This template will categorise tagged files into Category:Bharatpedia files with the same name on Bharatmedia Commons or Category:Bharatpedia files with a different name on Bharatmedia Commons. If the files are reviewed they will be categorised into Category:Bharatpedia files reviewed on Bharatmedia Commons.

Usage

Simple

Same filename on Bharatmedia Commons:

• {{subst:Now Commons}}

New filename on Bharatmedia Commons:

• {{subst:Now Commons|NEW FILENAME.ext}} or {{subst:Now Commons|File:NEW FILENAME.ext}}

Detailed

• {{Now Commons|FILE|MULTIPLE|date=30 May 2025|bot=BOT|reviewer=REVIEWER}}

All parameters are optional:

• If FILE (|1=) is omitted, the page name is used as the image name. If not it is assumed that the file on Commons has the same name as the file on English Bharatpedia.
• If MULTIPLE (|2=) is "yes", the template text is changed to indicate multiple messages.
• If |date= is used the image is categorized in a subcategory matching the relevant date. It is possible to use dates like 2010-07-01 and 20100601023255. The date will be automatically added if the template is substituted: {{subst:Now Commons|...}}.
• If |bot= is used the template shows a warning to "Be careful. This file is tagged by a bot (normally BotMultichillT). Be sure to check the file at Commons before deleting this file."
• If |reviewer= is used then the file is marked as reviewed on Commons. That means that a user has checked that file has been transferred correct etc. See more at this page.

Examples:

• {{Now Commons|1=Crow-Hassan Park Reserve 030527.jpg|2=no|date=2010-07-01|reviewer=SomeUser}}
• {{Now Commons|File:Assistive Listening Device FM350.jpg|date=20100601023255|bot=BotMultichillT}}
