The `Module:InfoboxImage` is a Lua module used in the MediaWiki software to handle the display and formatting of images within infoboxes on Wikipedia and other MediaWiki-based sites. Infoboxes are a common feature on Wikipedia articles, providing a quick summary of key information about the subject of the article, often including images.

The `Module:InfoboxImage` is designed to enhance the functionality of infobox templates by allowing for more flexible and consistent image handling. It is particularly useful for ensuring that images are displayed correctly across different articles and infobox types, maintaining a uniform appearance and adhering to Wikipedia's style guidelines.

The module provides several key features:
* '''Automatic Resizing''': It can automatically resize images to fit within the constraints of the infobox, ensuring that images do not overflow or appear too small.
* '''Alignment Options''': The module allows for the alignment of images within the infobox, typically aligning them to the right or center, depending on the template's requirements.
* '''Caption Support''': It supports the inclusion of captions, which can provide additional context or information about the image.
* '''Linking''': Images can be linked to other pages or media files, allowing users to click on the image to view it in full size or to navigate to a related article.
* '''Fallback Mechanisms''': If an image is not available, the module can provide a default placeholder or alternative text, ensuring that the infobox remains visually balanced.
== Usage ==
The `Module:InfoboxImage` is typically invoked within an infobox template using Lua scripting. Template editors can call the module and pass parameters such as the image file name, size, alignment, and caption. The module processes these parameters and returns the appropriate HTML code to display the image within the infobox.
Here is a basic example of how the module might be used in a template:
```lua
local p = {}
function p.render(frame)
local args = frame:getParent().args
local image = args['image'] or ''
local size = args['size'] or '200px'
local caption = args['caption'] or ''
return frame:expandTemplate{
title = 'InfoboxImage',
args = {
image = image,
size = size,
caption = caption
}
}
end
end
function i.IsPlaceholder(image)
return p
-- change underscores to spaces
```
image = mw.ustring.gsub(image, "_", " ");
assert(image ~= nil, 'mw.ustring.gsub(image, "_", " ") must not return nil')
== Development and Maintenance ==
-- if image starts with [[ then remove that and anything after |
if mw.ustring.sub(image,1,2) == "[[" then
The `Module:InfoboxImage` is maintained by the Wikipedia community, with contributions from editors who have expertise in Lua programming and template design. Changes to the module are typically discussed on its talk page, where editors can propose improvements, report bugs, or request new features.
