Template:Art official caption

Template documentation (for the above template, sometimes hidden or invisible)[view] [edit] [history] [refresh]

Description

This template creates captions for official art, including character portraits commissioned by Critical Role, maps and other art displayed in Wizards of the Coast materials, screenshots from the stream, and similar. This is intended for items that will be covered under fair use and is not produced by the fan community.

Please note that the template is complicated with many parameter combinations and thus may sometimes act unexpectedly when you use it. If you find a use case that functions strangely or breaks the caption, please leave a message on the template's talk page.

Dependencies

Syntax

  • subject: What is being depicted. Accepts wiki markup, links, and other formatting. This is always required. (See: #Using unnamed parameters.)
  • artist: The artist of the work. This automatically links to their category on the wiki. If the work is a screenshot or a Wizards of the Coast illustration, this parameter is not required but will display if provided. (See: #Using unnamed parameters.)
    • artist2: In the rare case that an image features the work or two artists, or perhaps you want to credit a photographer and a creator of the photographed image, or something, you can use this to set a second artist. This parameter must be named. It does not work in any other case.
  • source: The source of the work. This may be provided as a URL or as wikilinked text, including templates such as {{ep}}. If providing a URL, do not format it and provide it as a raw URL. Please remember to italicize the names of books and shows! This parameter does not necessarily need to be named. src is another name for this. (See: #Using unnamed parameters.)
  • permission: The URL evidence of the artist granting permission for the piece to be used on this wiki; do not format this, provide it as a raw URL. If an artist has granted blanket permission, then do not include this parameter. This template will automatically collect the permission from the artist's category page; this parameter overrides what is in that category page. If this parameter is missing and no blanket permission exists at the artist's category page, the template will automatically insert fair use language.
    • If you need to manually override the template pulling permission from the artist's category page to show the fair use language because the image does not fit the limitations for that permission (for example permission from CoupleOfKooks is for EGTW art only), set exactly |permission=none. This is word and case sensitive. If it is a Wizards of the Coast work, the |wotc= parameter described further down will not override the permissions; set exactly |permission=none-wotc.
  • screenshot: If this is a screenshot rather than an illustration. Any value, such as "1" or "yes" or "true" will enable this.
  • photograph: If this is a photograph rather than an illustration. Any value, such as "1" or "yes" or "true" will enable this.
  • map: If this is an illustration of a map specifically. Any value, such as "1" or "yes" or "true" will enable this.
  • wotc: If art is from a Wizards of the Coast material, including Explorer's Guide to Wildemount. Any value, such as "1" or "yes" or "true" will enable this. Permissions language for a WotC material differ from other fair use images so you must remember to enable this. wizards is another name for this.
  • nointro: Disables the introductory text that comes before what is placed into the subject field. This overrides all parameters that alter the introductory text, including screenshot, photograph, and map, but you will still need to set those parameters so that the template correctly handles the artist and sourcing.
  • ddb: If you'd like to insert a D&D Beyond link into the reference, do so here. Insert the full {{D&DBeyond}} template into this parameter. This will replace the usual repetition of the caption information in the reference with the D&D Beyond template.
  • more: Any further information you'd like to add.
  • noref: If you do not want have a footnote attached to the end of the caption. This converts the template to display all information in the caption.

Using unnamed parameters

As with {{art caption}}, you do not need to necessarily name subject, artist, and source/src. The template will read the first three unnamed parameters in that order: the first is subject, the second is artist, the third is source. However, the template sometimes breaks if you mix and match unnamed and named parameters for these three items, so it is generally not recommended you mix and match. It's safest to name these parameters.
