[edit] Usage

{{MW-screenshot|content=CONTENT|skin=SKIN|free=FREE_TEMPLATE}}

• CONTENT is used to specify what other content is visible in the screenshot, and should be replaced with one of the following values:
  • none - there is no content, or all content is part of the MediaWiki user-interface.
  • wikipedia - The screenshot is of a Wikipedia page.
  • gfdl - The content is released under the GFDL license (but is not Wikipedia content).
  • free - The content is released under any other 'free or open source' license (not GFDL). In this case you can use the 'free' parameter to indicate a template to be used (see below).
  • unfree - The content is proprietary and is not distributed under any 'free or open source' license.
  • Any other value will cause the image to be placed in Category:MW screenshots with unspecified content and will need fixing.
• SKIN is used to specify which skin is being used in the screenshot:
  • none - No skin-specific content is visible (which is unlikely...)
  • One of the following built-in skins: chick, classic, cologneblue, monobook (the default skin), myskin, nostalgia, simple. (note standard also exists as an alias for classic)
  • other - A custom/proprietary skin was used.
  • Any other value will cause the image to be placed in Category:No skin specified and will need fixing.
• FREE_TEMPLATE is an optional parameter, only used if content=free. In this case, the parameter names a template to be used to specify the license (don't include the curly brackets). For example: free=PD.
