This is a documentation subpage for Template:Main page image. It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
This template is used on the Main Page to show an image or media file with a caption underneath.
Usage
Note: Prefer images in landscape orientation. If you must use one in portrait orientation, avoid very skinny ones. If you must choose a skinny image, then please specify the height as well (e.g., 120x120
), but note that if you do so, there will be a gap between left or right edge of the image (depending on the what side of the container the template appears) and the edge of the section.
