List of placeholder images

Template:Ping. I'm not convinced by this edit. This list is intended to be a complete alphabetical list of placeholder images, so that templates can ask the module to suppress display of placeholders. -- John of Reading (talk) 07:12, 31 October 2015 (UTC)

Image is needed male.svg was already in the list further up anyway, so I've undone that change. -- WOSlinker (talk) 07:43, 31 October 2015 (UTC)

Imagemap support

This module needs to be updated to support "imagemap", per the example at The Doctor (Doctor Who) to remove any extraneous markup. There is only one image used (File:Versions of the Doctor.jpg), but multiple different links over the one image. A template or module should reflect all possible usages of it; even though this is only one such case, there may be other cases of this on Wikipedia. I'd do it myself in the sandbox, but I'm not entirely familiar with this module. Alex|The|Whovian^? 23:59, 13 March 2016 (UTC)

This still needs fixing. Alex|The|Whovian^? 13:22, 4 April 2016 (UTC)

This should now be fixed. -- WOSlinker (talk) 14:32, 4 April 2016 (UTC)

"title=" parameter: relevance?

How relevant is it to support the |title= parameter, especially next to the |alt= parameter? (i.e., the css-tiles a.k.a. mousehover-text; |alt=-value is used when missing).

I get the 'css-title' angle, but not in WP:EIS and not in WP:FILE we have an option for that. So when adding a plain file to an article (outside of infobox), the option 'css-title' is not available. My question starts from {{Chembox}}, which has 400+ parameters. I'd like to simplify this list, eg by removing this title parameter (pushing the alt parameter). -DePiep (talk) 19:58, 25 May 2016 (UTC)

-==Missing |page param (DjVu)==
-I'm trying to use a specific page from a [[DjVu]] file as an image in an infobox ({{tl|Infobox magazine}}) but am only getting the first page (which is Google's scanning boilerplate). Scanning the source for this module I also see no reference to to a <code>|page</code> parameter (the infobox in question does have it, as <code>|image_page</code>, though). Was this forgotten for the Lua module, or am I missing something?
-Test case: {{#invoke:InfoboxImage|InfoboxImage|image=The Universal Magazine, Vol. XCV (July 1794).djvu|alt=Alt text|border=yes|upright=yes|page=8}}
-Provided I have understood how this works correctly, so long as that image shows as Google's boilerplate the module is ignoring the given page. The correct image (page) is an 18th-century engraved fronticpiece of a woman starting pensively at a globe. --[[User:Xover|Xover]] ([[User talk:Xover|talk]]) 07:01, 14 October 2015 (UTC)
