===Fields===
When using the template, it is not necessary to delete any fields that are not being used. Most fields are optional; if no data is supplied, the row will simply not appear once the page is saved.

====Producer====
The name of the [[Main title|title's]] producer in plain text only. Logos and other graphics are to be avoided in this field in accordance with [[WP:ACCESS]] and [[WP:FAIR]]. Use an internal link or [[Wikipedia:Piped link|piped]] internal link to the main article about the producer. For help with internal links, see the [[Wikipedia:Editing FAQ#How do I make links?|Editing FAQ]]. This field is mandatory.

====Image====
An image of the act, sufficiently clear for display at 200 pixels' width. Set to only the image name, e.g. '''Example.png''', not Image:Example.png or <nowiki>[[File:Example.png|200px|abc]]</nowiki>. Images used should ideally be free images; that is, not subject to copyright restrictions. If no free image is available it may be possible to use a non-free image under a claim of fair use, provided the image meets Wikipedia's non-free content criteria (for more information see [[WP:NFCC]] and [[WP:NFC]]).

====Alt====
Alt text for the image, as per [[WP:ALT]]. This is for describing the image to people who cannot see the image, and typically should not be the same as the caption.

====Caption====
Caption for the image to be displayed. Do not link years in the caption e.g. '''do not''' link <nowiki>[[2007]]</nowiki>.

====Types of releases====
There are individual fields for a variety of release types. (studio albums, internet albums, live albums, compilations, video albums, music videos, tribute albums, EPs, singles, b-sides, soundtracks karaoke, holiday albums and box sets. In each field place the number of each type that the producer has released. Use only numeric values in these fields. For other types of releases, see "Advanced usage" below.

===Advanced usage===

====Optional labels====
:''Please use these functions sparingly.''
As not all music producers are the same, some will have the need to have different labels for their discography, such as a collaboration or unreleased songs. To list these options, use {{para|Option}} and {{para|Option name}} and up to six additional options, as in the example below.
