Multilingual file captions are part of MediaInfo , an extension for handling structured data for files. A caption contains a short description about a file. Captions are limited to 255 characters in length; captions cannot contain markup (like Wikitext links or HTML) and do not support external links. You can add captions in different languages.

Captions are added by clicking on the pencil icon in the top right corner. This opens up the editing view.
