Delete[edit]

I'm all for deleting this rather useless less-helpful-than-wikitext template, used by—as best I can tell—zero actual pages in the wild. Even if we were to keep it, it definitely does NOT deserve the redirect from Template:fl, which should go to the much more important {{fl.}} — LlywelynII 08:53, 11 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Depreciated parameters?[edit]

I recently tried to add a caption to an existing [[File:]] on an article, but as it turned out, all I had to do was add text to the end of the string following the last pipe. When I tried to use |caption= it displayed the whole thing including caption= (example: "caption=flavortext" was displayed instead of just "flavortext").
Should this parameter be updated to reflect how it's used, or should it be marked as depreciated?
