Template:Localized media/doc

Purpose
This template is used to show localized images (and another media) in the language of the current page. Users can be create localized version of screenshots, diagrams etc., which the standardized form of file name  (e.g. File:Sysopdeleteform el.png), where «lang_code» is a valid language code. In various cases, the language code can be separated by different delimiter characters.

The template first checks «content language» of the current page (this check based on suffix of page name, e. g. Template:Sysophelp/doc/el; this indicating that it is translated). Then it checks if the file name given as a first parameter has a translation in that language (e. g. File:Sysopdeleteform el.png).

If the current page name is not suffixed with a valid language code, or if the localized file doesn't exist in that language, it will display the file with base file name (e. g. File:Sysopdeleteform.png).

Parameters

 * 1) filename (required) — image file name, without extension, language code and delimitation symbol;
 * 2) ext (optional) — file extension, «png» by default;
 * 3) delim (optional) — delimitation symbol for language code, space by default.
