Template:File other/doc

This is the image other meta-template.

It helps other templates detect what type of page they are on.

Basic usage
This template usually takes two parameters, like this:

If the template is on an image page, it will return this:



If the template is on any other page, it will return this:



A typical usage case could be to make it so that a template only adds a category when on image pages. Thus not adding other pages that just show the template to the category. Like this:

Or to warn that a template should not be used on other pages:

Note that in the first case above the "other" parameter was not used, and in the second example the "image" parameter was left empty.

Advanced usage
This template works like main talk other, see full documentation there. Note that it detects "Image talk:" pages as type other. The test parameter demospace for this template understands the values image and other.
