Region Certification Certified units/sales
Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

This template is part of a set of templates used for creating certification tables for albums, singles, etc.

Note that WP:ALBUM/CERT recommends the creation of a table only when an album has achieved multiple certifications.

If one wants to add more columns, one can create the top and the bottom on their own and only use the entry template.

Parameters

  • The table includes either two or three columns depending on the variable |format=. If |format=3col, the default value, the columns are region, award, and the amount sold/shipped for the certification. The third column can be replaced by a sales figure from another source. If|format=2col or |format=2colthin, the columns are region and award. In the latter case the region column uses a thinner form.
  • The Top template receives a |caption= parameter which should be used to add a caption to the table.

Usage examples

The following is a short usage example. See the documentation for the entry template for more details.
