Usage

The purpose of this template is to automatically categorize image files on the wiki. This allows the category names to be changed more easily in the future, or for the structure to be made more specific or general depending on needs. Instead of changing every file page with a command, the template can be changed to use different category names. It is also more visually appealing and intuitive to visitors of the file page.

Defines Categories
Type	Category	If Unused	If Old Version
Screenshot	% Screenshots		% Old Version Screenshots
Map	% Maps	% Unused Maps	% Old Version Maps
Character	% Character Images	% Unused Character Images	% Old Version Character Images
Gamefile	% Game Files	% Unused Game Files	% Old Version Game Files
Special Cases
Art	% Official Art	If EditType includes "recreation": % Art
Other	Always: % Other Images
