This is a documentation subpage for Template:Extimage. It contains usage information, categories, and other content that is not part of the original template page.

Embed external images using internal image-like styling for thumbnails. Only images hosted on the servers listed at the local image whitelist can be embedded directly into a page. Images on any other server will appear as a regular hyperlink. Currently, the following general image hosts are supported:

• Dropbox
• imgur
• puush
• Discord
• Wikipedia*

*These sites should not be used as host, but it is possible to use images that are already uploaded to these sites.
