Usage
Template idea for the prefix Media:.
Media: vs. :File:
Both prefixes display a link instead of embedding the image itself but there are some key differences:
| Prefix | Sample | Special:UnusedFiles prevention | Provides a file page link | Provides a special link to Special:Upload if red link is detected |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Media:
|
Media:Alternate screen.png Media:aeilsdfilasjdl.png |
|
|
|
:File:
|
File:Alternate screen.png File:aeilsdfilasjdl.png |
|
|
|
That's what this template addresses by bring the best of both worlds together. This template should be used in main articles only!
