Editing Incubator escapee wiki:Extended image syntax (section)

==Overlaying annotations on an image ==
{{update|section|part=how this works with Imagemap templates?}}
In some cases, it may be desirable to add clickable annotations to an image. The templates [[Template:Annotated image]] and [[Template:Annotated image 4]] exist for this purpose.

These templates allow [[wikitext]] (e.g., regular text, wikilinks, allowed HTML code, references, and other templates) to be included on the image itself. They may also be used to crop an image so as to focus on a particular portion of it, or alternatively, expand the white area around an image for better placement of wikitext.
