Usage

Further information: Wikipedia:Moving files to the Commons

The style this template has above is meant for image pages. This template automatically detects if it is used on an article page (main space) and then it looks like this:

This template will categorise tagged pages into Category:Copy to Wikimedia Commons.

Please do not subst: this template. Please do not insert {{...}} characters into the edit summary of the target pages, as this causes formatting problems after the edit history is transwikied. This template is a self-reference.

Usage: simple

• {{Copy to Wikimedia Commons}}

Will send the file to Category:Copy to Wikimedia Commons.

Usage: detailed

• {{Copy to Wikimedia Commons|bot=Botname|date=ଡିସେମ୍ବର ୨୦୨୪}}
• {{Copy to Wikimedia Commons|priority=true}}
• {{Copy to Wikimedia Commons|human=username}}

Some parameters can be used together and some should not be used together:

• date=ଡିସେମ୍ବର ୨୦୨୪ or the month when the tag was added.
• bot=Botname to indicate that the file was mass tagged by a bot. It may not be eligible for Commons so check before it is moved. Will send the file to Category:Copy to Wikimedia Commons (bot-assessed).
• priority=true is added if the file is selected as a priority file in the MtC Drive. Will send the file to Category:Move to Commons Priority Candidates.
• human=Some user to indicate that the file has been checked by a human and found eligible for Commons. Will send the file to Category:Copy to Wikimedia Commons reviewed by a human.
