Template:Photo requested is permanently
protected from editing because it is a
heavily used or highly visible template. Substantial changes should first be proposed and discussed here on this page. If the proposal is uncontroversial or has been discussed and is supported by
consensus, editors may use {{
edit template-protected}} to notify an administrator or template editor to make the requested edit. Usually, any contributor may edit the template's
documentation to add usage notes or
categories.
Any contributor may edit the template's sandbox. Functionality of the template can be checked using test cases. |

The |free=
parameter is documented as "if free=yes, the substituted text will explicitly request a freely-licensed photograph" but actually it requests replacement of a non-free image with a free image, something different. I think having |free=
and |replace=
parameters are needed.

See Wikipedia:Help desk#Photo Request Template for details. I believe I've coded this at Template:Photo requested/sandbox, with test cases at Template:Photo requested/testcases. Could an admin or another template editor check my work and copy it to the main template? -- John of Reading ( talk) 12:18, 10 August 2016 (UTC)
As near as I can tell the basic example of the template and the one "with subject category parameter" example are the same. Not sure what the subject category example should look like but maybe the wikitext needs to be altered? Thanks Jessamyn ( talk) 16:40, 10 March 2019 (UTC)
Can we make this template emit coordinates through a parameter so that it is listed on maps with requested photographs even if the article it is attached to has no coordinates set? E.g., to request an image of a statue of a person in their biographical article. Sandstein 06:58, 18 June 2019 (UTC)

The second sentence: "Please replace this template with a more specific media request template where possible." should be removed or replaced becauase there is no more specific media request template. The sentence seems to have been copied from Template:Image_requested.-- SaskatchewanSenator ( talk) 18:48, 9 October 2019 (UTC)

The link to the Free Image Search Tool is broken (404 error). I found the new link: [1]. Please update the template with it. Thanks. — Tartan357 ( Talk) 04:00, 8 July 2020 (UTC)
Currently, if you type {{Photo requested|in1=place 1|in2=place 2}}
, in1
will not work. I think this should be fixed so that it can be consistent with other templates such as citation templates, where {{Cite book|author=person}}
and {{Cite book|author1=person}}
works the same. –

Copy this diff in the sandbox to the main template. The documentation should be updated as well.
The change makes it so that the template accepts in1
as an argument, and in
becomes an alias to in1
. If both arguments are present, in1
is used.
Two new test cases are added to test this change.
I think the change is not controversial because the change should not break any existing proper usages of the template and does not add any new content to the template. I could be wrong about this though... – Ase1este t@lk c0ntribs 00:57, 28 January 2021 (UTC)

CC Search was renamed to Openverse, and began redirecting visitors to a new location in December 2021. The link currently in use redirects to the right place, but we might as well fix the name and use the new URL.
I request to change this (within the small text at the bottom of the box):
[https://search.creativecommons.org/search?{{#if:{{{of|}}}|q={{urlencode:{{{of}}} }}&}}license=cc0,pdm,by,by-sa Creative Commons Search
to this:
[https://wordpress.org/openverse/search/?{{#if:{{{of|}}}|q={{urlencode:{{{of}}} }}&}}license=cc0,pdm,by,by-sa Openverse
This changes the first part of the URL and the link display text; the URL parameter syntax appears to have stayed the same.
