Usage
editThis template is inserted on a file description page when the following conditions all meet:
- There is a file with the same name on Wikimedia Commons
- The contents of the local file and the Commons file are different
- It is desirable to resolve this naming conflict (i.e. the conflict is not one of the deliberate exceptions)
If the first condition meets but not the second, consider using {{Keep local}} or {{Now Commons}}, whichever is appropriate.
This template categorises tagged files into Category:Wikipedia files that shadow a file on Wikimedia Commons. This template is a self-reference.
If the file should be kept locally (i.e. not moved to Commons) or deleted, set |keeplocal=yes. You can optionally provide a reason to keep the file locally using |reason=.
Once the conflict is resolved, this template must either be removed from the file description page, or replaced with {{Keep local}}, whichever is appropriate.
