{{Lua|Module:Commons link}}
This template is part of Wikipedia's [[Wikipedia:Wikimedia sister projects|sister projects]]. This template links an article to a page on [[commons:|Wikimedia Commons]], containing a gallery of related media. Note that it does not link to a Commons category, which will give a larger selection of media; for that use [[Template:Commons category]].
===Usage===
::{|
|-
|{{Tlx|Commons}}||—puts link-box with current page's name.
|-
|{{Tlx|Commons|''pagename''}}||—puts link-box connecting title ''pagename''.
|-
|{{Tlx|Commons|''pagename''|''showname''}}||—puts link-box showing the title ''showname''.
|-
|{{Tlx|Commons|''pagename''|3=position=left}}||—floats link-box to the left side.
|}
To place this template on the page, type '''<nowiki>{{</nowiki>Commons|''pagename''}}''', where ''pagename'' is the name of a page on Wikimedia Commons (defaults to <small><nowiki>"{{PAGENAME}}"</nowiki></small>, the end-name of a page where used).
* The optional 2nd parameter gives the displayed link text.
* The {{Para|position}} parameter accepts one keyword, <code>left</code>, to float the box to the left instead of to the right.
* To link to a ''Category'', use the related template {{Tlx|Commons category|''catname''}}, where ''catname'' is the name of the category.

{{xmark}} '''Do not place this template in a section all by itself.'''
{{xmark}} '''Do not place this template in a section containing columns.'''
This template should normally be placed at the top of the last section in the article, or consider using {{tlx|Commons-inline}} instead. See [[Wikipedia:Wikimedia sister projects]] for further recommendations about the best choice of template for various situations.
On [[WP:DAB|disambiguation pages]], this template should be listed above other text, but below any cleanup templates, images, infoboxes or navboxes.<!-- Per WP:ACCESS, cleanup templates, images, infoboxes, and navboxes are always first. -->
===Defaults===
The ''pagenam'' defaults to wiki-variable <small><nowiki>"{{PAGENAME}}"</nowiki></small>, which is the end-name of the page where used. For a Template:Txxx, the <small><nowiki>{{PAGENAME}}</nowiki></small> would be the end-name "Txxx". For a Category:Catxxx, that page would have <small><nowiki>{{PAGENAME}}</nowiki></small> as the end-name "Catxxx".
The default positioning of the link-box is to the right-side.
===Examples===
{| style="border:1px solid #808080; padding:1px;"
|{{tlx|Commons}}
|}
produces
{{Commons}}
{{clear}}
{| style="border:1px solid #808080; padding:1px;"
