 All images added to this wiki must be "free-use".  That is, they must either by public domain or licensed by the copyright holder under a license that allows anyone to reuse the images.  It's important that we do not add images taken from other websites as these are usually not free-use and would be copyright violations.  See [[Help:Image copyright tags]] for more detail on licenses and how to tag your images.

 ==Using Images==
-<div style="border: 1px solid #CCCCCC; padding:1em; margin: 1em 0;">To use an image in an article, you simply surround the full name (including the "Image" part) in double square brackets:<br/><br/>

-'''<nowiki>[[Image:Example.jpg]]</nowiki>''' will give you: [[Image:Example.jpg]]<br clear=all></div>
+'''<nowiki>[[File:Example.jpg]]</nowiki>''' will give you: [[File:Example.jpg]]<br clear=all></div>
 <div style="border: 1px solid #CCCCCC; padding:1em; margin: 1em 0;">You can resize by adding the size in pixels between two pipes:<br/><br/>
-<nowiki>[[Image:Example.jpg</nowiki>'''|50px|''']] will give you: [[Image:Example.jpg|50px|]]<br clear="all"></div>
+<nowiki>[[File:Example.jpg</nowiki>'''|50px|''']] will give you: [[File:Example.jpg|50px|]]<br clear="all"></div>
 <div style="border: 1px solid #CCCCCC; padding:1em; margin: 1em 0;">
 You can make an image a thumbnail an image by adding "thumb" in the same way.  If a pipe is there from a previous variable, you don't need to add another:<br/><br/>
-<nowiki>[[Image:Example.jpg|50px</nowiki>'''|thumb|''']] will give you: [[Image:Example.jpg|50px|thumb|]]<br clear="all"></div>
+<nowiki>[[File:Example.jpg|50px</nowiki>'''|thumb|''']] will give you: [[File:Example.jpg|50px|thumb|]]<br clear="all"></div>
 <div style="border: 1px solid #CCCCCC; padding:1em; margin: 1em 0;">This is automatically formatted to the right of the page.  You can change this by adding "left" or "center":<br/><br/>
-<nowiki>[[Image:Example.jpg|50px|thumb</nowiki>'''|left|''']] will give you: [[Image:Example.jpg|50px|thumb|left|]]<br clear="all"></div>
+<nowiki>[[File:Example.jpg|50px|thumb</nowiki>'''|left|''']] will give you: [[File:Example.jpg|50px|thumb|left|]]<br clear="all"></div>
 <div style="border: 1px solid #CCCCCC; padding:1em; margin: 1em 0;">Anything after the last pipe becomes the alt text or the caption:<br/><br/>
-<nowiki>[[Image:Example.jpg|50px|thumb|left|</nowiki>'''Alt''']] will give you: [[Image:Example.jpg|50px|thumb|left|Alt]]<br clear="all"></div>
+<nowiki>[[File:Example.jpg|50px|thumb|left|</nowiki>'''Alt''']] will give you: [[File:Example.jpg|50px|thumb|left|Alt]]<br clear="all"></div>
-<div style="border: 1px solid #CCCCCC; padding:1em; margin: 1em 0;">To link to a file without showing it on the page, you can use "Media" instead of "Image":<br/><br/>

 <div style="border: 1px solid #CCCCCC; padding:1em; margin: 1em 0;">Finally, to create a gallery of images you can use the <nowiki><gallery></nowiki> tag:<br/><br/>
 '''&lt;gallery><br/>'''
-'''Image:Example.jpg|1<br/>'''
+'''File:Example.jpg|1<br/>'''
-'''Image:Example.jpg|2<br/>'''
