This documentation is transcluded from Module:Languages/doc.

Since SVG usually stores such information as plain text, these captions can easily be translated and a new SVG image uploaded, translated into a new language. You may add this template to pages of SVG images which contain embedded text or attached captions. This template will display a link to translation manual.

The template automatically sets the following categories:

• Category:Translation possible - SVG
• Category:Translation possible - SVG (switch) (if parameter switch contains any value)
• Category:Translation possible - to check (if the file is not SVG)

Usage

{{Translate}}

Template parameters

 Parameter text is empty

<templatedata>JSON</templatedata> ./. {{TemplateBox}}

TemplateData

TemplateData is a way to store information about template parameters (the description of those and of the whole template) for both humans and machines. It is used by VisualEditor and possibly other tools like Upload Wizard.

Existing template documentation
At Wikimedia Commons, it is recommended to use {{TemplateBox}} with either ‎useTemplateData=1 or ‎useTemplateData=only on the ‎/doc subpage and transcluding it with {{Documentation}} into the template. <nowiki>-tags can be wrapped around the arguments, if required, to avoid templates being expanded.

Newly created template documentation and imports
Another option, especially for imported templates, or for users with JSON experience, is placing raw <templatedata>-tags into the Wikitext of the template, as described in various Wikipediae.

Discussion
There is an ongoing discussion about that matter. Feel invited to comment if you are experienced in either way, your time permits and if you like to share your opinion or to make a suggestion.

This file is translated using SVG <switch> elements. All translations are stored in the same file! Learn more. To embed this file in your language (if available) use the lang parameter with the appropriate language code, e.g. Template:Translate/example for the English version. To translate the text into your language, you can use the SVG Translate tool. Alternatively, you can download the file to your computer, add your translations using whatever software you're familiar with, and re-upload it with the same name. You will find help in Graphics Lab if you're not sure how to do this.
