Usage
For use in articles about comic book series, this template links to the corresponding article on the Grand Comics Database.
Instructions
- Go to comics.org and search for the series you want.
- Click on the link for the series' page. Be sure you're getting the correct series.
- The page URL should look like http://www.comics.org/series/#######/, where "#######" indicates a number.
- Copy ONLY the number.
- Add the text:
- {{GCD|seriesid=#######|title=Title}}
- where "#######" is the number you've copied, and "Title" is the series title.
Example
- If you search at GCD for "New Avengers", you will reach this page: http://www.comics.org/series/12464/
- Copy "12464" and then write:
- {{GCD|seriesid=12464|title=New Avengers}}
The result is: '.
Because this will most likely go into an external links section, you should add an asterisk (*)before the template text to include it as a list item.
