 | This template is used on approximately 45,000 pages and changes may be widely noticed. Test changes in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them. |

This template accepts licenses as unnamed parameters, which should be the names of image license templates, and displays them as options to choose between in a multi-license. If the image was not uploaded by its author, you can change "I" at the start of the template to another name by setting the author= parameter.
The optional migration= parameter corresponds to keywords in the {{License migration}} template series and is used to track the license update process for GFDL images.
Here are 4 examples of multi-license templates along with links to their component parts:
| {{Self |CC BY-SA 3.0| GFDL}} |
| {{Self |CC BY-SA 3.0, 2.5, 2.0, 1.0 |GFDL}} |
| {{Self |CC BY-SA 3.0}} |
| {{Self |CC BY 3.0}} |
