I set up the site on Wikipedia since there is that template {{start
tab}} which can be used to create a tabbed interface for usage on
portals and projects, help pages and user pages. I had looked for the
equivalent on commons but with little or no success. I have also tried
importing the template and it seems there was something I was not doing
right plus I do not have import rights on commons.After trying all that I decided to set up the page in Wikipedia. I would also like it to stay on commons and assistance to that end is welcome. ./Stephen Open source rocks and rocks are free.
