This template is used to display information about a file - Per the wiki's image use policy, it is required. The basic skeleton is automatically pre-loaded into the edit box when you use the upload page.
{{aboutfile
|description=Describe the subject or image contents
|source=Where the image is from
|artist=Author of the image
|edited=Describe edits, if any
|other_versions=Link to another closely related file
}}
There are a total of five (5) parameters. Not all of them will be used each time, but use every one that applies.
description- A brief description of what the image is or represents.source- An external link to where the image was obtained. If a screenshot, you can simply link the media name internally.artist- Who the author of the image is, whether yourself or someone else.edited- If the file has been changed in any way (cropped, re-colored, anything at all) from its original format, explain how and why.other_versions- If there is another image/alternate take of the same subject on the wiki, please link to it using [[:File:Filename.ext]].
License info is done separately, using the drop-down list below the main edit box.
