If your file is a derivative work of another file on Commons, use this template to link it.

The template automatically sets the following categories: Derivative versions

Usage

Uses Lua:

Module:Iteration

A namespace prefix (like "File:") does not disturb.

Examples

{{ Derived from | Example.jpg | by = {{u|example|'''original''' author}} }} gives
This file was derived from: Example.jpg by original author

{{ Derived from | Example.jpg | Beispiel.png | display = 16 }} gives
This file was derived from:

{{ Derived from | Example.jpg | . | .s | .g | display = 16 | opt = l }} ("l" for "left") gives
This file was derived from:

This template complements {{Derivative versions}}.

Template parameters

Parameter	Description	Default	Status
`1`	File name of the image (with or without namespace).	0	optional
`2, 3, ..., n`	names of more files; for each empty parameter, the name of parameter 1 is used	empty	optional
`lab`FFF or `l 0l1 ... ln`	(Global display label for files) normally not useful if more than 1 file individual parameter(s)	empty	optional
`disFFF` or `dl 0d1 ... dn`	Global pixel size value, to display the image individual size parameter{s}	empty	optional
`opt`FFF or `o 0o1 ... on`	Global additional option for {{F}}, like "l" (left) or "b" (bordered) individual option(s)	empty	optional
`par4`FF or `ql 0q1 ... qn`	Global 4^th parameter for {{F}}, like "n" (nolink) or "+" or "-" individual more parameter(s)	empty	optional
`par5`FF or `rl 0r1 ... rn`	Global 5^th parameter for {{F}} individual more parameter(s)	empty	optional
`wiki`FF or `kl 0k1 ... kn`	Global ISO 639-1 code for a Wikipedia sister project individual code parameter(s)	empty	optional
`inter`F or `il 0i1 ... in`	Global ISO 639-1 code for SVG switch internationalization individual code parameter(s)	empty	optional
`pfx`FFF or `xl 0x1 ... pn`	Global code prefixing the file individual prefix parameter(s)	empty	optional
`by`FFFF or `bl 0b1 ... bn`	Global author name individual author name(s)	empty	optional
`mod`FFF or `ml 0m1 ... mn`	Global code for modification of the user link(s) individual modifications (as `t`, `w`, `wt`)	empty	optional
`gallery`	set to "yes" for a gallery layout: parameters	empty	optional

Additional information

The template is intended to be used in the following namespaces: the File namespace

The template is intended to be used by the following user groups: all users

by User

The file specified with parameter 1, or each file specified with parameters 1 to n, can also be linked with the name of its author.
A value given with the parameter "by=" will be assigned to each file which does not have an individual author assignment with by1, by2, ... .
An individual author assignment can either specify an author, or with no value by_n= that no "by" should exist for that file n.
The 'global' parameter "by=user" is for all files that neither get an own author name by_n=user, nor are excluded by_n=.

Abbrevition :

In simple cases the |by= can be abbreviated with "/":
{{ Derived from | Example.jpg/Example | example.svg/Extra }}
renders as
This file was derived from:

Example.jpg by Example
Example.svg by Extra

Colon

The template finishes its display with a new line; when the template is used just to display the text, like
{{ Derived from }} - This file was derived from: which will not be appropriate if continuation in the same line is required; the new line can be avoided by using a colon instead of the missing user name, e.g.
{{ Derived from | by = : }}{{ F | Example.svg }}{{ By | example }}<br /> - This file was derived from: Example.svg by example
without inbetween spaces; a final new line can be forced manually, as shown, or by passing "br" as a second parameter to {{By}}.

Localization

To add your language to the list of languages supported by this template, please edit the template and add a row to the "{{LangSwitch|}}" construct. It takes the form "|xx= Your translation " (xx being the code of your language)
