Guidelines
[සංස්කරණය]- The picture must already be a featured picture. To nominate a picture for that honor see featured picture candidates.
- Featured images are currently selected in roughly the order in which they were promoted (i.e. a First In, First Out order). See the featured pictures candidates archive for this order. Exceptions are made for anniversaries of events, or for national holidays.
- Not all featured pictures will appear as POTD. Wikipedia:Picture of the day/Unused has a list of those that have been skipped.
Including the POTD on your user page
[සංස්කරණය]You can insert the image on your user page or talk page by adding the text {{Pic of the day}} (this version is shown above). It will be displayed in a box of no more than 600 pixels wide, and will include a small amount of text based on the article in which the image appears. A no-text version is also available via {{POTD}}.
It is also possible to create your own custom POTD layouts, in case the already-existing versions will not look good within your user page design. Mix and match the following components to make your own. This system will only work for Pictures of the day selected beginning January 1, 2007. Be sure to replace [date] with an appropriate date value. For a dynamically updating version, use {{#time:Y-m-d}} (example: {{POTD/{{#time:Y-m-d}}|image}}).
| Template | Description | Renders as |
|---|---|---|
{{POTD/[date]|image}} |
The name of the image, without the Image: prefix. |
සැකිල්ල:POTD/2024-11-12 |
{{POTD/[date]|size}} |
The size of the image, without the trailing px. |
සැකිල්ල:POTD/2024-11-12 |
{{POTD/[date]|caption}} |
The image caption. | සැකිල්ල:POTD/2024-11-12 |
{{POTD/[date]|title}} |
A link to the article the image represents. | සැකිල්ල:POTD/2024-11-12 |
{{POTD/[date]|texttitle}} |
A linkless short caption, also useful as an alt attribute. | සැකිල්ල:POTD/2024-11-12 |
There are two additional pre-defined layouts
{{POTD/{{#time:Y-m-d}}|column}}: This has the image and caption above each other with no borders. Used on some of the Main Page alternatives and suitable for user pages as well.{{POTD/{{#time:Y-m-d}}|row}}: This has the image and caption encapsulated in (usually) a single table row. This is the version used on the Main Page.
It is also possible to permanently feature a POTD for a selected day. Just add a specific value for the date you want. For example, today's POTD is {{POTD/2024-11-12|image}}. Likewise, you can use date parameters with the other templates as well. If you like the pre-made formats, you can use date parameters there as well, like this: {{Pic of the day|date=2024-11-12}} or {{POTD|date=2024-11-12}}. Again, this system will only work for Pictures of the day selected beginning January 1, 2007.

POTD thumb
[සංස්කරණය]When you want to display the POTD like an ordinary thumbnail, similar to {{POTD Commons}}, you can use {{POTD wikipedia}}. For instance, if you want a thumbnailed version, floated right, you can use : {{POTD wikipedia|float=right|title=yes|thumb=yes}}.
Older Pictures of the day
[සංස්කරණය]If you want to permanently include a Picture of the day that was selected between November 1, 2004 and December 31, 2006, use the following: {{Wikipedia:Picture of the day/[month] [day], [year]}} or {{Wikipedia:POTD/[month] [day], [year]}}. For example, {{Wikipedia:Picture of the day/December 31, 2006}}.
PsOTD selected from May 2004 through October 2004 are only accessible in month-at-a-time archives and can only be placed on user pages by using standard image syntax.
