Template:Byline/doc

The {{byline}} template is used to mark up a byline when a newspaper article is transcribed.

If a second unnamed parameter is provided, it is rendered as a sub-byline.

Parameters

Parameter	Default	Description
align	center	Horizontal alignment. Expected values are center and left (case-insensitive).
bold	true	Controls whether the byline is rendered in bold. This parameter is parsed by {{boolean}}, so any value understood by that template can be used.
sc	false	Controls whether the byline is rendered in small caps. As above, this parameter is parsed by {{boolean}}. If this is true, bold will be set to false by default.
