Yes indeed.

Concert:PF1980-08-07
Concert:RW1980-08-07
Concert:DG1980-08-07


Obviously they played as a band on the date above but it would work like that yes!

I just added pages on the Pink Floyd Timeline ready for the history of Pink Floyd project. Added the calendar months to each of the pages too!

Timeline:1943 for example.

Perhaps in work I will add each of the concert dates to it from here...


http://www.neptunepinkfloyd.co.uk/wiki/ ... _%26_Tours


Any assistance from people on the forum would be great. I am thinking add the concert to the appropriate timeline year page and month and add the date of the concert which will be linked to a page for each concert. For example

1980
...
...
August
...
...
*[[Concert:PF1980-08-08|8 August 1980]] - Concert Details - Some descriptive words perhaps of anything significant about the conert.

The wiki code to produce the album info box is contained in a template called "Album infobox". This is a snippet of code from the start of the On An Island article - just replace the variables with what's relevant for the album you're working on.

Code: Select all

{| border=1 align=right
|
{{Album infobox |
  Name        = On An Island |
  Type        = Album LP/CD |
  Artist      = David Gilmour |
  Cover       = DG cover 72dpi.jpg |
  Genre       = Rock |
  Background  = Orange |
  Released    = March 6 [[Pink Floyd Timeline#2006|2006]] |
  Recorded    = [[Astoria]], [[Abbey Road Studios|Abbey Road]],  British Grove, Gallery Studio and at "home", [[Pink Floyd Timeline#2002|2002]] - [[Pink Floyd Timeline#2006|2006]] |
  Length      = 51 min 41 sec |
  Label       = [[EMI Records]] |
  Producer    = David Gilmour, Phil Manzanera and Chris Thomas |
  Reviews     = [[All Music Guide]] [http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=10:tdja7ia6g77r link] |
  Last album  = ''[[About Face]]''<br>([[Pink Floyd Timeline#1984|1984]]) |
  This album  = '''''On An Island'''''<br>([[Pink Floyd Timeline#2006|2006]]) |
  Next album  =  |}}
|}
Hope this helps you. Remember you can check the wiki code of other pages by going to 'edit', but not making any changes.
