<nowiki>{{#filesize:Image:Ground_rules.jpg}}</nowiki>
 
gives the filesize of that image, which is {{#filesize:Image:Ground_rules.jpg}}
 
<nowiki>{{#filesize:Media:Sample Household Consensus Form.doc}}</nowiki>
 
gives the filesize of that document, which is {{#filesize:Media:Sample Household Consensus Form.doc}}. The same with 'Image' in stead of 'Media' also works: {{#filesize:Image:Sample Household Consensus Form.doc}}
 
= Get file size for thumbnail =
 
<nowiki>{{#filesize:Image:Ground_rules.jpg|50}}</nowiki>
 
constrains the image to width 50px. The size is {{#filesize:Image:Ground_rules.jpg|50}} for this thumbnail: {{#filesize:Image:Ground_rules.jpg|50|linkthumb}}
 
<nowiki>{{#filesize:Image:Ground_rules.jpg|50x30}}</nowiki>
 
constrains the size to within 50x30. Size is {{#filesize:Image:Ground_rules.jpg|50x30}} for this image: {{#filesize:Image:Ground_rules.jpg|50x30|linkthumb}}
 
<nowiki>{{#filesize:Image:Ground_rules.jpg|10x30}}</nowiki>
 
constrains teh size to within 10x3. Size is {{#filesize:Image:Ground_rules.jpg|10x30}} for this image: {{#filesize:Image:Ground_rules.jpg|10x30|linkthumb}}
 
= Specify a size, and help =
 
<nowiki>{{#filesize:Image:Ground_rules.jpg|50x30|help}}</nowiki>
 
{{#filesize:Image:Ground_rules.jpg|50x30|help}}
 
= Specify a size, and provide a preview =
 
<nowiki>{{#filesize:Image:Ground_rules.jpg|50x100|preview}}</nowiki>
 
You can use the preview option to generate some information and a preview, to help choose a good image size and file size. The above command produces:
 
{{#filesize:Image:Ground_rules.jpg|50x60|preview}}
 
Note how the requested size was 50x60, and the function returns the appropriate wiki code to produce the required dimensions.
 
= Linking and showing the filesize =
 
For generic documents, Media:...pdf and Image:...pdf link to the media, and to the media page respectively:
*Direct link to media {{#filesize:Media:Sample Household Consensus Form.pdf|linkfull showparams}} (filesize relevant)
*Link to media page {{#filesize:Image:Sample Household Consensus Form.pdf|linkfull showparams}} (filesize less relevant, because it is also shown on the media page)
 
For images this is the same, Media:...jpg links to the (full res)image, while Image:...jpg links to the Image page:
*Link to image directly: {{#filesize:Media:Ground_rules.jpg|50x100|linkfull showparams}}
*Link to image page: {{#filesize:Image:Ground_rules.jpg|50x100|linkfull showparams}}
 
If you specify 'thumb', the extension provides a link to the thumbnail (as an external link). (Media and Image have same effect.)
*{{#filesize:Media:Ground_rules.jpg|50x100|linkthumb showparams}}
*{{#filesize:Image:Ground_rules.jpg|50x100|linkthumb showparams}}
 
= Other experiments =
 
*{{#filesize:Media:Ground_rules.jpg|50x100|showthumb showparams}}
*{{#filesize:Image:Ground_rules.jpg|50x100|showthumb showparams}}
 
Output useful for api calls in mirroring script (needs further work to give proper serialised output):
*{{#filesize:Media:Ground_rules.jpg|50x100|serialised showparams}}
*{{#filesize:Image:Ground_rules.jpg|50x100|serialised showparams}}
