Template:Art

{{Art}} is a template for crediting illustrations. Its purpose is to ensure images are credited properly, not merely attributed to the pencilers (as has been common practice).

A typical comic scan might be credited like this:

{{art
|pencils=[[Andrew Wildman]]
|inks=[[Stephen Baskerville]]
|colors=[[Nelson Yomtov]]
|letters=[[Rick Parker]]
|script=[[Simon Furman]]
|from=the [[The Transformers (Marvel comic)|Marvel ''Generation 1'' comic]] issue "[[A Savage Circle]]"
}}

From the Marvel Generation 1 comic issue "A Savage Circle",


You can use as many or as few of those categories as you wish. For example, letters and script would not apply to a scan with no dialogue or narration. Also, sometimes a single person has performed multiple duties, in which case other parameters are available.

For a picture drawn by only one artist and colored by another, use line-art:

{{art
|line-art=[[Geoff Senior]]
|colors=[[Sarra Mossoff]]
}}


For a picture created entirely by one artist, use simply art:

{{art
|art=[[Matt Kuphaldt]]
}}


If you need to apply a credit that is not included in this template, you can create one through the parameter other:

{{art
|other='''Breakdowns:''' [[Don Perlin]]
}}


If you don't know who performed a certain duty, fill the parameter with "unknown" and set the help parameter to "true" or "yes". This will add the image to Category: Images with insufficient attribution, asking others to help properly identify it:

{{art
|line-art=[[Don Figueroa]]
|colors=''unknown''
|help=yes
}}
