Template documentation (for the above template, sometimes hidden or invisible)

Purpose

This license template records the description, source, author, notes, and optional image collections for media released under the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported license. Place it on the media's File page only when that license has been established by the source.

Usage

{{CC BY-NC-SA 3.0 image
|description=
|source=
|author=
|collection=
|notes=
}}

Parameters

Parameter Required Explanation
description Recommended Description of what the file shows. The value is displayed and stored in both Has description and Has caption. If omitted, the template displays a request to add a description.
source Required for a complete record Original source of the media and, where available, the page establishing its license. If omitted, the template displays a request to add a source.
author Required for attribution Creator or credited author. If omitted, the template displays a request to add an author.
collection No One or more image-collection names. Separate multiple values with semicolons. Each value is converted to lowercase and stored in Has image collection for collection galleries.
notes No Additional licensing, attribution, or provenance information. The Notes row appears only when this parameter has a value.

Collection behavior

The collection parameter connects a file to pages using Template:Gallery. Use stable subject names rather than descriptive prose.

{{CC BY-NC-SA 3.0 image
|description=Map of an example scene
|source=Original publication and license URL
|author=Creator name
|collection=Example scene;Maps
|notes=Additional attribution details
}}

Licensing note

Do not apply this template merely because a file is publicly accessible. Confirm that the copyright holder released the work under CC BY-NC-SA 3.0, preserve the source and attribution, and note any relevant modifications. The template identifies the recorded license; it does not independently verify permission.

The example is not rendered here because doing so would assign description and collection properties to the documentation page.
