Halopedia:Layout guide/Music
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
This subpage provides guidance on articles covering the subject of "music".
Summary
In general, there needs to be an introduction in the article. What should be covered in the article is the title of the music, the length and a general overview of the production of the music (i.e. composition, production, instruments). Also, where available, do include a list of appearances in a form of a paragraph after the introduction. At the end of the article, do include the Soundtrack template and amend the fields as appropriate to the article.
For articles on soundtracks, do include the release date as well as any special versions of the soundtrack, and use Soundtrack infobox. Do note, however, that if there is a list of special versions of the soundtrack and each version has their own list of special tracks, make use of Soundtrack List template and not Soundtrack infobox.
Articles on individual tracks should use Music infobox as an introductory template.
Embedding videos and linking videos
In the past, it was considered proper to provide an embedded Youtube video in the article. This no longer seems to be the case as these Youtube videos are removed/became unavailable due to copyright takedowns. As such, it is no longer necessary for editors to include an embedded video in articles. Similar applies to video links.
