The Royal Palace of Amsterdam is a royal residence in Amsterdam, Netherlands. Opened in 1655 as a town hall, its main architect was Jacob van Campen, who designed the building in the Dutch Baroque style. Louis Bonaparte became King of Holland in 1806 and established his court in Amsterdam, turning the town hall into a palace; it has been used by Dutch monarchs since then, although their main residence is Huis ten Bosch in The Hague. The Royal Palace of Amsterdam is used for entertaining and official functions during state visits and other official receptions, such as New Year receptions. This photograph shows the facade of the Royal Palace as seen from Dam Square in 2016. Photograph credit: Diego Delso

Usage
This template can be used to notify uploaders and nominators of a featured picture scheduled for POTD by placing a message at the bottom of their user talk pages. This is most easily done by employing the "New section" link at the top of the page and substituting the template using the code below, leaving the subject field blank since the template already generates a heading. There are four unnamed parameters (three required, one optional) and two named parameters (both optional).
Example usage
- Blurb layout (default):
{{ subst:NotifyPOTD | [Salutation] | [File:]Example.png | 2026-08-16 [| Optional comments] [| action=uploaded] [| display=blurb] }}- Thumbnail layout:
{{ subst:NotifyPOTD | [Salutation] | [File:]Example.png | 2026-08-16 [| Optional comments] [| action=uploaded] | display=thumb [| size=200px] }}
- The first parameter (required) provides a customizable salutation, which defaults to "Hi [username]," if left blank (this is done by retaining the pipe character so that it will still be passed as the first parameter).
- The second parameter (required) is the file name of the featured picture. The prefix
File:can either be included or omitted. If this is a multiple POTD (involving a random selection of more than one related image), providing the inputmultiplein place of a file name will generate a slightly different wording to reflect this. All featured pictures that form part of a multiple POTD normally have the same uploader or nominator (possibly the same user). - The third parameter (required) is the date of the scheduled POTD appearance, which can be given in any valid format, but YYYY-MM-DD is preferred, as above.
- The fourth parameter (optional) provides a space for additional comments about the POTD selection. No text is added if the parameter is undefined or left blank.
- The parameter
|action=(optional) replaces the default phrase "uploaded or nominated". - The parameter
|display=(optional) takes two possible values:blurb, which displays the standard layout of the POTD with the blurb as seen on the Main Page underneath the message, andthumb, which displays the POTD image as a thumbnail floating on the right with the article name as the caption. The blurb layout is displayed by default if this parameter is undefined. An example of these two layouts can be seen on the testcases page.- The parameter
|size=(optional) can further be used to control the dimensions of the image in the thumbnail layout; if undefined, the default thumbnail size as set in the user preferences is used.
