This is a documentation subpage for Template:Ifexist only Commons. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

The ((ifexist only Commons)) template can be used to identify a media file which exists on Wikimedia Commons but not on English Wikipedia; whereas ((ifexist|File:...)) and ((ifexist|Media:...)) will only check, respectively, whether the file exists on English Wikipedia (the first) and on Commons or English Wikipedia (the second).

Use the format

((ifexist only Commons|file name|return if true|return if false))

. The 2nd and 3rd parameters are used to define the output of the template if the condition is true or false, respectively.
