Infobox writer may be used to summarize information about a person who is a writer/author (includes screenwriters).

{{Infobox person}}; other infoboxes there can be found in Category:People and person infobox templates.

Syntax

The infobox may be added by pasting the template as shown below into an article. All fields are optional. Any unused parameter names can be left blank or omitted.

Microformat

The HTML mark up produced by this template includes an hCard microformat, which makes the person's details parsable by computers, either acting automatically to catalogue article across Wikipedia, or via a browser tool operated by a reader, to (for example) add the subject to an address book. For more information about the use of microformats on Wikipedia, please see the microformat project.

Date-of-birth ("bday") parameters will only be included in the microformat if

{{Birth date}} or

{{Birth date and age}} are used in the infobox.

hCard uses HTML classes including:

• adr
• bday
• county-name
• fn (required)
• honorific-prefix
• honorific-suffix
• label
• locality
• nickname
• note
• org
• role
• vcard

Please do not rename or remove these classes.
