Template documentation | This template employs intricate features of template syntax.
You are encouraged to familiarise yourself with its setup and parser functions before editing the template. If your edit causes unexpected problems, please undo it quickly, as this template may appear on a large number of pages. You can conduct experiments, and should test all major changes, in either this template's sandbox, the general template sandbox, or your user space before changing anything here. |
This template is used to configure the articles found in the Selected image section found on the Justapedia main page. Use it on the article pages that are linked to the selected picture sub-page. For the quickest and easiest way to create the sub-page and related article links, use one of the {{Numbered subpages}} templates.
For an analogous template, which uses Justapedia:Picture of the day as source, see {{Selected image}} and {{Selected image/Featured picture}}.
