Template:Infobox media franchise/doc

Infobox media franchise is used to quickly list all the major creative works of a media franchise, as well as a franchise's creator(s), origins, and owner(s).

Usage
The infobox may be added by pasting the template as shown below into an article, typically at the top of an article above the lead section.

Parameters
''Note: Do not link to an article more than once in the infobox. All parameters are optional. See also MOS:FILM. For full details, see the TemplateData section below.''

It is recommended to list multiple works of a medium (e.g. films) using Plainlist, as the infobox will look cleaner without bullets.
