Use this template for bands. It will automatically add the page to the 'Bands' category and the 'Notable Bands' category, if appropriate. You can add the following fields:
- years_active: When the band was active
- main_songwriter: If there was one person who did most of the songwriting, you can add it here
- genres: Which genres the band did mostly
- see_also: Other bands that were related to this one
- known_for: Why this band was important
- notable_for: Use this in place of known_for to automatically add the band to 'Notable Bands'.
Here's an example of what you'd stick into a band's page to put them in a template:
{{Band |genres=[[Hardcore Punk|Punk]], [[Easy Listening]], [[Grindcore]] |years_active=1995-2002 |main_songwriter=Dave |notable_for=Last band in town to release an 8-track tape }}
If you have any other ideas for fields, email Tjernobyl.
