Tag	Text that will be shown (and usage notes)
{{convert to SVG and copy to Wikimedia Commons}} category links talk edit	This image needs to be converted to the SVG format. Once that is done, it should be moved to Wikimedia Commons in accordance with this wiki's image policy. Once the image is improved, see moving files to Commons for information on how to proceed. If you can not convert to SVG, go ahead and move to the Commons anyway. See Move-to-commons assistant.
{{copy to Wikimedia Commons}} category links talk edit	This file is a candidate to be copied to Wikimedia Commons. Any user may perform this transfer; refer to Moving files to Commons for details. If this file has problems with attribution, copyright, or is otherwise ineligible for Commons, then remove this tag and DO NOT transfer it; repeat violators may be blocked from editing. Other Instructions Endorse this file for transfer by adding `\|human=<your username>` to this Template. If this file is freely licensed, but otherwise unsuitable for Commons (e.g. out of Commons' scope, still copyrighted in the US), then replace this Template with `{{Do not move to Commons\|reason=<Why it can't be moved>}}` If you think that a local copy of this file should be retained, then replace this Template with `{{Keep local\|reason=<Why a local copy is needed>}}` Please ensure that the file has a properly descriptive and unambiguous name before transferring; see File mover#What files should be renamed? for details.
{{now Commons}} category links talk edit	This file is now available on Wikimedia Commons as File:Sample.png. Files that have been tagged with this template may be deleted after satisfying conditions of CSD F8. Administrators: If the file has been properly moved, delete it. If not, change the {{Now Commons}} tag to: `{{Incomplete move to Commons\|sample.png\|reason=reason why the image could not be moved}}` File upload log • Move old versions to Commons File does not exist on Commons! Please do not delete this image. This template should only be used on file (image) pages.
{{shadowsCommons}} category links talk edit	A different file is available on the Wikimedia Commons with the same name, Elite Dangerous Wiki:Template index/Moving. You can help fix this in one of the following ways: Rename the file locally using {{rename media}}. Due to T30299, if the Commons file is renamed, it will override the local file. Copy to Wikimedia Commons if it is a freely licensed or public domain media. See Moving files to Commons for more information. If the Commons file is substantially similar and of lower quality than the local file, you may want to overwrite the Commons file with the local one. Nominate the Commons file for deletion if it doesn't meet their copyright or inclusion criteria. Nominate the file for deletion if it is not usable or for example it is the same resolution or of lower-quality than the one on Commons. This template should only be used in pages in the file namespace.
