===Parameter notes===

====Common elements====
* Most of the parameters are designed only to show in the infobox if something is entered. They can be left in the template and empty if the item does not pertain to the article or if the information is not known at the time the template is added.
* The '''name''' field is an exception. If left empty the infobox will not generate a title. If the title for the infobox is the same as the title of the article, '''name''' can either be deleted or commented out. The later is preferable since the name of the article, or the preferred name of the infobox may change.
* For multiple items in one field, '''separate each with <nowiki><br /></nowiki>'''.
*:: ''Example:'' creators=Stan Lee<nowiki><br /></nowiki>Jack Kirby
* Placing images:
** '''image''' which is just the filname of the image. The template will add the markup to show the image.
**:: ''Example:'' image= example.jpg
** '''image_size''' which is the ''width'' the image will display at. The template will only accept a number here. If left empty or if a string (such as "225px") is entered, the image will default to 250px wide.
*** If you find the image to be too tall, reduce the size below 250px.
*** The parameter is capped at maximum width of 250. Entering values grater than this will result in the default setting being used.
*** The image will also cap at 450 in height.
** '''alt''' needs to be updated with the "text alternative" of the image to keep in line with [[Wikipedia:Alternative text for images]]. This is ''not'' the same as the caption. It should also be kept short, but needs to be descriptive of the image.
** '''caption''' will appear below the image. Keep it short, but indicate the original source published source of the image and the artist(s).
**:: ''Example:'' A comic book issue cover would be captioned as "''Wolverine'' vol 2, #17. Art by John Byrne."

====Specific elements====
* '''origtitle''' is the original title
** Chinese: At {{tl|Infobox manhua}} this is used to implement the "[[hanzi]]" parameter, along with "'''lang'''=zh" and "'''zh'''=y"
** Korean: At {{tl|Infobox manhwa}} this is used to implement the "[[hangul]]" parameter, along with "'''lang'''=ko" and "'''ko'''=y"
* '''romanized''' is the Chinese or Korean title rendered in Roman characters.
* '''genre''' is generally not a field for keying, but a set of logical fields which relate to the major genre(s) that the title uses for its stories.
<br />If more than one genre is appropriate, adding '''<code>|multigenre = y</code>''' will allow for the genres to all show in the infobox, but the alphabetically first genre will need to use '''<code>first</code>''' to add it and not have "''', '''" precede the text.<br />The currently supported genres are listed [[#Genre list|here]].
* '''author''' lists the author or authors of the series.
* '''illustrator''' lists artist(s) that provide the illustrations for the series. This is only used in cases where the illustrator(s) are not the same as the author(s).
* All of the publisher fields follow a convention of including {{tl|Flag icon}} using the country of origin preceding the publisher(s).
* '''publisher_en''' lists the publishers of English language editions of the series.
* '''publisher_other''' lists publishers of non-English language editions of the series. This does not include the original publisher.
** '''''Note:''''' The list '''publisher_other''' generates will be in a "pull down" list in the infobox, so they will not be initially visible.
* '''demographic''' lists the target audience of the series. Since the articles using this template are not Japanese publications, please do not use Japanese terms in this field.
* The '''magazine''' is where the series was first published. This field also follows the convention of using {{tl|Flag icon}}.
* '''first''' and '''last''' are the years when the series started and ended. '''last''' is optional. Months associated with each year should be specified using '''firstmo''' and '''lastmo'''.
* '''volumes''' is the number of volumes the series has been collected into.
* '''chapter_list''' is the list section of the article, or the separate list article, detailing the collected volumes. This creates a link to that section or article. The link will show as the contents of '''chapter_list''' unless something is entered at '''volume'''.
* '''related''' is the type(s) of other media adaptations of the series.
* '''content''' is a list of the adaptations by title.
* '''altcat'''
** "Star Trek comics" will set the Adventure and Sci-fi genres, and add ''[[Star Trek]]'' to the adapatations
** "Oz comics" will set the Fantasy genre, and add ''[[The Wonderful Wizard of Oz]]'' to the adapatations
