{{Image reference needed}} is a template used to identify user-made images such as graphs, charts, drawings, and maps in articles, particularly if questionable, that need a citation to a reliable source, either after the image's caption or on the image description page. This template produces the superscripted message Predloga:Image reference needed and is installed with no spaces directly after the image's caption.

When not to use
[uredi kodo]The {{Image reference needed}} template is intended for use when there is a general question of the verifiability of an image, or when an editor believes that a reference verifying the image should be provided. Other templates are available for other or more specific issues:
- For concerns about copyright status: see Wikipedia:Guide to image deletion instead.
- To challenge the contents of the caption: use {{Citation needed}} for captions, or fix it yourself.
- For issues of image placement, formatting, or size: see Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Images instead.
- Do not use this template because you disagree with the viewpoint or facts represented on an image. For example, images that you think are incorrect should be tagged with {{Dubious}}, and those which represent a non-neutral view should be tagged with {{POV statement}}. Being specific about the nature of the problem will help other editors correct it.
An image representing data or information (e.g., a graph) is usually considered verifiable if:
- the image repeats information cited elsewhere in the article (e.g., the article says that 30% of cancer deaths could be prevented by banning all tobacco and alcoholic beverages, and the image shows a graph of 30%),
- the image is similar to one published by any reliable source,
- the file page contains references to the data represented in the image.
Parameters
[uredi kodo]{{{date}}}: The date the tag was added.
