Parameters

All attributes are optional.

Parameter	Explanation
name	Common name of the comedian (defaults to article name if left blank; provide birth_name (below) if different from name).
image	Image name: abc.jpg, xpz.png, 123.gif, etc. If an image is desired but not available, one may add "yes" to the "needs-photo" section of the Template:WPBiography on the talkpage. If no image is available yet, do not use an image placeholder.
image_size	Size to display image: 200px (set width), x300px (set height), or 200x300px (max width & max height). This defaults to frameless (default is 220px, but logged in users can change this by clicking on "my preferences" and adjusting thumbnail size) if empty or omitted. This parameter should not normally need to be set.
alt	Alt text for image, for visually impaired readers. See WP:ALT.
caption	Caption for image, if needed. Try to include date of photo and the photographer.
pseudonym	Any of the comedian's aliases or pen names.
native_name	Name in local language. If more than one, separate using {{Plain list}}
native_name_lang	ISO 639-2 code e.g. "fr" for French. If more than one, use {{lang}} instead
birth_name	Name at birth; only use if different from name.
birth_date	Date of birth: {{birth date and age}} (if living) or {{birth date}} (if dead). See Template:Birth date and age/doc for details on usage. If only a year of birth is known, or age as of a certain date, consider using {{birth year and age}} or {{birth based on age as of date}}.
birth_place	Place of birth: city, administrative region, sovereign state. Use the name of the birthplace at the time of birth, e.g.: Saigon (prior to 1976), Ho Chi Minh City (post 1976). Do not use a flag template.
death_date	Date of death: {{death date and age}} (if birth date is known) or {{death date}} (if birth date unknown). See Template:Death date/doc for details on usage. If exact dates are unknown, consider using {{death year and age}}.
death_place	Place of death: city, administrative region, sovereign state. Note: Do not use a flag template. Use the name of the deathplace at the time of death, e.g.: Saigon (prior to 1976), Ho Chi Minh City (post 1976)
resting_place	Location of grave, ashes, etc.
resting_place_coordinates	Precise coordinates of grave, etc.

Use the format 1950–2000, or 1970–present if the comedian is still active (note the use of an en dash, not hyphen). If no dates of birth and/or death are known for the comedian, only a floruit date range, this parameter can be used for it. If approximate (circa) dates are known for either or both, put them in the birth_date and death_date parameters.
employer
genre	The comedian's general comedic genre. For instance, Jon Stewart would be political satire; George Carlin would be black humor.
subject	The most frequent topics of the comedian's comedy. For instance, Dave Chappelle would be racism/race relations; Stephen Colbert would be politics/the Christian Right; Cheech Marin would be race and drugs.
influences	The names of comedians who influenced his/her work. Note: it is possible for a comedian to both influence and be influenced by another comedian, if they are colleagues or are contemporaneous.
