Category:Advertisements

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/54164025/mediawiki-how-to-use-all-images-from-a-category-in-a-gallery If you didn't mind using a different extension, Cargo can do this pretty easily (and lots of other useful stuff as well).

In Template:Artwork do something like:

{{#cargo_declare: _table = artworks | description = Wikitext | artist = Page }}

Description

{{{description}}}

Artist

[[{{{artist}}}]]

And then where you want the gallery (e.g. on a page for an artist), do something like:

{{#cargo_query: tables = artworks |fields = _pageName, description, artist |where = artist = 'Advertisements' |format = gallery |caption field = description |show filename = 0 |show dimensions = 0 |show bytes = 0 }} This assumes that the Artwork template is used on files' pages; if you wanted a mainspace page for each artwork, you could still do something similar but would have to introduce a separate image field that points to the actual file.
