The fix is to open the SVG file in a text editor, find the <image> element, locate "image/jpg", change it to "image/jpeg" and re-save. At right is an example of this problem. The Commons SVG Checker looks for this problem; see Commons:Commons:Commons SVG Checker/KnownBugs#Checks for details.
This page is here as a placeholder for several pages about the Scalable Vector Graphics format in the Wikipedia namespace. For assistance with SVG see Wikipedia:Graphics Lab; For an introduction to graphics editing using SVG (as well as other formats) see Wikipedia:Graphics tutorials; For problems with rendering SVG in Wikipedia see Wikipedia ...
I have to note that even the Wikipedia SVG "previews" of the SVG images in the Wikipedia article on SVG images don't have selectable text. So, it may not be due to the errors reported in my SVG. There is the option of using a wikitable but IMO it's ugly. Jdbtwo 15:56, 22 January 2024 (UTC)
SVG images stored at Wikipedia or on the Wikimedia Commons aren't actually what you see in your browser when viewing Wikipedia articles. MediaWiki converts the SVG image to a PNG image. The SVG format is the working format of the stored image so that people can more easily convert images for use in different languages.
Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) is an XML-based vector image format for defining two-dimensional graphics, having support for interactivity and animation. The SVG specification is an open standard developed by the World Wide Web Consortium since 1999. SVG images are defined in a vector graphics format and stored in XML text files.
Wikipedia uses a command line program under unix to render the SVG into a PNG, such that browsers like IE can more readily render this image correctly. When you view the web-page you don't actually view the SVG until you click on it. What you see is a PNG that is automatically generated for a fixed resolution.
The clean SVG code with comment <!-- years are 10px wide, positions are 4px high in svg --> and repetitive path commands seem to imply generation with a custom program. It's not too difficult to replicate it with a Python script, given the source data.
Specify the IETF language tag (slang: langtag) for switch-translated SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) files. Some SVG files are multilingual; this parameter specifies which language to use. The langtag should be all lowercase (e.g., zh-hans rather than zh-Hans). Defaults to current Wikipedia language in article namespace or en in other
