Period[edit]

Why is there no period generated by |all_music=? InfiniteNexus (talk) 06:52, 14 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Because it usually implies that |all_lyrics= will be used as well, and this would require it to be followed by a comma. Richard3120 (talk) 20:43, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Then the template should be adjusted to recognize if |all_lyrics= is being used, and if not, automatically add a period. InfiniteNexus (talk) 23:00, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Pseudo-splitting total length[edit]

I've never seen this done with total_length=. Not really feeling it. Mac Dreamstate (talk) 19:49, 22 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Leave blanking only for interlude as uncredited songwriters/producers[edit]

I suddenly thinking about leave blanking only for interlude as uncredited songwriters/producers as seen on All for You (Janet Jackson album)#Track_listing. Has anyone comments? 113.210.105.214 (talk) 16:52, 28 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

In my opinion, all credited songwriters on any track should appear in track listings on Wikipedia. SaltieChips (talk) 16:38, 15 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Why present tense?[edit]

Re The value for this parameter is preceded by "All tracks are written by " or "All lyrics are written by " or "All music is composed by ", depending on the parameter that is used. Provide terminal punctuation and any references in the parameter value, if desired., why "is" and not "was"? Largoplazo (talk) 15:51, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Dark mode media query[edit]

According to the recommendations for night mode compatibility on MediaWiki, the class to style in the prefers-color-scheme media query should be skin-theme-clientpref-os instead of skin-theme-clientpref-night, is that correct? Strepulah (talk) 08:34, 5 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
