Template:IMDb event

The required parameter is just the ID number (for backward compatibility, the parameter can be named |id=) and the template then uses the article title as the anchor text:

• {{IMDb event|ID}}

To have the link text be other than the article name, use second parameter (for backward compatibility, it can be named |event=):

• {{IMDb event|ID|Event}}

You can also include the year of an event using |year= (the event name is optional):

• {{IMDb event|ID|Event|year=2019}}

1. Copy and paste one of the options above into the article
2. Go to https://www.imdb.com and search for the event you want (say, MTV Movie Awards)
3. You then reach the page with URL looking like https://www.imdb.com/event/ev0000453/ (or other 7-digit number)
4. Copy only that number (here, "0005073"), omitting the "ev" but keep all the leading zeros (though IMDb currently seems to be able to add them as needed)
5. Replace "ID" in the template code with the number
   1. For the first option above, you'll then have

      * {{IMDb event|0000453}} resulting in:

      • IMDb eventatIMDb

      Note that the link text is the same as the title of the page the template is used on; outside the page "MTV Movie Awards", use the second option:

   2. Replace "ID" with the number and "Event" with "MTV Movie Awards"

      * {{IMDb event|0000453|MTV Movie Awards}} results in:

      • MTV Movie AwardsatIMDb
