Template:Uses Wikidata

This is a version of Template:Infobox video game series which autofills the fields "Genres", "Publishers" and "Platforms" from Wikidata if they are omitted from the article (local values for the parameters override the Wikidata call).

The template was created as a proof-of-concept for autofilling infoboxes, per the discussion at Wikipedia talk:Wikidata/Archive 2 #Video game series.

The template calls Module:Wikidata.

Usage

Example
Copy the text below, paste it into any section of Assassin's Creed and preview it (please don't save!).
{{Infobox video game series/Wikidata
| image      = <!-- Commented out: [[image:Assassin's Creed cover.png]] -->
| caption    = [[DVD region code#Region_codes_and_countries|Region 1]] cover
}}

This produces the equivalent of:

Assassin's Creed
Genre(s)Action-adventure game
Publisher(s)Ubisoft
