{{documentation}}
This template controls the appearance of references to external images which are currently not well supported in MediaWiki. The feature is therefore deactivated.
 
Use it like this:
<nowiki>{{External image| </nowiki>''complete URL of image''<nowiki> }}</nowiki>
 
or, in case the URL contains an equal sign (<code>=</code>):
<nowiki>{{External image| URL = </nowiki>''complete URL of image''<nowiki> }}</nowiki>
 
This causes a box on the wiki page the automatic addition in [[:Category:IMPORTDEBUG - Change External Images]] for later access. So after a local copy was uploaded, the image can be embedded easily.
