Editing Template:Ambox/doc (section)

=== ''image'' ===
You can choose a specific image to use for the template by using the ''image'' parameter. Images are specified using the standard syntax for inserting files in Wikipedia (see [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Images#How to place an image]].) Widths of 40-50px are typical. For example:

* {{Tl|POV}} specifies {{Para|image|<nowiki>[[File:Unbalanced scales.svg|40px|link=|alt=]]</nowiki>}} and looks like this:
{{POV|date={{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}}}

* {{tl|underlinked}} specifies {{para|image|<nowiki>[[File:Ambox wikify.svg|50x40px|link=|alt=]]</nowiki>}} and looks like this:
{{underlinked|date={{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}}}

Please note:
* If no image is specified then the default image corresponding to the ''type'' is used. (See [[#type]] above.)
* If {{para|image|none}} is specified, then no image is used and the text uses the whole message box area.
* If an icon is [[Wikipedia:Alternative text for images#Purely decorative images|purely decorative]] and also in the [[Wikipedia:Image use policy#Public_domain|public domain]], [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Accessibility|accessibility]] can be improved by suppressing the link to the file page by adding "{{para|link}}{{para|alt}}" as seen above.
