Template:Example files
Revision as of 06:54, 4 April 2009 by imported>Flopsy Mopsy and Cottonmouth (That's not an image.)
| There are several images named "example": Image:Example.jpg, Image:Example.png, Image:Example.gif and Image:Example.svg. None of these images should be used in articles. The JPG image is the example inserted when a user clicks the "embedded file" button in the edit toolbar. Pages with that image left may be actively sought out and fixed. If you need a test image for permanent demonstration purposes, for instance in a template's documentation, then instead use for instance the PNG image. |
This is the {{example files}} notice box.
It can be placed on the "example" file's description pages and at the top of their talk pages. It explains how and when the example files should and shouldn't be used. At least the images have constantly been confusing people, so an explanation is needed.
