It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

Commons files

Files uploaded to Wikimedia Commons cannot be renamed by Wikipedia administrators or file movers. Commons:File naming describes how Commons files should be named. In general, Commons aims to provide stable file names as there might be external file clients and file moving involves significant human and computing resources. Thus renaming should be used with caution. To request the rename of a file at Commons, follow the instructions at Commons:File renaming.
