Description
This template is for documenting the source of an image which is a cover to a videogame.
It can accept five optional parameters to replace the text "the cover of", identify an excerpt, identify which cover (in the event of multiple covers for a game, such as a difference between the US and UK/Europe covers), identify the source of the image, the copyright holder and the console of origin. If the source parameter is left empty, the template will show a note directing the uploader to add this, including the publisher and artist when known.
Usage
