Template:File info

Info

This template should be used for all files on the "Files:" namespace. It presents some information about the file, both in terms of content and metadata. It also automatically categorizes the image.

Parameters

Parameter	Mandatory	Default	Purpose	Detailed description
summary	Yes	File summary		A brief explanation of what the image or sound is; what it contains, and what it is used for.
type	Yes	Content type		What type of content this is. This will automatically determine some other things. Can be one of the following: screenshot: Media screenshot. boxart: Box art. concept: Concept art. texture: Game texture. audio: Game audio. logo: Logo. map: Map, either in-game or fan-made. icon: Icon. real: Real world image. user: User image.

Can be one of the following: p1 - p3: Pikmin to Pikmin 3. npcp1 - npcp2: The New Play Control! titles. pa: Pikmin Adventure. ssbb: Super Smash Bros. Brawl. ssb4: Super Smash Bros. for 3DS and Wii U. psm: Pikmin Short Movies. other: A non-Pikmin game.
location	No	Location		In-game location that this file pertains to. Write the full name of the area, but if it's in a cave or in a level exclusive to an alternative game mode, do not fill this in.
source	No	File source		If this file was created by the user, type "self". If it was obtained off a website, type its URL here, formatted or not.
license	No	License		If it cannot be deduced automatically from the content type, the license must be added here. This is the same parameter you would feed into {{license}}.
nocat	No	No categorization		If this has a value, like "y", then the template will not automatically categorize the file.
