Template parameters

Parameter	Description		Default	Status
Title	This is the original title given in the NARA catalog record.		empty	optional
Scope and content	If an item has a "Scope and content" tab in its catalog record, include it here. These are notes written by the archivists.		empty	optional
General notes	If an item has a "General note(s):" field in its catalog record, include it here. These are notes written by the archivists.		empty	optional
Description	Other notes by and description by Wikimedians can go here.		empty	optional
NAID ARC	This is the standard, unique ID which points to the item's specific catalog record in ARC (Archival Research Record). It is used to generate the URL for the record. This is absolutely required unless (rarely) the item is not cataloged in ARC, for example if it has been scanned independently by an on-site researcher.		empty	optional
Local identifier	This is an ID which does not have a standard form like ARC, but is used by the department which is responsible for the document. It is important if given, but only some documents have a local identifier.		empty	optional
Creator	This is the creator of the record, which is usually not the same as the author. Typically, this is the agency whose records contain the document uploaded.		empty	optional
Author	This is the writer, artist, photographer, videographer, etc. who actually made the document. These are often not part of the catalog records, or might only be noted as an "index term," and so must be added manually.		empty	optional
Location	Still Picture Records Section, Special Media Archives Services Division (NWCS-S), National Archives at College Park, 8601 Adelphi Road, College Park, MD, 20740-6001.		empty	optional
Date	Date of creation		empty	optional
Record group	The record group, series, and file group information can all be found in the "Hierarchy" tab. The "record group" is the collection-level division of records, which typically includes the records of an entire agency.		empty	optional
Record group NAID Record group ARC	Each record group should have its own ARC ID which will link to the record group's catalog record.		empty	optional
Series	The record group, series, and file group information can all be found in the "Hierarchy" tab. The "series" is a smaller subset of the record group arranged according to some unifying characteristic like a common author or event.		empty	optional
Series NAID Series ARC	Each series should have its own ARC ID which will link to the record group's catalog record.		empty	optional
File unit	The record group, series, and file group information can all be found in the "Hierarchy" tab. The "file unit" is another yet-smaller optional subgrouping of the series. Only some items belong to file units, while most will belong directly to a series.		empty	optional
File unit NAID File unit ARC	Each file unit, if one exists, should have its own ARC ID which will link to the record group's catalog record.		empty	optional
Variant control numbers	Generally, most items will have at least one variant control number listed, the obsolete "NAIL Control Number." There may also be multiple NAILs. These can be included for completeness here. There may be other special control numbers which should also be included. Use manual line breaks ("") to separate control numbers.		empty	optional
TIFF	Use "yes" to indicate that the file uploaded is a high-resolution TIFF master file of the original National Archives scan.		empty	optional
Text	Use "no" if there is no text to transcribe. (Note: Depends on the 'TIFF' parameter being set to "yes".)		empty	optional
Other versions	TIFF files are intended to be converted to JPEG for graphical documents and DjVu for textual documents. As well, TIFF files for multi-page documents will be uploaded as separate files. Use "Other versions" to display other pages for the same document as well as derivative files using <gallery> and labeling the pages and file formats with captions, as was done here.		empty	optional
Derivative	If the file is a derivative and not the original file, set this parameter to yes or similar in order to avoid the message about not changing the file.		empty	optional
medium	Field inherited from {{Artwork}}'s template.		empty	optional
dimensions	Field inherited from {{Artwork}}'s template.		empty	optional
institution	Field inherited from {{Artwork}}'s template. Use to overwrite the default value		{{Institution:National Archives and Records Administration}}	optional
references	Field inherited from {{Artwork}}'s template.		empty	optional
object history	Field inherited from {{Artwork}}'s template.		empty	optional
credit line	Field inherited from {{Artwork}}'s template.		empty	optional
inscriptions	Field inherited from {{Artwork}}'s template.		empty	optional
notes	Field inherited from {{Artwork}}'s template.		empty	optional
description	Alias for Description, to match other templates. Use one or the other, but not both.		empty	optional
