Description of suggested change:
I would like to create an "albums" parameter for songs which appear on multiple albums. Examples of pages which could use this parameter:
Muñecas (song),
Outside (Calvin Harris song).

Muñecas has a workaround: [[Cupido (album)|Cupido]] ''and'' [[Hiroquest 2: Double Helix]]. Would you want only the word 'album' in the infobox be changed to a plural if an |albums= parameter is used?
SWinxy (

Yes, perhaps an ''and'' would default to a plural.

That is not what was suggested by Swinxy. The suggestion is that |album= works as normal with Album, but |albums=Cupido and Hiroquest 2: Double Helix will change the label to Albums — Martin (

Deactivating edit request pending a reply. In any event this would need to be sandboxed and tested before being implemented.

Some instances are not generating short descriptions

Abhiramakella: I think this would be impossible to do – many songs change key throughout the song, and in addition, different versions of the song are often in different keys.

Remove unused capitalized aliases

|Released=, |Type=, |Artist= – these aliases are no longer used anywhere
[1] and are not needed in the code.

Done. Those braces are pretty nested, and the template has many parameter checks, so let me know if I missed anything. –
