byUser

The file specified with parameter 1, or each file specified with parameters 1 to n, can also be linked with the name of its author.
A value given with the parameter "by=" will be assigned to each file which does not have an individual author assignment with by_n.
An individual author assignment can either specify an author, or with no valuebyn=that no "by" should exist for that filen.
The 'global' parameter "by=user"is for all files that neither get an own author namebyn=user,nor are excludedbyn=.

Abbrevition:

In simple cases the|by=can be abbreviated with "/":
{{Derived from|Example.jpg/Example|example.svg/Extra}}
renders as
This file was derived from:

• Example.jpgbyExample
• Example.svgbyExtra
  

Colon

The template finishes its display with anew line;when the template is used just to display the text, like
{{Derived from}} - This file was derived from: which will not be appropriate if continuation in the same line is required; thenew linecan be avoided by using a colon instead of the missing user name, e.g.
{{Derived from|by=:}}{{F|Example.svg}}{{By|example}}<br /> - This file was derived from:Example.svgbyexample
without inbetween spaces; a finalnew linecan be forced manually, as shown, or by passing "br" as a second parameter to{{By}}.
