Template:Volumes

Documentation

THIS TEMPLATE is to be used on a music publication page, where more than one Edition, Volume, or Part exist. It has up to 212 parameters, for up to 70 volumes, editions, or parts. If this template is used, it will automatically produce the template {{PubDatePlace}} for each volume.

WHEN THIS TEMPLATE IS USED on a music publication page, PLEASE DO NOT ALSO USE template {{PubDatePlace}} – template {{Volumes}} now incorporates {{PubDatePlace}} in it. Please put details of publication in the comments fields of the {{Volumes}} template.

This template is designed for use with Template {{MultiPubList}}; when the two are used together, and with "vol=" in the {{Pub}} template on all work pages, several tables are produced, one for each volume. For examples, see Musica Transalpina or Heinrich Schütz: Sämtliche Werke.
