This is a template to generate links to Internet Broadway Database. This template should be used exclusively for PEOPLE.

If you need to link a show, use Template:IBDB title instead.

Instructions

  1. Go to ibdb.com and search for the person you want
  2. Click on the correct link to go to the person's page. Be sure you're getting the correct person.
  3. The page URL should look like www.ibdb.com/person.asp?ID=#####, where "#####" indicates a number.
  4. Add to the external links section the text:
    {{IBDB name|id=#####|name=Name}}
    where "#####" is the number you've copied, and "Name" is the person's name.

Example

  1. Searching for "Jerry Orbach", you'll reach this page:
    http://www.ibdb.com/person.asp?ID=55157
  2. Copy "55157" and then write:
    {{IBDB name|id=55157|name=Jerry Orbach}}

The result is

Jerry Orbach at the Internet Broadway DatabaseScript error: No such module "EditAtWikidata".Template:WikidataCheck
