-Applies to [[Release]]s that are part of a [[Series]].
-'''When a release is one of a [[Series]] and are labeled as volumes, separate the [[Volume Number|VolumeNumber]] from the [[Main Title|MainTitle]] by a comma like so:'''
-:'''"''ReleaseTitle'', Volume 2"'''
-=Example=
-"''UK Space Techno, Volume 5''"
-"''Café del Mar, Volumen Cinco''"
-=Details=
-This guideline is a specification of the more general [[Series Number Style|SeriesNumberStyle]]. See that page for principles and details.
-VolumeNumberStyle can be combined with [[Disc Number Style|DiscNumberStyle]] like so:
-:'''"''ReleaseTitle'', Volume 3 (disc 2: ''DiscName'')"'''
-:'''"''ReleaseTitle'', Volume 1: ''VolumeName'' (disc 1: ''DiscName'')"'''
-Alternative names for volumes may be used, such as Tome, Book, Part, or their non-English equivalents.
-* Note that if the [[Main Title|MainTitle]] of a Release is just "''Volume 1''" or similar then this guideline should not apply!
-* Also note that the [[Abbreviation Style|AbbreviationStyle]] says that you should not use abbreviations in titles. So "Vol." should always be expanded to "Volume" (assuming the [[Release Language|ReleaseLanguage]] is English).  (but see below for discussion)
-* Also note that the [[Subtitle|SubTitle]] of a release of a series must be formatted according to [[Subtitle Style|SubTitleStyle]].
