Help:Images

This page explains the image syntax when editing the wiki. Before using images, your wiki must have file uploads enabled (see the for details) and you have to upload a file.

Syntax

 * ,,  , or  : Controls how the image is formatted
 * ,,  ,  : Controls the alignment of the image on the page
 * ,,  ,  ,  ,  ,  ,  : Controls the vertical alignment of the image on the page
 * : Resizes the image to the given width in pixels
 * : Must not end with "px"
 * Special cases:
 * : Displays the specified page when showing a djvu file
 * : Allows to link to an arbitrary title, URL or just nowhere (1.14+)
