This template and others like it allow for a standardized way of providing this information. This template is an alternate to the साँचा:tl template.

This template is designed to be used in conjunction with साँचा:tl. On every non-free image's description page, each article which uses that image must be noted, and given its own fair use rationale. The साँचा:tl template is too cumbersome for images used in multiple articles; in those instances, that template has to be duplicated in its entirety for each use. This template allows for the display of all necessary information without unnecessary redundancies.

Usage

Copy the following code and paste onto the appropriate image description page.

Though the साँचा:tl template need only be used once per image, a साँचा:tl template and its parameters must be used for each article in which the image is used.

Remember that each image must also be tagged with an image copyright tag.

Parameter	Explanation
Description	Description of image, including but not limited to applicable film, series, book, magazine, performer(s), character(s) or other elements, as well as date where possible.
Source	Source of image, referencing external site if applicable, and original work/source if not specified elsewhere.
Portion	How much copyrighted material is used; the amount used must not make the work as a whole less valuable to the copyright holder.
Low resolution	Images must generally be of low resolution, just high enough to demonstrate what is being shown. Images that require high resolutions of near-commercial grade quality should have that reasoning justified here.
Other information	Optional parameter; if applicable, any other information about the media that may apply, including specific copyright information.
Article	Specific article in which image is used, and to which purpose/rationale applies.
Purpose	How the media contributes significantly to the article(s) in which it is used, and how the use of the media does not interfere with the media's original purpose.
Replaceability	Explain why no free equivalent could reasonably be obtained or created to replace this media.
