This article will help you when you're uploading images, directing you to several easy to use templates to fill in the information about the image. Please be as accurate and informational as possible, as images without sources and/or licenses may be deleted at an admin's discretion.
Info template[]
After uploading the image, insert the Image Info template by copying this code:
{{Image Info
|Description=
|Author=
|Source=
|License=
}}
This inserts the following box into the page:
| Description | |
| Author / Rights holder | |
| Source | |
| License |
Adding image information[]
Description[]
Please add a short description or a name for the image. The description needs to be after the equal sign (" = "), but does not need to be contained in quotes (' " '). You may also insert some descriptive tags from this category. If you want to insert an already-made template, please choose one and then encase it in double brackets. An example would be:
{{Fanart}}
which would insert the following template into the description:
|
This image is fanart. It is not a canon representation of the subject. |
If you don't know the description, please try to find it before uploading. Images without descriptions may be deleted at the admin's discretion.
Author/Rights holder[]
Please add the name(s) of the author or rights holder for the image. The author/rights holder needs to be after the equal sign (" = "), but does not need to be contained in quotes (' " ').
If you don't know the name(s) of the author/rights holder, please try to find it before uploading. Images without author/rights holder information may be deleted at the admin's discretion.
Source[]
The source needs to be after the equal sign (" = "), but does not need to be contained in quotes (' " '). A valid source needs to contain information about a permission to use the image. Search engines like Google are no valid sources.
If you don't know the source, please try to find it before uploading. Images without author/rights holder information may be deleted at the admin's discretion.
License[]
Choose the adequate source tag from this category. The license needs to be after the equal sign (" = "), but does not need to be contained in quotes (' " '). If you want to insert an already-made template, please choose one and then encase it in double brackets. An example would be:
{{CopyrightedFreeUse}}
which would insert the following template into the license:
 Free Use
