Note
When the file name of a file is the same it will be enough just to specify the file type by e.g.
.png(or short:.por shorter:.).jpg(or short:.j).gif(or short:.g).svg(or short:.s).tif(or short:.t).xcf(or short:.x).pdf(or any other extension - case sensitive)
Example: {{ Own using | .j }}. or see 4CVNK.svg
If a file name starts with a dot, prefixing it with a namespace like File:.Xyz.jpeg can avoid conflicts.
See a complete description of the replacement.
{{Own using|Example.jpg|.tiff}} renders as: Own work using: Example.jpg and Example.tiff
{{Own using|Example.svg | . | .j | .g }} renders as: Own work using: Example.svg, Example.png, Example.jpg and Example.gif
Pseudo file names
Like a file name can be specified, preferably at the last positions
- + or
-(a plus sign, or a minus sign) to require the display with namespace(s)
- {{Own using|Example.jpg|–}} renders as: Own work using: File:Example.jpg
- × (the multiplication sign) to avoid the conjunctional "and" before the last file name:
- {{Own using|Example.jpg|.s|.g|×}} renders as: Own work using: Example.jpg, Example.svg, Example.gif
- x or X (an "x", lower or upper case) to enable the textual description of other bases:
{{Own using|Example.svg|Example.jpg|by1=example|x}} more using_on
renders as:
Own work using: Example.svg by example, Example.jpg and more using_on
Because of many transclusions with wrong file names, now a workaround is made that when only one file is specified,
and with either "[" or "{" as the first character, it won't be handled by the module and Template:F but directly displayed.
Parameter by displays a user name after the file[s] display.
Instead of single user ids, Userlists can be specified.
If parameter[s] by1 or b1 [by2/b2, ...] is[are] used, each such user name is displayed immediately after that file;
when parameter b1 is used (with or without a value), each file is displayed at a new line.

{{Own using|Example.jpg|.s|.g|by1=example|h1=u|h2=s|b3=username|o3=n}}
renders as (hilite on 1 and 2, nolink on 3):

{{ Using | Image test.png/Example | Eksempel.jpg/Extra | ./Username | .g/Testuser1 | .s/Vectorizer | b1 = }}
