Simple right? The same exact logic applies to the three other URL types we mentioned. By default, {{tlc|Spotify}} appears as a small thumbnail-sized object, aligned to the right side of the page.

:<tt>280</tt> is, of course, preferable, as it takes up less space on the page. Take caution in using these larger Spotify embeds, not to take away too much from space for content.

The {{spotify}} template creates Spotify embeds on articles. Usage is simple. Spotify URLs are typically split into six types:

  • artist
  • album
  • track
  • playlist
  • episode
  • show

Currently, playlist, episode and show do not work. Support may be added in the future. Each of these will be followed by a long string of gibberish.

Let's consider Jubilee as our primary example here. You can easily extract the information you need from either the URI (spotify:album:2KavEgxLOcjbZq8OqoFiMD) or from a simple URL (https://open.spotify.com/album/2KavEgxLOcjbZq8OqoFiMD).

  • {{spotify|album=5nuQd8ibwND43GAVP9FT0B}} will generate the Spotify embed seen on the right.

Simple right? The same exact logic applies to the other URL types we mentioned. By default, {{Spotify}} appears as an floating player aligned to the right side of the page.

They can also be aligned to the left side instead.

align=left produces such a left-aligned Spotify object.

{{spotify|album=62Pk4ZZI82TmstwutgjPod|align=left}}

Spotify is not available in quite all countries, and not all users will have an account to listen with on the page directly.
