Template:Media link
From Triforce Wiki, a The Legend of Zelda wiki
Jump to navigationJump to search
Usage[edit]
Template idea for the prefix Media:. The template was originally from the Super Mario Wiki.
Media: vs. :File:[edit]
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:Animal Village LA Switch.jpg Media:aeilsdfilasjdl.png |
 |
 |
|
:File:
|
File:Animal Village LA Switch.jpg File:aeilsdfilasjdl.png |
|
|
|
That's what this template addresses by bring both together. This template should only be used for main articles.
Usage[edit]
