Description

Source

Date
Use the date when the item was originally created (not the date you uploaded it).
Author
This is the original creator(s) of the item.
License
See Wiki:Copyrights for a list of license types.
Other versions
If the Wiki has another closely-related version of the item (like the same image but in another format, cropped differently, etc.), use this parameter to include a link to it.
If linking to a file, always remember to start the link with a colon like so: [[:File:The Beginners Cave intro.png]].
Previous
If the item is one is an ordered series of items, you can use this to show a link to the previous item in the series.

As above, but links to the next item in the series.
