This template removes the File: and Image: prefixes from file names.
Examples
{{remove file prefix|Example.svg}} → Example.svg
{{remove file prefix|File:Example.svg}} → Example.svg
{{remove file prefix|FILE:Example.svg}} → Example.svg
{{remove file prefix|Image:Example.svg}} → Example.svg
{{remove file prefix|IMAGE:Example.svg}} → Example.svg
{{remove file prefix|Other:Example.svg}} → Other:Example.svg
This technically works for any valid namespace, but is rarely needed there:
{{remove file prefix|Portal talk:Example.svg}} → Portal talk:Example.svg
It will also strip interwiki links:
{{remove file prefix|:Commons:Example.svg}} → Example.svg
{{remove file prefix|commons:Example.svg}} → Example.svg
{{remove file prefix|:sv:Example.svg}} → Sv:Example.svg
However, it will fail for more complicated situations:
{{remove file prefix|:sv:File:Example.svg}} → Sv:File:Example.svg
