Help:Placing Images in Wikitext

From TTU College of Architecture

To place images on the wiki-web they have to be uploaded with the upload form. To view or search previously uploaded files go to the list of uploaded files, (re)uploads are also logged in the upload log, deletions in the deletion log.

The category tag links images to wiki pages. If images exist that have the same category tag as the page they will show in the viewer above. If the page is not categorized or if there are no images with the same category a default set of images will appear in the viewer.

To include a file in a page, use a link in one of the following forms:

• [[Image:File.jpg]] to use the full version of the file
• [[Image:File.jpg|200px|thumb|left|alternate text]] to use a 200 pixel-wide thumbnail in a box in the left margin with 'alternate text' as the description
• [[Media:File.pdf]] for directly linking to the file (useful for PDF and Word documents)

To upload multiple files, use the Multiple Upload page instead.

Inappropriate files will be deleted immediately, see the file deletion policy. All material submitted to the wiki is logged by user and must comply with the copyright policy.
