[ [category: infoboxes]]

This template is used on files to add source information.

It supports the following parameters, of which artist and source:

{{art
|artist=
|tracer=
|book=
|series=
|source=
|type=
}}

Parameter	X	Description	Examples
Required artist		This parameter should link to the artist's Coppermind page.	|artist=[[Isaac Stewart]] |artist=[[User: Botanicaxu]] |artist=[[Coppermind: Artists/Sheep|Sheep]]
Required source		This parameter should link to a publicly viewable webpage where the image can be found, preferably the artist's website or social media. If the file is a cropped/traced version of another piece of art already on the coppermind, that file can be the source:	|source=[https://www.dandossantos.com/gallery/#/lightweaver/ Dan dos Santos' Website] |source=[[:File: Roshar.png]]
tracer		When the image is a traced vector graphic this parameter should link to the tracer's Coppermind user page.	|tracer=[[:User:WeiryWriter]]
series		The value here is passed to the {{series tag}} template, which means it must be one of the valid values for that template. This will add a link to the series page and include the file in the series category.	|series=Stormlight
book		The value here is passed to the {{book tag}} template, which passes it to {{b}} and means it should be one of the valid values for that template. This will add a link to the book page and include the file in the series category. This argument is mostly used on interior art from the book in question, or for books which aren't part of a series.	|book=sotd
type		This parameter can be used to assign a category tag to the art piece. See the #Type Tags section below for more details and examples	|type={{cat tag|Art}}

Type Tags

The type parameter provides a row for tags which categorise the file in different ways:

• {{cat tag|character images}} is placed on any image depicting a character
• {{cat tag|interior art}} is used to indicate when a file is from inside one of the published books
• {{cat tag|art}} is used on artist depictions of scenes and other more complex images
• {{cat tag|maps}} categorize any cartographic images
• {{cat tag|symbols}} & {{cat tag|diagrams}} indicate the obvious
• {{cat tag|chapter icons}} collect all the images used in books with icons in the chapter headings

It also allows for any other kind of tagging for images when it makes sense
