Template:Rotate
This image (or all images in this article or category) needs to be rotated. When rotating JPEGs by 90, 180, or 270 degrees, perform a lossless rotation using a tool such as jpegtran. For more help and a notice that the JPEG rotation cannot always be completely lossless, see Commons:Media for cleanup#Sideways pictures or pictures with noticeable camera tilt.
If the thumbnail on the right side is in the correct orientation, please just purge this image (maybe refresh your browser cache) and remove this template.

This template tags images needing rotation to alert SteinsplitterBot to fix them.
The template automatically sets the following categories: Category:Images requiring rotation or Category:Images requiring rotation by bot
Usage
{{Rotate |1= }}
Images bearing this template are automatically added to Category:Images requiring rotation, a subcategory of Category:Images for cleanup. If the parameter |degree=0/90/180/270 is added, the image will automatically be sorted in Category:Images requiring rotation by bot, and SteinsplitterBot will rotate it. The parameters |nobot= and |reason= are only used by the bot. Do not add {{Rotate}} template at sound files, text documents or video files.
