  • The word 'controversial' should be avoided on biographical articles describing democratically elected politicians. It's part of their job to be controversial, since they don't tend to get 100% of the vote.
  • On biographic articles, when years are used in section headers, they should be put in front of the rest of the section, not afterwards. Makes it easier to compare and skim through.
  • Librsvg bugs
  • Gorbachev Pizza Hut commercial
  • I prefer using the word 'primarily' over stating that there are exceptions.

Interlanguage links

{{Interlanguage link multi|Englishtitle|langcode|3=Foreigntitle}}

Sometimes this doesn't work in author-link= attributes or something like that, this is a workaround:

:lang:Article

Language expansion

{{Expand Languagefull|topic=articlecategory|date=|Articletitle}}

Language expansion in reference

the author-link1 parameter cannot be interlanguage linked. However, author can. Example:

{{Cite book |author=[[:de:Erich Preuß|Preuß, Erich]]

Because it requires custom formatting (Last name comma first name), the regular interlanguage link template is not usable in this case.

Multiple images

If you don't mind the border, see the example at

Obama tan suit controversy. Otherwise, use the one at Disney logo. There is also the possibility of combining both images into a single one and reuploading that to Wikimedia Commons, as done for the infobox in ANT catalog

{{multiple image
 | background color = #FFFFFF
 | align = right
 | direction=vertical
 | total_width = 320
 | image_style = border:none;
 | border = infobox

 | image1 = 
 | alt1 = 
 | caption1 = 

 | image2 = 
 | alt2 = 
 | caption2 = 

 | image3 = 
 | alt3 = 
 | caption3 = 
}}

SVG logos

How to get SVG logos:

  • Check the website
  • Search site:contoso.com filetype:pdf, "contoso corporation" filetype:pdf or some related query on your favorite search engine
  • Zoom in to check if it is a vector. PDF.js will stop rerendering after a certain zoom level, but it will be clear enough to distinguish between a vector and an obvious raster image.
  • Open that particular page with Inkscape
  • Select that part of the logo, paste it into new file
  • Optional: scale the image to a reasonable size
  • File -> Document -> Crop to content button
  • Maybe needed to remove <script></script> part with a text editor
  • During uploading on Wikimedia Commons, use {{PD-textlogo}} as the 'license'.
