Please give full information for the description, date, source and author fields.
The date of a photograph must be when the original photograph was created, and not the date of upload, nor the date of scanning or digitizing. If the photographic image has been modified please give author, date and license for each modification. Please use template {{Artwork}} or {{Art photo}} if the image is of a painting, sculpture or other artwork and {{Book}} if the image is a part of a complete set of page scans of a book (or in the case of DjVu and PDF, one file may comprise all the pages).
This template is used to provide formatting to the basic information for files (description, source, author, etc.), and it is automatically inserted by the upload tools. All the field names are not case sensitive. The template is able to access information in Structured Data on Commons (SDC), so if proper SDC data is used some or even all the fields can be omitted.
For a full usage description of the template, see Commons:First steps/Quality and description.
The template automatically sets the following categories: Category:Author matching Creator template, Creator template not used when appropriate

Template parameters
Parameter | Description | Default | Status | |
---|---|---|---|---|
description Description | Description | Description of the image or other media file
The content of the description should provide brief (if possible) but complete information about the file's contents. It should identify:
In general, the description should provide enough information to support the file's categorization (excluding technical categories like those about file type or size). The description format should use language templates like {{En}} or {{De}} to specify the language of each description. It may use internal or interwiki links to Wikipedia articles, Commons galleries or Commons categories (which helps disambiguating and keeping concise). When the name of the file is descriptive enough to be used directly as its description, the short notation {{F|F}} can be used (with or without additional text, e.g. | SDC's captions followed by {{Description missing}} | required |
date Date | Date of creation | Date of creation, when the original source (such as photograph of 3-D scene, digital file, or original 2-D artwork, or SVG drawing) was created. Possible formats:
| SDC's inception (P571) | suggested |
source Source | Source | Information about where the file is from; if the file is based on other files then the original files should also be uploaded (if possible) and referenced. Possible content:
See also: Commons:Essential information.
An alternative to using this field is to use SDC's source of file (P7482) property. See Commons:Structured data/Modeling/Source for supported formats. | SDC's source of file (P7482), {{Source missing}} | required |
author Author | Author | Original author[2] of the file; where appropriate, use {{Creator|Personal name}}. If the work is derived from or depicts works by someone other than the author, the author of the original work should also be mentioned. For example, for a photograph of a sculpture, make a mention of both the sculptor and the photographer; for vectorizing, use the template {{AutVec}}. This field should not be used to specify the uploader of a file who merely scanned a preexisting image or found the file, since neither uploading nor scanning make that person the author. Possible content:
| SDC's creator (P170), {{Author missing}} | required |
permission Permission | Permission | License and other usage limitations and warnings. Due to the size of many license templates, they are often placed in a separate section below {{Information}} template, e.g. the == {{int:license-header}} == . In such a case, please leave this field blank!The license is related primarily to the file itself. If need to state a license of the depicted (or other source) work, include it additionally with appropriate comment. If needed, use relevant FoP templates. You can use {{Artwork}} instead of {{Information}} for simple copies of artworks. | empty | optional |

If appropriate, {{Derivative versions}} is useful. See also: Other versions templates. | empty | optional |

Example of files using SDC
When files use SDC than the content of the template can be reduced to {{Information}}
. See for example:
- File:OpenRefine Commons editing - wikitext data extension.png where
{{Information}}
will produce:
Description | |
Date | |
Source | Own work |
Author | Sandra Fauconnier |
- File:Indoor Climbing Kid.jpg where
{{Information}}
will produce:
Description | |
Date | |
Source | Own work |
Author | Jarek Tuszyński |
Example other_fields
Example using the other fields parameter to display a credit line:
{{Information | Description = Description | Date = 2008-06-09 | Source = {{own}} | Author = John Doe | Other fields = {{Credit line |Author = © John Doe | Other = Wikimedia Commons |License = CC-BY-3.0 & GFDL}} }}
will produce:
Description | Description |

Recommendations
For many media it is desirable to use a geocoding template in addition to the Information template.
Microformat
This template also emits an hCalendar microformat marking the creation of the image as an event. To do this, it requires the {{Date}} template, and takes the file name as the "summary" property. Optionally, it can include the {{Creator}} as an attendee and an hCard microformat, and use the contents of {{Description}} as the hCalendar's "description" property. Coordinates may be included by use of {{Location}} or {{Object location}}.
