Template:Superseded/doc
This template shows that a better image should be used instead of the current image.
The template automatically sets the following categories:
• when transcluded from a SVG file: | raster | Bitmap version available | |
SVG | Superseded | ||
• when transcluded from raster files: | raster | Superseded | |
SVG | Superseded by SVG | Template {{Vector version available}} should be used ! |

Usage
{{Superseded |1= }}
The main template is Superseded. It handles each combination of superseded and superseding files.
If a redirect
with wrong extension names is used, as PNG available but the superseding file is SVG,
it will work correctly but the displayed text may be misleading. See also "Intentions".
Within Image generation the short code \-
can be used.
Template parameters
Parameter | Description | Default | Status | |
---|---|---|---|---|
1 | File name of the better image; different possibilities:
| see description and examples | optional | |
2 reason | detailed information can be specified why the other file should be used {{Superseded by PNG}} uses "A PNG version of this file is now available." for default | EMPTY default | optional | |
ext | a valid extension code, e.g. png or jpg | {{{extpng}}} | optional | |
lang | language code (ISO 639), to display a translated version when the SVG file contains translations using SVG <switch> elements. | {{int:lang}} | optional |

Intentions
This template is only intended to be used with image files. For other types of files, use {{Superseded2}} instead.
Depending on the combination of the file where the template is used (the "origin"), and the file specified by the transclusion (the "target"), different requests are assumed.
origin file | target file | category | meaning |
---|---|---|---|
vector | raster | Bitmap version available | a bitmap version to that vector graphics is available; it is possible to specify whether file has better quality |
vector | vector | Superseded | target supersedes origin |
raster | raster | Superseded | target supersedes origin |
raster | vector | Superseded by SVG (Vector version available) |
vector version available; when the better suited template {{SupersededSVG}} is used it can be specified which of the two files has better quality |
other | other | Superseded | target supersedes origin; (even if video or audio files, the template always speaks about "images") |
It does not matter which of the many redirects for "Superseded" or "Bitmap version" is used, after checking the two file extensions the template decides about categorization.
Even when Superseded by JPG (or Superseded by PNG) is used for another file extension (bitmap or vector graphic, or audio/video file) it will work well –
but it seems not very wise to specify e.g. Bitmap version available when the target file is a vector version (nevertheless it's seducing to use always the short {{bva}}).
With the parameter "reason" the relation of the two files can be specified, and other information may be given.
