Template:Information



Usage
Disregard the default options and copy and paste the following code into the image description when uploading new images, and don't alter it.


 * The "attention" field will generally not be used on a new upload, except for Notorphan or No source.
 * The "description" field should be used for an accurate description of the file's contents, preferably with link(s) to its subject(s). This information should be listed whether or not the template is used.
 * The "source" field should list the specific source that the item comes from, with a link to it, and most of the time in italics. If the source is a website, the URL is mandatory. This information should be listed whether or not the template is used.
 * "Author" is an optional field for author/artist information.
 * "Filespecs" should be used to list specific information about any editing or processing the file has undergone -- this is critical for any image which has been modified from the original source. This information should be listed whether or not the template is used.
 * "Licensing" is an absolutely non-optional field which must be used to indicate the license, and "GFDL" or "public domain" licenses must not be used for anything copyrighted by Valve or an affiliate. Again, the copyright templates to be chosen can be found at Category:Copyright templates. Most of the time, the template used for the pictures seen on this wiki is Gamescreenshot, which is Fairuse by default. This information must be listed whether or not the template is used.
 * "Other versions" should be used to indicate when alternate but non-duplicate versions or formats of a file are available.
