=== Gallery syntax === <!--T:124-->
</translate>
<translate><!--T:125--> It's easy to make a gallery of thumbnails with the <tvar name=gallery></tvar> tag.</translate>
<translate><!--T:126--> The syntax is:</translate>

<syntaxhighlight lang=wikitext>
<gallery>
File:file_name.ext|caption|alt=alt language
File:file_name.ext|caption|alt=alt language
{...}
</gallery>
</syntaxhighlight>

<translate>
<!--T:127-->
Note that the image code is not enclosed in brackets when enclosed in gallery tags. 
</translate>

<translate><!--T:128--> Captions are optional, and may contain wiki links or other formatting.</translate>
</tvar> for details.</translate>}}
<translate><!--T:129--> Some of the parameters controlling thumb output can also be used here, specifically the ones that modify the file (as opposed to ones that control where in the page the image falls).</translate>
<translate><!--T:130--> For example, with multi-paged media like pdfs, you can use code like <tvar name=1><code>page=4</code></tvar> and with videos you can use <tvar name=2><code>thumbtime=10</code></tvar>.</translate>

<translate><!--T:131--> The <tvar name=file><code>File:</code></tvar> prefix can be omitted.</translate>
<translate><!--T:216--> However, it is helpful to include it as an aid for quickly locating image specifiers in the wikitext (for example, when cleaning up page layout).</translate>

<translate>
<!--T:290-->
If the image links to an external site, the caption must come ''before'' the link parameter or the caption will not render.

<!--T:132-->
For example:
</translate>

<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">
<gallery>
File:Example.jpg|<translate nowrap><!--T:293--> Item 1</translate>
File:Example.jpg|<translate nowrap><!--T:294--> a link to <tvar name=1>[[Help:Contents]]</tvar></translate>
File:Example.jpg
File:Example.jpg|alt=<translate nowrap><!--T:295--> An example image. It has flowers</translate>
File:Example.jpg|''<translate nowrap><!--T:296--> italic caption</translate>''
File:Example.jpg|link=https://example.com|<translate nowrap><!--T:297--> This text will not render because an external link came first</translate>
File:Example.jpg|<translate nowrap><!--T:298--> Links to external website</translate>|link=https://example.com
File:Example.jpg|link=w:Main_Page|<translate nowrap><!--T:299--> Internal link</translate>
Example.jpg|on page ""
File:Using Firefox.pdf|page=72
</gallery>
</syntaxhighlight>
