Hello! The last picture I had on commons doesn't display (here: http://wiki.lokal-life.org/index.php?title=R%C3%A9seau_d%27eau_potable_de_Schoelcher) . I checked the name several times so I don't really get it. The only issue I see is that I may have created the page on the wiki with on the link for the picture BEFORE I uploaded the picture itself on Commons. I tought it was only some cookie issue but apparently not?

Do you have any idea apart from uploading it again on another name? Thanks!

you have to purge the page (add &action=purge to end of url) to clear cache. Commons only keeps track of image usages on wikimedia sites so there is no process to automstically refresh pages when the image changes outside wikimedia wikis (sort of. There are several types of caches. Its complicated. Certain changes will be instant)
