# Decade Collections
|
|
|
|
The `decade` Default Metadata File is used to dynamically create collections based on the decades available in your library, sorted by critic rating to create a "best of <decade>"
|
|
|
|
**This file works with Movie Libraries, but has a TV Library [Counterpart](../show/decade).**

## Template Variables

Template Variables can be used to manipulate the file in various ways to slightly change how it works without having to make your own local copy.
|
|
|
