This would list items in the ''File'' namespace, limited to a count of 3, formatted as a gallery using the <code>''Startall''</code> and <code>''Endall''</code> positions of the {{DPL|format}} syntax to specify gallery start and end. The <code>''Start''</code> position in the syntax specifies the <code>%PAGE%</code> (in this case the file page) followed by a line break <code><nowiki>\n</nowiki></code> to populate the MediaWiki gallery syntax needed. The <code>''Start''</code> and <code>''End''</code> (empty, not required) parts of the syntax are applied to each result in the list, so the file page name is fetched for each image and put on a new line to complete the gallery statement. See [[mw:Help:Images#Gallery syntax|gallery syntax]] on MediaWiki Wiki for more information on gallery syntax.

Please do not edit this page unless you're wanting to edit the manual itself, it is an example included in the manual.

Example

This would list items in the File namespace, formatted as a gallery using the Startall and Endall arguments of the format syntax to specify gallery start and end. The Start and End arguments are then applied to each result, so the file page names are fetched for each image, and put on a new line to complete the gallery statement.


Note: When DPL3 parser function syntax is used to create a gallery, the < and > characters must be replaced by « and » respectively (to escape them).

{{#dpl:
|namespace = File
|format    = «gallery mode="packed" widths="80px" heights="80px"»,%PAGE%\n,,«/gallery»
|count	    = 3
}}

Result

{{#dpl: |namespace = File |format = «gallery mode="packed" widths="80px" heights="80px"»,%PAGE%\n,,«/gallery» |count = 3 }}
