Ported from Template:Plain image with caption:

Since MediaWiki does not provide a way to add visible captions to images integrated seamlessly in a page (i.e, without borders), this template aims to provide that functionality.

Usage

This template can be either with named parameters, as in

{{Plain image with caption|image=Example.svg|caption=Example text|width=250px|align=right|caption position=bottom}}

...or in its shorthand form:

{{Plain image with caption|Example.svg|Example text|250px|right|bottom}}

• The only compulsory parameters are image and caption.
• When using the shorthand version, keep in mind that the order of parameters is important

Parameter	Default	Acceptable values
image	mandatory	any image filename ("File:" or "Image:" is optional)
caption	mandatory	any valid wiki markup
width	250px	any pixel width ("px" suffix optional)
align	right	left, center, right
caption position	bottom	top, bottom
triangle	none	triangle, none
triangle color	#ff0080	any css color
image override		Anything (lets you replace the image block with anything—useful for stacking image overlays)
caption override		Anything (lets you replace the caption block with anything)

—Examples—

The triangle parameters give the option to add a colored triangle label—

This is a picture of the James Webb Space Telescope. Note the small triangle next to this caption.

Using "image-override" to stack images

Grana structure The prevailing model for granal structure is a stack of granal thylakoids linked by helical stromal thylakoids that wrap around the grana stacks and form large sheets that connect different grana.
