Manual:Image table

The image table describes images and other uploaded files. However, the image description pages are stored like other pages. See also: Manual:Image Administration.

DESCRIBE image; in version 1.4 gives the following:

 * img_user: User ID of who uploaded the file.
 * img_user_text: User name of who uploaded the file.
 * img_timestamp: Timestamp of when upload took place.

Some of this information was adapted from  in the MediaWiki   directory.
