Help:Managing files

If file uploads are enabled, you can upload certain types of files to the wiki. This is particularly useful for uploading images, which you want to place on an article, but you can also upload other types of files.

Upload a file

 * 1) Prepare the file for upload. Make sure the file is exactly as you want it.
 * 2) In the sidebar, under “”, click “.”
 * 3) Click “Browse” next to the “” to locate the file on your computer (the name of the “browse” button depends on your web browser).
 * 4) Change the “” to something descriptive, if necessary.
 * 5) Fill in the “,” if necessary.
 * 6) Click the “” button.

If it is a large file, you may need to wait several seconds for the upload to complete.
