Parameters

Parameter	Use
{{Graphic novel list/header}} All of this template's parameters are optional.
episodes	Only use one of these parameters! - These parameters both do the same thing and are used to place the list of {{Graphic novel list}} templates within it. See the useage at the top of the documentation.
1
OneLanguage	Values: "yes" (case-sensitive) When this parameter is set to "yes", this template will produce a three- or four-column view, ideal for displaying information when only the original language has a release. Setting this to anything else or omitting it entirely will produce a four- or five-column view, ideal for displaying information about original-language and licensed-language releases.
Language	Values: any This is the language of origin. In three-column views, this defaults to nothing; in five-column views, this defaults to "Original".
SecondLanguage	Values: any This is the licensed language. This displays only in five-column views, where it defaults to "English".
Width	Values: an integer number greater than zero or a percentage from 0% to 100% Determines the width of the table. Defaults to "98%".
LineColor	Values: a hex color value of the form "RGB" or "RRGGBB" To separate the header from the main body of the table, a three-pixel colored border is added to the bottom; this determines the color of the border. Defaults to "CCF".
WithTitle	Values: "yes" (case-sensitive) When this parameter is set to "yes", this template will produce a four-column view, ideal for displaying information when the individual volumes have names. Setting this to anything else or omitting it entirely will produce a three- or five-column view, ideal for displaying information about volumes without names.
Clear	Values: "no" When this parameter is set, this template will not automatically clear floating tables and divs (this effect can also be achieved by setting a custom width).
{{Graphic novel list}}
VolumeNumber	Values: any valid HTML ID (A-Z, a-z, 0-9, _, -, :, .), usually numeric A volume number. This parameter also creates an HTML anchor which can be linked to from other pages, prefixed with "vol"; for example, [[List of chapters#vol01]].
Series (Optional)	Values: any valid HTML ID A non-printing parameter which is prefixed to the HTML anchor ID defined by VolumeNumber; for example, if defined as "alt" with a VolumeNumber of "02", the anchor becomes "#altvol02".
RelDate OriginalRelDate (Optional)	Values: any, usually a date The release date of the original-language work. Both parameters define the same thing. If more than one release date is necessary, separate each with <br />.
LicensedRelDate (Optional)	Values: any, usually a date The release date of the licensed-language work. If more than one release date is necessary, separate each with <br />. If both LicensedRelDate and LicensedISBN are empty, the template will yield output appropriate for one-language view. Manually insert an em-dash (—) in LicensedRelDate (but leave LicensedISBN empty) to overcome this, if a two-language view is desired.
ISBN OriginalISBN (Optional)	Values: a valid ISBN-10 or ISBN-13 number The ISBN of the original-language work. This should be only the number; the template prefixes ISBN automatically, to link it with Special:Booksources.
LicensedISBN (Optional)	Values: a valid ISBN-10 or ISBN-13 number The ISBN of the licensed-language work. As with ISBN/OriginalISBN, this should only be the number. If both LicensedRelDate and LicensedISBN are empty, the template will yield output appropriate for one-language view. Manually insert an em-dash (—) in LicensedRelDate (but leave LicensedISBN empty) to overcome this, if a two-language view is desired.
ChapterList ChapterListCol1 (Optional)	Values: a formatted list of chapters A list of chapters from the volume, with specific chapter names in quotation marks. If ChapterListCol2 is defined, this will occupy just over half its row; otherwise, it will occupy an entire row.
ChapterListCol2 (Optional)	Values: a formatted list of chapters A second list of chapters from the volume, with specific chapter names in quotation marks. If ChapterList or ChapterListCol1 is defined, this will occupy just under half its row; otherwise, it will not be displayed.
Summary (Optional)	Values: any A summary of the volume. Occupies an entire row.
LineColor (Optional)	Values: a hex color value of the form "RGB" or "RRGGBB" In a table containing a chapter list and/or a summary, three-pixel colored borders are added to the bottoms of individual volume releases to separate them; this determines the color of the border. Defaults to "CCF".
OriginalTitle (Optional)	Values: any The original language title of the volume. Use only if transliteration is required. If all title parameters are empty, the template will yield output appropriate for three- or four-column view.
TranslitTitle (Optional)	Values: any The original language title of the volume, transliterated if necessary. If all title parameters are empty, the template will yield output appropriate for three- or four-column view.
Title LicensedTitle (Optional)	Values: any The title of the volume in its licensed release. If all title parameters are empty, the template will yield output appropriate for three- or four-column view.
SublistOf (Optional)	Values: any If this matches the name of the page the table is displayed on, for example through transclusion, chapter lists and summaries are hidden.
{{Graphic novel list/footer}} This template has no parameters.

Notes

• ISBNs may be given in either unhyphenated format (for example, 9781000000009) or hyphenated format (978-1-00-000000-9). If converting an unhyphenated ISBN to a hyphenated one, you can use the reference list of group and publisher numbers, provided by the International ISBN Agency, or one of several online converters.
• Apostrophes in the |SublistOf= parameter need to be replaced by ' due to a bug in the underlying software.
