Would need adding to the GCD Wiki:

Extension:ParserFunctions
(https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ParserFunctions)
&
Extension:Variables
(https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Variables)


4.  Optional image parameters; will override default height constraint of 32px, so you will need to re-specify like "x20px" (height constraint) or "30px" (width constraint) or 30x20px (width x height constraints). To add additional parameters, use {{!}} to escape the pipe character to separate image parameters. See example below with the thumbnail (note: do not use thumbnail or float parameters with in-line images).

    s: Switch sides. This moves the text to the right side of the icon. Useful for aligning the image.





Usage: {{Series|NNN|Series Title}} or {{Series|id=NNN|title=Series Title}} will link to http://www.comics.org/series/NNN/ with title "Series Title". 

Example: {{Series|97|Action Comics}}
[http://www.comics.org/series/{{{1|{{{id}}}}}}/ {{{2|{{{title}}}}}}]

Usage: {{Issue|NNN|Issue Title}} or {{Issue|id=NNN|title=Issue Title}} will link to http://www.comics.org/issue/NNN/ with title "Issue Title".

Example: {{Issue|293|Action Comics #1}}
