code> to have "{{IMDb name|0808774|John Smith}}" rather than "{{IMDb name|0808774|John Smith (actor)}}". This is also necessary should you need to add an IMDb link to an article about somebody or something other than the linked person (for example, if you include the IMDb link for [[Bette Davis]] in the [[Joan Crawford]] article, you must specify Bette Davis's name as the text for the link using this option).
The ID number may be omitted if the article's [[Wikidata]] item includes property {{Property|345}}.
* {{tlcw|{{BASEPAGENAME}}}}
* {{tlcw|{{BASEPAGENAME}} | name{{=}} <var>NAME</var> }}
* {{tlcw|{{BASEPAGENAME}} | name{{=}} <var>NAME</var> | section{{=}} <var>SECTION</var>}}


The parameter {{Para|section}} can be set to <code>award</code> (alternatively <code>awards</code>) or <code>bio</code> (alternatively <code>biography</code>) to link to the awards or biography section for that person.

This template uses the Wikidata property:

This template is used to generate an external link to a web page for a person in the Internet Movie Database. It is intended for use in the external links section of an article.

For a work (film/movie, TV or Web program/series, video game, etc.), use {{IMDb title}}.
For a specific TV episode or Web series episode, use {{IMDb episode}}.
For an episode list, use {{IMDb episodes}}.
For a company, use {{IMDb company}}.
For an event, use {{IMDb event}}.

Usage

If the subject of the Wikipedia article is the same as the IMDb page, only ID number is required. The template then uses the Wikipedia article name as the anchor text.

  • {{IMDb name | ID }}
  • {{IMDb name | id= ID }}

To have the link text be other than the article name, use second parameter. This is necessary when adding an IMDb link to an article about somebody or something other than the linked person (for example, if you include the IMDb link for Bette Davis in the Joan Crawford article, you must specify Bette Davis's name as the text for the link).

  • {{IMDb name | ID | NAME }}
  • {{IMDb name | id= ID | name= NAME }}

The parameter |section= can be set to award (alternatively awards) or bio (alternatively biography) to link to the awards or biography section for that person.

  • {{IMDb name | ID | NAME | section= SECTION }}
  • {{IMDb name | id= ID | name= NAME | section= SECTION }}

The ID number may be omitted if the article's Wikidata item includes property (P345).

  • {{IMDb name}}
  • {{IMDb name | name= NAME }}
  • {{IMDb name | name= NAME | section= SECTION }}
