Source	Based on excellent images created by User:FML and uploaded to Commons as Sistema lacrimal.gif and Sistema lacrimal.svg.
Author	Since FML's vector image was broken, Erin_Silversmith took the bitmap version and vectorised it. The labels in Portuguese were replaced with letters, for internationalisation purposes. (The iris was redone in the second revision of this image, based on the photograph Image:Iris.eye.225px.jpg (automatically vectorised using Delineate). However, in the fifth revision, this was then replaced by a spoke-like design based on the original GIF.) To the right, there is an example of how the diagram can be used in an article. Note how the diagram is neat, and the labels can be Wikilinks. If a version with labels in a certain language is deemed necessary, it should be uploaded with the language suffix i.e. Tear system xx.svg where xx is the language code.
