There are certain messages you can use, such as [[MediaWiki:filehist-help]], [[mediawiki:metadata-help]], but they aren't really in ideal position.
On commons, there is some user js that is sort of for this purpose: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Gadget-Stockphoto.js (and associated .css) which adds a "Use this file on a wiki" button with examples. Similarlly I think the MediaViewer extension also has a button for examples.
If you're up for making your own extension, Check out the 'ImagePageAfterImageLinks' hook.
e.g. Something along the lines of $wgHooks['ImagePageAfterImageLinks'][] = function ( $page, &$html ) { $html .= wfMessage( 'image-page-extra-stuff' )->inContentLanguage()->parse(); }; Untested, but in theory, placing that in LocalSettings.php would add a new message named [[MediaWiki:image-page-extra-stuff]] to every file page.

Greetings,
I'd like to customize the pre-defined content of a file page. Specifically, one of my users has asked if it could have an "Example" section that can be used to list a number of cut&paste-ready lines, i.e.
[[Media:MyFile.ext|MyDescription]]
I thought perhaps this was part of one of the system messages within the MediaWiki namespace but I'm struggling to find which one.
Alternatively I could try and use the Boilerplate extension perhaps?
Thoughts?
Kind regards, Manu _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-l mailing list To unsubscribe, go to: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-l
