Template:TCMDb title displays an external link to a web page for a film title at the TCM Movie Database (TCMDb). It is intended for use in the external links section of an article.

Turner Classic Movies (TCM) maintains its own comprehensive database of motion picture titles that are not limited to the film libraries that TCM owns, and includes links by which a user can suggest to TCM that they schedule any given title for viewing.

This template is designed for links to film titles; to a link to a person use {{TCMDb name}} instead.

Usage

Unnamed parameters: {{TCMDb title | ID }}; {{TCMDb title | ID | TITLE }}; {{TCMDb title | ID | TITLE | DESCRIPTION }}

Named parameters: {{TCMDb title | id= ID }}; {{TCMDb title | id= ID | title= TITLE }}; {{TCMDb title | id= ID | title= TITLE | description= DESCRIPTION }}

Using Wikidata property P2631: {{TCMDb title}}; {{TCMDb title | title= TITLE }}; {{TCMDb title | title= TITLE | description= DESCRIPTION }}

Instructions

Visit the TCM Movie Database.
In the keyword search field, type in the title you want to link to, and click "Search."
TCMDb will show a disambiguation page showing all titles that match your search words. Click on the title you want (make sure you have the correct year of release!).
The page URL should look like this:

http://www.tcm.com/tcmdb/title/######/film-name

Copy the ID number that appears after /title/ in the URL.
In the article you are editing, type {{TCMDb title | id= ###### | title= Film Name }}.
