Jump to navigation Jump to search

This license template is a shorthand for {{Free screenshot|license={{GPL}}}} and used for MediaWiki screenshots, not to be confused with {{Wikimedia-screenshot}}. Note: this does not categorize the image as a MediaWiki screenshot, so you should probably add a category such as Category:Screenshots of MediaWiki extensions along with this template.

Usage

{{MediaWiki screenshot}}

Template parameters

Button text
<templatedata>JSON</templatedata> ./. {{TemplateBox}}
TemplateData

TemplateData is a way to store information about template parameters (the description of those and of the whole template) for both humans and machines. It is used by VisualEditor and possibly other tools like Upload Wizard.


Existing template documentation
At Wikimedia Commons, it is recommended to use {{TemplateBox}} with either ‎useTemplateData=1 or ‎useTemplateData=only on the ‎/doc subpage and transcluding it with {{Documentation}} into the template. ‎<nowiki>-tags can be wrapped around the arguments, if required, to avoid templates being expanded.

Newly created template documentation and imports
Another option, especially for imported templates, or for users with JSON experience, is placing raw ‎<templatedata>-tags into the Wikitext of the template, as described in various Wikipediae.

Discussion
There is an ongoing discussion about that matter. Feel invited to comment if you are experienced in either way, your time permits and if you like to share your opinion or to make a suggestion.
