Revision as of 17:49, 11 September 2009

This template shows up to 30 images in an array. The number of images per row is based upon the width specified and the width of the screen, which allows greater flexibility than the <gallery> tag.

For style guidelines about where galleries are appropriate, see WP:IG.

This template is similar to {{Image gallery}}, except it requires a "File:" or "Image:" prefix for image names, whereas {{Image gallery}} does not; and it uses a different syntax for alt text. Both templates use {{Gallery/aux}} to format individual images.

Parameters

Required

|Image|Caption
Specify one of these lines for each image. Image is the image name (with a File: or Image: prefix). Caption is the caption; see WP:CAPTION. If no such lines are present, a gallery with a single question-mark image is produced. There is currently a limit of 30 such lines.

Optional

title
The gallery's title.
width
(default 180) Maximum width and height of each image.
lines
(default 2) The number of text lines needed for the largest caption. Blank lines are appended to smaller captions. A caption that does not fit is cut off.
alt#
with # being a number between 1 and 30. These allow you to specify a description of the image for the visual impaired. For more details read WP:ALT.

Example

Template:Pre2
