'Ello y'all, What do you think of extending {{image}} syntax to allow the following? (1) Including the image without a link to a details page. (2) Including text (rather than an image) that links to a details page. (3) Including an image that links to the details page of a different image. (1) would be useful when the details page provides neither additional information nor a larger image, since it spares the user from wondering why there was a link. (2) Allows paragraph text to casually refer to images by linking text to them. (3) Allows a person to carefully crop a thumb maximizing pertinent detail while still having that thumb link to a larger image that includes more context around the thumb detail. One way we can do this is by making {{}} notation analogous to [[]] notation. Since we have [[page-id|link-text]], we might have {{details-image|link-contents}}. Perhaps it would look like this: (1) {{|thumb.jpg}} (2) {{details.jpg|very cool image}} (3) {{details.jpg|thumb.jpg}} This does present two questions, though: * How do we know whether the link contents is text for inclusion or an image filename/ID? Perhaps we look for a trailing image file suffix? Or just a period? * How do we specify the alignment of the included image? As follows? Inline: {{details.jpg|thumb.jpg}} Left: {{details.jpg|thumb.jpg }} Right: {{details.jpg| thumb.jpg}} Center: {{details.jpg| thumb.jpg }} I'm currently just using the following notation to implement feature (1), but thought we might think about generalizing this before I commit it to the source: {{image.jpg?nolink}} Of course, 'nolink' works alongside the regular image parameters, such as image size.
