You can format your text by using wiki markup. This consists of normal characters like asterisks, apostrophes, or equal signs which have a special function in the wiki, sometimes depending on their position. For example, to format a word in ''italic'', you include it in two pairs of apostrophes like <code><nowiki>''this''</nowiki></code>.

MediaWiki ignores single line breaks. To start a new paragraph, leave an empty line. You can force a line break within a paragraph with the HTML tag <tvar name=1>{{tag|br|single}}</tvar>.

== Inserting symbols == <!--T:132-->

<!--T:133-->
Symbols and other special characters not available on your keyboard can be inserted in a multitude of ways. Many [http://www.howtogeek.com/210824/how-to-quickly-type-special-characters-on-any-computer-smartphone-or-tablet/ Operating Systems and browsers] allow you to insert special characters through a menu option or Operating System panel. Additionally, you can use the WikiEditor or [[VisualEditor/Special characters|VisualEditor]] to insert them into the edit screen.

<!--T:166-->
As a last resort, you can use a special sequence of characters. Those sequences are called HTML entities. For example, the following sequence (entity) '''&amp;rarr;''' when inserted will be shown as <ins>right arrow</ins> HTML symbol &rarr; and '''&amp;mdash;''' when inserted will be shown as an <ins>em dash</ins> HTML symbol &mdash;. </translate>
----
{{note|1=<translate><!--T:134--> Hover over any symbol to reveal the entity that produces it.  Some symbols not available in the current font will appear as empty squares.</translate>}}

See the list of all HTML entities on the Wikipedia article [[wikipedia:List of HTML entities|List of HTML entities]]. Additionally, MediaWiki supports two non-standard entity reference sequences: <code>&amp;רלמ;</code> and <code>&amp;رلم;</code> which are both considered equivalent to <code>&amp;rlm;</code> which is a [[wikipedia:Right-to-left mark|right-to-left mark]]. (Used when combining right to left languages with left to right languages in the same page.)

There are five types of hypertext links in MediaWiki: 

<!--T:2-->
# '''[[<tvar name=internal>#Internal links</tvar>|Internal links]]''' to other pages in the same wiki (commonly called "wikilinks")</translate>
<translate>
<!--T:125-->
# '''[[<tvar name=external>#External links</tvar>|External links]]''' to pages at other websites</translate>
<translate>

<translate>
<!--T:127-->
# '''[[<tvar name=interwiki>#Interwiki links</tvar>|Interwiki links]]''' to other websites using special prefixes registered in advance</translate>
<translate>
<!--T:128-->
# '''[[<tvar name=interlang>#Interlanguage links</tvar>|Interlanguage links]]''' to other wikis registered as different language versions of the current wiki</translate>

<translate>
<!--T:87-->
Please note that this list does not include [[<tvar name=h-cat>Special:MyLanguage/Help:Categories</tvar>|category links]] and [[<tvar name=h-img>Special:MyLanguage/Help:Images</tvar>|file links]], which are used to place pages into categories and display images or other media files, respectively.
</translate>
__TOC__

<translate>
== Internal links == <!--T:3-->
</translate>
<translate><!--T:4--> To [[<tvar name=1>Special:MyLanguage/Help:Editing pages</tvar>|create]] a so-called internal link to a page on the same wiki (a "wikilink"), use double square brackets wiki markup, <code><nowiki>[[like this]]</nowiki></code>.</translate> <translate><!--T:129--> When you preview or save your changes, you will see a link that can be followed to the target page.</translate>
<translate><!--T:130--> If the page exists the link is displayed in blue (like the word "create" in the first sentence of this paragraph); if the page does not exist, the link appears red (so the <code><nowiki>[[like this]]</nowiki></code> link is actually rendered [[like this]]). Note that the colors could be different if the color scheme of the wiki has been changed from the default.</translate>
<translate><!--T:131--> Following such a "redlink" to a missing page (whether or not it is actually red) will usually enable the user to create the page.</translate>

<translate>
<!--T:88-->
To markup any arbitrary string of text (not necessarily a page title) as a link, use a "vertical bar" or "pipe" character, like this: <code><nowiki>[[Help:Categories|category links]]</nowiki></code> results in the link [[Help:Categories|category links]].

<!--T:5-->
The first letter of the link target is usually not case-sensitive (unless the wiki is configured otherwise), meaning links can be capitalized or not (so [[How to contribute]] and [[how to contribute]] are equivalent). However, the case of every ''subsequent'' letter must match the target page exactly (so [[How to contribute]] and [[How To Contribute]] are ''not'' equivalent). Spaces in the page title may be represented as underscores (so [[How to contribute]] and [[How_to_contribute]] are again equivalent), but using underscores in links will make them visible in the page text (but this can be prevented by using a "pipe").
</translate>

<translate><!--T:89--> If the page title you are linking to is that of the page you are editing, the result is not a hyperlink at all but simply bold text (for example, on this page the markup <tvar name=1><code><nowiki>[[</nowiki>{{FULLPAGENAME}}]]</code></tvar> gives the result <tvar name=2>[[{{FULLPAGENAME}}]]</tvar>).</translate>
<translate><!--T:145--> If you're trying to create a wikilink to the current page, you probably want to link to a specific ''section'' or to an ''anchor'' within the page; see the examples below.</translate>

<translate>
<!--T:90-->
MediaWiki uses the <tvar name=1>{{ll|Manual:Pagelinks table|pagelinks}}</tvar> table to keep track of internal wikilinks.

To [[<tvar name=h-edit>Special:MyLanguage/Help:Editing pages</tvar>|create]] an external link, usually to a page at a different website, enclose the URL followed by space and the link text in single square brackets (see examples below).

== Interwiki links == <!--T:63-->
</translate>
<translate><!--T:64--> Interwiki links are internal-style links to other websites (which do not have to be wikis, despite the name).</translate>
<translate><!--T:138--> For example, you can link to the article https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunflower by typing <code><nowiki>[[wikipedia:Sunflower]]</nowiki></code> or, on this wiki, the shorter <code><nowiki>[[w:Sunflower]]</nowiki></code>.</translate>
<translate><!--T:139--> Both will result in a link [[wikipedia:Sunflower]].</translate>
<translate><!--T:140--> This works because by default MediaWiki configures <code>wikipedia:</code> as an "interwiki prefix" that turns into <nowiki>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/</nowiki> when used inside <nowiki>[[ ]]</nowiki>.</translate>
<translate><!--T:141--> (''It may not work if the admin of your wiki has changed the setting.'') Unlike internal links, interwiki links do not use page existence detection, so an interwiki link will appear blue even if the page does not exist on the remote wiki.</translate>

<translate>
<!--T:65-->
Similar to internal page links, you can create piped links, with alternate link label, e.g. <code><nowiki>[[wikipedia:Sunflower|big yellow flower]]</nowiki></code> is the link [[wikipedia:Sunflower|big yellow flower]] and <code><nowiki>[[wikipedia:Sunflower|]]</nowiki></code> is the link [[wikipedia:Sunflower|Sunflower]].

<!--T:66-->
Basically, interwiki links are abbreviations for commonly-used longer external links. A very similar link could be created as  <code><nowiki>[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunflower big yellow flower]</nowiki></code>.

<!--T:67-->
More details are at <tvar name=2>{{ll|Manual:Interwiki}}</tvar> and [[m:Help:Interwiki linking]]. Your wiki may have a [[Special:Interwiki]] page listing the interwiki prefixes it supports; {{git file | file=maintenance/interwiki.list | text=here is the default interwiki list}}. You can edit the <tvar name=1>{{ll|Manual:Interwiki table|interwiki}}</tvar> table on your site.

=== Interlanguage links === <!--T:68-->

<!--T:69-->
If your wiki has other language versions, you may find [[<tvar name=mainill>Special:MyLanguage/Interlanguage_links</tvar>|interlanguage links]] in the [[<tvar name=sidebar>Special:MyLanguage/Help:Navigation#Sidebar</tvar>|sidebar]], just below [[<tvar name=toolbox>Special:MyLanguage/Help:Navigation#Toolbox</tvar>|toolbox]] in a section titled “<tvar name=1>{{lcfirst:{{int|otherlanguages}}}}</tvar>.”
</translate>

<translate><!--T:70--> In wiki markup an interlanguage link looks very much like an interwiki link, but behaves similarly to a [[<tvar name=1>Special:MyLanguage/Categorylinks</tvar>|category link]] in that it is rendered in a special way.</translate>
<translate><!--T:147--> While category links appear in a special list at the bottom of the page (usually), interlanguage links appear in a special list in the [[<tvar name=1>Special:MyLanguage/sidebar</tvar>|sidebar]] of the page (or elsewhere, depending on the wiki's configuration and the [[<tvar name=2>Special:MyLanguage/Manual:Skins</tvar>|skin]] used).</translate>

<translate><!--T:108--> The purpose of interlanguage links is to link pages on the same topics in different languages.</translate> <translate><!--T:146--> To create an interlanguage link, type {{<tvar name=1>tmpl|0=<code><nowiki>[[</nowiki>$1:$2<nowiki>]]</nowiki></code></tvar>|''language prefix''|''page name''}} anywhere in the page (preferably at the bottom, like category links); the language prefix is the prefix specified at your wiki for the other language version (typically the [[wikipedia:List of ISO 639-1 codes|ISO 639-1 language code]]).</translate>
<translate><!--T:83--> The interlanguage link is unilateral, it does not point back from that page in the other language.</translate>
<translate><!--T:84--> For that purpose, an equivalent back-link needs to be placed there as well.</translate>
<translate><!--T:85--> It does not work like the "Edit links" in the languages section of Wikipedia-language versions.</translate>
<translate><!--T:86--> But it can be used across all name spaces, including 'User:' to point to ones other profiles in other languages.</translate>

<translate>
<!--T:71-->
If you want to make the interlanguage link appear at a specific place in the content of the page rather than in the sidebar, add a colon before the language prefix:
:<code><nowiki>[[:en:Sunflower]]</nowiki></code> &rarr; '''[[:en:Sunflower]]'''

<!--T:72-->
When a link is both interwiki and interlanguage, the order is '''[[wikipedia:en:Sunflower]]'''.

<!--T:109-->
For more information, see [[<tvar name=meta>m:Help:Interwiki linking#Interlanguage links</tvar>|m:Help:Interwiki linking#Interlanguage links]].

== Limits == <!--T:119-->

<!--T:111-->
An internal wiki link is limited by maximum [[page title]] size.

<translate><!--T:1--> This page explains the '''image''' syntax when editing the wiki.</translate>
<translate><!--T:2--> You or another user must usually [[<tvar name=1>Special:MyLanguage/Help:Managing files</tvar>|upload an image]] before you can use it on a page.</translate>

<translate><!--T:3--> Images that are stored on a MediaWiki server are usually rendered by using the <tvar name=1><code>File:</code></tvar> namespace prefix (but the legacy <tvar name=2><code>Image:</code></tvar> namespace prefix is still supported as a synonym) as the target of a MediaWiki link.</translate>
<translate><!--T:4--> The alternate <tvar name=media><code>Media:</code></tvar> namespace prefix is also usable to reference the original media file content (for rendering or downloading it separately, out of any MediaWiki page).</translate>

<translate>
== Supported media types for images == <!--T:5-->

<!--T:6-->
The following file formats are supported by default:
</translate>

* <code>.jpg</code> <translate><!--T:255--> or</translate> <code>.jpeg</code> - <translate><!--T:7--> bitmap image compressed in the standard JPEG format (this lossy format is most suitable for photographs).</translate>
* <code>.png</code> - <translate><!--T:8--> bitmap image in the ''[[w:Portable Network Graphics|Portable Network Graphics]]'' format (specified by the ''W3 Consortium'').</translate>
* <code>.gif</code> - <translate><!--T:9--> bitmap image in the legacy ''Graphics Interchange Format''.</translate>

<translate>
<!--T:10-->
Other formats used on Wikimedia, and commonly enabled elsewhere (these may require extra set-up beyond what is enabled by default):
</translate>

* <code>.svg</code> - <translate><!--T:11--> scalable image in the ''Scalable Vector Graphics'' format (specified by the ''W3 Consortium'').</translate> <translate><!--T:12--> See [[<tvar name=1>Special:MyLanguage/Manual:Image Administration#SVG</tvar>|Manual:Image Administration#SVG]].</translate>
* <code>.tiff</code> - <translate><!--T:13--> Tagged image format.</translate> <translate><!--T:14--> Often used for high-resolution archival photographs.</translate> <translate><!--T:15--> Often used with <tvar name=1>{{ll|Extension:PagedTiffHandler}}</tvar>.</translate>
* <code>.ogg</code>, <code>.oga</code>, <code>.ogv</code> - <translate><!--T:16--> Ogg multimedia (audio or video).</translate> <translate><!--T:17--> Not an image format, but treated similarly.</translate> <translate><!--T:18--> Often used with <tvar name=1>{{ll|Extension:TimedMediaHandler}}</tvar></translate>
* <code>.pdf</code> - <translate><!--T:19--> multipaged documents in the ''Portable Document Format'' (initially specified by ''Adobe'').</translate> <translate><!--T:20--> Often used in conjunction with <tvar name=1>{{ll|Extension:PdfHandler}}</tvar></translate>
* <code>.djvu</code> - <translate><!--T:21--> multipaged bitmap documents in the ''DejaVu'' format (most often, scans of books).</translate> <translate><!--T:22--> See <tvar name=1>{{ll|Manual:How to use DjVu with MediaWiki}}</tvar></translate>
<translate>
<!--T:23-->
*: Only a single page of a <tvar name=1><code>.pdf</code></tvar> or <tvar name=2><code>.djvu</code></tvar> file is shown at one time.

<!--T:24-->
Other media types may be supported, but it may not be possible to display them inline.

== Rendering a single image == <!--T:25-->

=== Syntax === <!--T:26-->

<!--T:27-->
The full syntax for displaying an image is:
</translate>
 <nowiki>[[</nowiki>File:''filename.extension''|''options''|''caption'']]

<translate>
<!--T:28-->
where ''options'' can be empty or containing one or more of the following lower-case words, separated by pipes ('''|'''):

<!--T:29-->
* ''[[<tvar name=1>#Format</tvar>|Format]]'' option: '''border''', and one of '''frameless''', '''frame''' (or '''framed'''), or '''thumb''' (or '''thumbnail''').</translate> Note: '''border''' can be used in combination with '''frameless''' but will be ignored if used with one of the other options.
<translate>
<!--T:30-->
*: Controls how the rendered image is formatted and embedded in the rest of the page.</translate>
<translate>
<!--T:31-->
* ''[[<tvar name=1>#Size and frame</tvar>|Resizing]]'' option: one of</translate>
<translate>
<!--T:32-->
** ''{width}'''''px''' — Resizes the image to fit within the given maximum width in pixels, without restricting its height.</translate> (<translate><!--T:264--> Only whole-number pixel values are supported.</translate> <translate><!--T:223--> A space character between the width value and "px" is permitted.</translate>)
<translate>
<!--T:33-->
** '''x'''''{height}'''''px''' — Resizes the image to fit within the given maximum height in pixels, without restricting its width.</translate> <translate><!--T:265--> Only whole-number pixel values are supported.</translate> <translate><!--T:266--> A space character between the height value and "px" is permitted.</translate>
<translate>
<!--T:34-->
** ''{width}'''''x'''''{height}'''''px''' — Resizes the image to fit within the given width and height in pixels.</translate> <translate><!--T:267--> Only whole-number pixel values are supported.</translate> <translate><!--T:268--> A space character between the width value and "px" is permitted.</translate>
<translate>
<!--T:35-->
** '''upright''' — Resizes an image to fit within reasonable dimensions, according to user preferences (suitable for images whose height is larger than width).</translate> <translate><!--T:224--> Setting <tvar name=1><code>|upright=1.0|</code></tvar> will display the image at the user's default image width.</translate> <translate><!--T:225--> <tvar name=1><code>|upright=2.0|</code></tvar> will display the image at double the user's default width.</translate>
<translate>
<!--T:226-->
*: The image will always retain its aspect ratio.</translate>
<translate>
<!--T:227-->
*: Images in non-scalable media types can be reduced in size, but not increased; e.g., bitmap images cannot be scaled up.</translate>
<translate>
<!--T:228-->
*: The <tvar name=1><code>upright</code></tvar> setting does not require an equals sign, i.e. <tvar name=2><code>|upright 2.0|</code></tvar> works the same as <code>|upright=2.0|</code>.</translate>
<translate>
<!--T:229-->
*: When used without a value or an equals sign (e.g., <tvar name=1><code>|upright|</code></tvar>), defaults to <tvar name=2><code>|upright=0.75|</code></tvar> (although <tvar name=3><code>|upright=|</code></tvar> is the same as <tvar name=4><code>|upright=1.0|</code></tvar>)</translate>
<translate>
<!--T:37-->
*: The default maximum size depends on the ''format'' and the internal image dimensions (according to its media type).</translate>
<translate>
<!--T:38-->
* ''[[<tvar name=1>#Horizontal alignment</tvar>|Horizontal alignment]]'' option: one of '''left''', '''right''', '''center''', '''none'''.</translate> <translate><!--T:234--> If multiple of these options are present, only the first one will be used</translate>
<translate>
<!--T:39-->
*: Controls the horizontal alignment (and inline/block or floating styles) of the image within a text (no default value).</translate>
<translate>
<!--T:40-->
* ''[[<tvar name=1>#Vertical alignment</tvar>|Vertical alignment]] option'': one of '''baseline''', '''sub''', '''super''', '''top''', '''text-top''', '''middle''', '''bottom''', '''text-bottom'''</translate>
<translate>
<!--T:41-->
*: Controls the vertical alignment of a non-floating inline image with the text before or after the image, and in the same block (the default vertical alignment is '''middle''').</translate>
<translate>
<!--T:42-->
* ''[[<tvar name=1>#Altering the default link target</tvar>|Link]] option'': one of</translate>
<translate>
<!--T:43-->
** '''<tvar name=1>link</tvar>='''''{target}'' — Allows to change the target (to an arbitrary page title, or URL) of the generated link, activable on the rendered image surface; e.g. <tvar name=code><code><nowiki>[[File:Example.jpg|20px|link=http://www.wikipedia.org]]</nowiki></code></tvar> renders as <tvar name=code2>[[File:Example.jpg|20px|link=http://www.wikipedia.org]]</tvar> (external link), or <tvar name=code3><code><nowiki>[[File:Example.jpg|20px|link=MediaWiki]]</nowiki></code></tvar> renders as <tvar name=code4>[[File:Example.jpg|20px|link=MediaWiki]]</tvar> (internal link).</translate>
<translate>
<!--T:44-->
** '''<tvar name=2>link</tvar>=''' (with an empty value) —  (<tvar name=1>[[rev:41727|MediaWiki 1.14+]]</tvar>) Displays an image without any activable link; e.g. <tvar name=code1><code><nowiki>[[</nowiki>File:Example.jpg|20px|link=]]</code></tvar> renders as <tvar name=code2>[[File:Example.jpg|20px|link=]]</tvar>.</translate>
<translate>
<!--T:235-->
*:If there is a space character between <tvar name=1><code>link</code></tvar> and the equals sign, the link statement will be treated as a caption.</translate>
<translate>
<!--T:254-->
*:Including some HTML character equivalents, like <tvar name=1><code>%22</code></tvar> for <tvar name=2><code>"</code></tvar>, can cause the link statement to be treated as a caption (see <tvar name=3>[[phabricator:T306216]]</tvar>).
</translate>
<!--*** '''!''' Link does '''not''' work with thumb, thumbnail or frame. (This works for external and internal links)-->
*: <translate><!--T:45--> '''!''' for MW 1.24 and lower: If you set <code>|link=|</code> (empty), then no <code>title</code> will be rendered. (See [[phabricator:T23454]].)</translate>
<translate>
<!--T:46-->
* Other specific options:</translate>
<translate>
<!--T:47-->
** '''<tvar name=2>alt</tvar>='''''{alternative text}'' — (<tvar name=1>[[rev:41837|MediaWiki 1.14+]]</tvar>) Defines the alternative text (maps to the HTML attribute <code>alt="..."</code> of the generated <tvar name=3>{{tag|img|single}}</tvar> element) of an image that will be rendered if either the referenced image cannot be downloaded and embedded, or if the support media must use the alternative description text (e.g. when using a Braille reader or with accessibility options set by the user in its browser).</translate>
<translate>
<!--T:236-->
*:If there is a space character between <tvar name=1><code>alt</code></tvar> and the equals sign, the alt statement will be treated as a caption.</translate>
<translate>
<!--T:48-->
** '''<tvar name=1>page</tvar>='''''{number}'' — Renders the specified page number (currently only applicable when showing a .djvu or .pdf file).</translate>
<translate>
<!--T:49-->
** '''<tvar name=1>class</tvar>='''''{html class}'' — (<tvar name=2>MediaWiki 1.20+</tvar>) Defines classes (maps to the HTML attribute <tvar name=3><code>class="..."</code></tvar> of the generated <tvar name=4>{{tag|img|single}}</tvar> element).</translate>
<translate>
<!--T:50-->
** '''<tvar name=1>lang</tvar>='''''{language code}'' — (<tvar name=2>MediaWiki 1.22+</tvar>) For SVG files containing [http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG/struct.html#SwitchElement &lt;switch&gt;] statements varying on a ''systemLanguage'' attribute, selects what language to render the file in.</translate> <translate><!--T:221--> The default is the page language (defaults to project default language on most projects).</translate>

<translate><!--T:51--> If a parameter does not match any of the other possibilities, it is assumed to be the caption text.</translate>
<translate><!--T:237--> If more than one non-parameter string is present, the final non-parameter string will be used as the caption.</translate>
<translate><!--T:52--> Caption text shows below the image in '''thumb''' and '''frame''' formats, or as tooltip text in any other format.</translate>
<translate><!--T:53--> Caption text displayed in the '''thumb''' and '''frame''' formats may contain wiki links and other formatting.</translate>
<translate><!--T:54--> MediaWiki extensions can add additional options.</translate>

<translate>
<!--T:55-->
If 'alt' is not specified and a caption is provided, the alternative text will be created automatically from the caption, stripped of formatting, except when in ''thumb'' or ''frame'' mode since the caption is already readable by screen readers in that case.
</translate>

{{note|1=<translate><!--T:251--> The actual default behavior is to display the multimedia file in its full size.</translate> <translate><!--T:252--> This may lead to responsive problems if the file width is bigger than the page.</translate> <translate><!--T:253--> See the Task <tvar name=1>[[phab:T113101]]</tvar> for further details.</translate>}}

<translate>
=== Format === <!--T:56-->

<!--T:57-->
The following table shows the effect of all available formats.
</translate>

{|class="wikitable plainlinks"
|-
!<translate><!--T:58--> Description</translate>
!<translate><!--T:59--> You type</translate>
!<translate><!--T:60--> You get</translate>
{{ {{TNTN|Help:Images/frame}}|frame=|ex=<translate><!--T:61--> no format specified</translate>|float=no|inline=yes|render caption=no}}
{{ {{TNTN|Help:Images/frame}}|frame=border|ex=<translate><!--T:62--> '''border''' results in a very small gray border</translate>|float=no|inline=yes|render caption=no}}
{{ {{TNTN|Help:Images/frame}}|frame=frameless|ex=<translate><!--T:63--> '''frameless''', like thumbnail, respect user preferences for image width, but without border and no right float</translate>|float=no|inline=yes|render caption=no}}
{{ {{TNTN|Help:Images/frame}}|frame=frameless|2=border|ex=<translate><!--T:64--> '''frameless''' and '''border'''</translate>|float=no|inline=yes|render caption=no}}
{{ {{TNTN|Help:Images/frame}}|frame=frame|ex='''frame'''|float=yes|inline=no|render caption=yes}}
{{ {{TNTN|Help:Images/frame}}|frame=thumb|ex=<translate><!--T:65--> '''thumb''' or '''thumbnail'''</translate>|float=yes|inline=no|render caption=yes}}
|}

<translate><!--T:66--> When the height of an image in thumbnail is bigger than its width (i.e. in portrait orientation rather than landscape) and you find it too large, you may try the option <code>upright=N</code>, where N is the image's aspect ratio (its width divided by its height, defaulting to 0.75).</translate>
<translate><!--T:67--> The alternative is to specify the desired maximum height (in pixels) explicitly.</translate>

<translate>
<!--T:68-->
Note that by writing <code>thumb={filename}</code>, you can use a different image for the thumbnail.

=== Size and frame === <!--T:69-->

<!--T:70-->
Among different formats, the effect of the size parameter may be different, as shown below.

<!--T:71-->
* For how it appears when its size is not specified, see [[<tvar name=1>#Format</tvar>|Format]] section above.</translate>
<translate>
<!--T:72-->
* When the format is not specified, or only <code>border</code>ed, the size can be both reduced and enlarged to any specified size.</translate>
<translate>
<!--T:73-->
* In the examples below, the original size of the image is 400×267 pixels.</translate>
<translate>
<!--T:74-->
* An image with <code>frame</code> always '''ignores''' the size specification; the original image will be reduced if it exceeds the maximum size defined in user preferences, and the page information will display a Linter error.</translate>
<translate>
<!--T:75-->
* The size of an image with <code>thumb</code> or <code>frameless</code> can be reduced, but cannot be enlarged beyond the original size of the image.
</translate>

|}

<translate>
=== Horizontal alignment === <!--T:79-->

<!--T:80-->
Note that when using the <code>frame</code> or <code>thumb[nail]</code> formats, the default horizontal alignment will be ''right'' for left-to-right languages, and ''left'' for right-to-left languages.

|}

<translate>
=== Vertical alignment === <!--T:89-->
</translate>
<translate><!--T:90--> The vertical alignment options take effect only if the image '''is''' rendered as an inline element and '''is not''' floating.</translate>
<translate><!--T:91--> They alter the way the inlined image will be vertically aligned with the text present in the same block before and/or after this image on the same rendered row.</translate>

<translate>
<!--T:92-->
Note that the rendered line of text where inline images are inserted (and the lines of text rendered after the current one) may be moved down (this will increase the line-height conditionally by additional line spacing, just as it may occur with spans of text with variable font sizes, or with superscripts and subscripts) to allow the image height to be fully displayed with this alignment constraint.

<!--T:94-->
Notes:

<!--T:95-->
# The "middle" vertical alignment position of the image (which is also the default) usually refers to the middle between the x-height and the baseline of the text (on which the vertical middle of the image will be aligned, and on which usually the text may be overstroke), but not to the middle of the line-height of the font-height that refers to the space between the "text-top" and "text-bottom" positions ; the font-height excludes:</translate>
<translate>
<!--T:96-->
#* the additional line separation spacing normally divided equally into two line-margins (here 0.5em, according to line-height set to 200%) above and below the font-height).</translate>
<translate>
<!--T:97-->
#* the additional line spacing which may be added by superscripts and subscripts.</translate>
<translate>
<!--T:98-->
# However, if the image height causes its top or bottom position to go above or below the normal full line-height of text, the middle position will be adjusted after the increasing the top and/or bottom line-margins so that the image can fit and align properly, and all images (including those with smaller heights) will be vertically centered on the adjusted middle position (for computing the effective line-height, the text of each rendered row with the larger font-height will be considered).</translate>
<translate>
<!--T:99-->
# The "text-top" and "text-bottom" alignment positions also excludes the extra line spacing added by superscripts and subscripts, but not the additional line-spacing defined by the line-height.</translate>
<translate>
<!--T:100-->
# The "top" and "bottom" alignment positions take into account all these extra line spacings (including superscripts and subscripts, if they are present in a rendered line span).</translate> <translate><!--T:101--> When the image alignment constrains the image to grow above or below the normal line-spacing, and the image is not absolutely positioned, the image will cause the "top" and "bottom" positions to be adjusted (just like superscripts and subscripts), so the effective line-height between rendered lines of text will be higher.</translate>
<translate>
<!--T:102-->
# The "underline", "overline" and "overstrike" text-decoration positions should be somewhere within these two limits and ''may'' depend on the type and height of fonts used (the superscript and subscript styles may be taken into account in some browsers, but usually these styles are ignored and the position of these decorations may not be adjusted); so these decorations normally don't affect the vertical position of images, relatively to the text.

=== Stopping the text flow === <!--T:103-->
</translate>
<translate><!--T:104--> On occasion it is desirable to stop text (or other inline non-floating images) from flowing around a floating image.</translate>
<translate><!--T:105--> Depending on the web browser's screen resolution and such, text flow on the right side of an image may cause a section header (for instance, <nowiki>== My Header ==</nowiki>) to appear to the right of the image, instead of below it, as a user may expect.</translate>
<translate><!--T:106--> The text flow can be stopped by placing '''<tvar name=code1><syntaxhighlight lang=html inline><br clear=all></syntaxhighlight></tvar>''' (or if you prefer, <tvar name=code2><syntaxhighlight lang=html inline><div style="clear: both"></div></syntaxhighlight></tvar>) before the text that should start below the floating image.</translate>
<translate><!--T:107--> (This may also be done without an empty line by wrapping the section with the floating images with <tvar name=code><syntaxhighlight lang=html inline><div style="overflow: hidden">…</div></syntaxhighlight></tvar>, which clears all floats inside the <code>div</code> element.)</translate>

<translate><!--T:108--> All images rendered as blocks (including non-floating '''center'''ed images, '''left'''- or '''right'''-floating images, as well as '''framed''' or '''thumbnail'''ed floating images) are implicitly breaking the surrounding lines of text (terminating the current block of text before the image, and creating a new paragraph for the text after them).</translate>
<translate><!--T:109--> They will then stack vertically along their left or right alignment margin (or along the center line between these margins for '''center'''ed images).</translate>

<translate>
=== Altering the default link target === <!--T:110-->
</translate>
<translate><!--T:111--> The following table shows how to alter the link target (whose default is the image description page) or how to remove it.</translate>
<translate><!--T:112--> Changing the link does not alter the format described in the previous sections.</translate>

{|class="wikitable plainlinks"
|-
!<translate><!--T:113--> Description</translate>
!<translate><!--T:114--> You type</translate>
!<translate><!--T:115--> You get</translate>
{{ {{TNTN|Help:Images/frame}}|2=link=Main Page|ex=<translate><!--T:116--> internal link</translate>}}

{{ {{TNTN|Help:Images/frame}}|2=link=|ex=<translate><!--T:118--> no link (external or file page)</translate>}}
|}

'''<translate><!--T:119--> Warning</translate>:'''
: <translate><!--T:120--> The licencing requirements on your wiki may not allow you to remove all links to the description page that displays the required authors attributions, the copyrights statements, the applicable licencing terms, or a more complete description of the rendered image (including its history of modifications).</translate>
: <translate><!--T:121--> If you change or remove the target link of an image, you will then have to provide somewhere else on your page an explicit link to this description page, or to display the copyright and author statement and a link to the applicable licence, if they are different from the elements applicable to the embedding page itself.</translate>
: <translate><!--T:122--> Your wiki policy may restrict the use of the alternate link parameter, or may even enforce a prohibition of alternate link parameters for embedded media files (in which case, the link parameter will be ignored), or may only accept them after validation by authorized users or administrators.</translate>

<translate>
== Rendering a gallery of images == <!--T:123-->

=== Gallery syntax === <!--T:124-->
</translate>
<translate><!--T:125--> It's easy to make a gallery of thumbnails with the <tvar name=gallery>{{tag|gallery|open}}</tvar> tag.</translate>
<translate><!--T:126--> The syntax is:</translate>

<syntaxhighlight lang=html>
<gallery>
File:file_name.ext|caption|alt=alt language
File:file_name.ext|caption|alt=alt language
{...}
</gallery>
</syntaxhighlight>

<translate>
<!--T:127-->
Note that the image code is not enclosed in brackets when enclosed in gallery tags. 
</translate>

<translate><!--T:128--> Captions are optional, and may contain wiki links or other formatting.</translate>
{{note|1=<translate><!--T:258--> The words "center", "left", and "right" used as captions cause false-positive Linter errors.</translate> <translate><!--T:270--> See <tvar name=1>{{phab|T275074}}</tvar> for details.</translate>}}
<translate><!--T:129--> Some of the parameters controlling thumb output can also be used here, specifically the ones that modify the file (as opposed to ones that control where in the page the image falls).</translate>
<translate><!--T:130--> For example, with multi-paged media like pdfs, you can use code like <tvar name=code><code>page=4</code></tvar>.</translate>

<translate><!--T:131--> The <tvar name=file><code>File:</code></tvar> prefix can be omitted.</translate>
<translate><!--T:216--> However, it is helpful to include it as an aid for quickly locating image specifiers in the wikitext (for example, when cleaning up page layout).</translate>

<translate>
<!--T:132-->
For example:
</translate>

<syntaxhighlight lang="moin">
<gallery>
File:Example.jpg|Item 1
File:Example.jpg|a link to [[Help:Contents]]
File:Example.jpg
File:Example.jpg|alt=An example image. It has flowers

<!--T:135-->
Starting in 1.22 a <tvar name=1><code>mode</code></tvar> parameter is available, taking options as follows:

<!--T:136-->
* <tvar name=1><code>traditional</code></tvar> is the original gallery type used by MediaWiki.</translate>
<translate>
<!--T:137-->
* <tvar name=1><code>nolines</code></tvar> is similar to <tvar name=2><code>traditional</code></tvar>, but with no border lines.</translate>
<translate>
<!--T:138-->
* <tvar name=1><code>packed</code></tvar> causes images to have the same height but different widths, with little space between the images.</translate> <translate><!--T:139--> The rows in this [[w:Responsive web design|responsive]] mode organize themselves according to the width of the screen.</translate>
<translate>
<!--T:140-->
* <tvar name=1><code>packed-overlay</code></tvar> shows the caption overlaid on the image, in a semi-transparent white box.</translate>
<translate>
<!--T:141-->
* <tvar name=1><code>packed-hover</code></tvar> is similar to <tvar name=2><code>packed-overlay</code></tvar>, but with the caption and box only showing up on hover.</translate>
* <translate><!--T:206--> <tvar name=1><code>slideshow</code></tvar> creates a slideshow of the images.</translate>

'''To wrap images of varying widths with captions''' it is necessary to use div HTML for an unordered list. Along with <code>style="display: inline-block;"</code>. For more info and ideas see: [http://www.sitepoint.com/give-floats-the-flick-in-css-layouts Give Floats the Flick in CSS Layouts].

<translate><!--T:164--> Some wiki farms do not have all gallery options (such as "widths").</translate>
<translate><!--T:165--> Also, sometimes one wants varying widths for images in a row.</translate>
<translate><!--T:166--> Outside of a gallery, or the div HTML, it is impossible to have individual captions for images in a row of images that will wrap to the browser width.</translate>
<translate><!--T:167--> Try it and see. Nothing else using wikitext works correctly. Images will either overlap stuff on the right, or force a horizontal scroll bar.</translate>

<translate><!--T:168--> Using a left float ("left") for some images, combined with "none" for some of the images, will not work consistently either, especially if there is also a right sidebar of images.</translate>
<translate><!--T:169--> Weird things will occur.</translate>
<translate><!--T:170--> At narrower browser or screen widths an image out of the row may appear far down the page after the end of the right sidebar of images.</translate>

<translate>
== Link behavior == <!--T:171-->
</translate>
<translate><!--T:172--> By default an image links to its file description page.</translate>
<translate><!--T:173--> The "link=" option modifies this behavior to link to another page or website, or to turn off the image's linking behavior.</translate>

<translate><!--T:174--> Alternatively, you can create a text link to a file description page or to the file itself.</translate>
<translate><!--T:204--> See <tvar name=1>{{ll|Help:Linking to files}}</tvar>.</translate>

<translate>
=== Display image, link it to another page or website === <!--T:180-->

<!--{{note|1=link '''does not work with''' thumb '''or''' frame.}}
(@note above: link worked fine using thumb and frame)
(reply: thanks for pointing this out, must have been a bug fix)
(Note that MediaWiki v. 1.16 fails to link with 'frame' or 'thumb')
-->

<translate>
<!--T:181-->
Use "link=" option to link image to another page or website:

<!--T:182-->
Clicking on the below image will take you to [[MediaWiki]]:
</translate>

[[File:MediaWiki-2020-logo.svg|50px|link=MediaWiki]]

<translate>
<!--T:183-->
Clicking on the below image will take you to ''example.com'':

[[File:MediaWiki-2020-logo.svg|50px|link=]]

<translate>
=== Link to an image === <!--T:208-->

<!--T:209-->
Add <tvar name=colon><code>:</code></tvar> as a prefix to the link you need to create.
</translate>

=== Directly linking to an image === <!--T:242-->
</translate>
<translate><!--T:243--> The above examples link to the image's description page.</translate>
<translate><!--T:244--> To directly link to an image, the pseudo-namespace <tvar name=1><code>Media:</code></tvar> can be used on MediaWiki pages:</translate>

{{anchor|Direct image access}}
<translate>
====Direct links from external sites==== <!--T:245-->
</translate>
<translate><!--T:246--> Another possibility is to use the <tvar name=1>[[Special:Redirect/file]]</tvar> page (or its alias <tvar name=2>[[Special:Filepath]]</tvar>).</translate>
<translate><!--T:247--> Unlike the above example, you can link to it from external websites as well as from MediaWiki pages.</translate>

<syntaxhighlight lang="moin">

<translate><!--T:248--> The parameters <code>height</code> and <code>width</code> can also be added to return a specific size of the image.</translate>

{{anchor|Obtain a direct link to an image}}

====Obtaining the full URL of an image==== <!--T:249-->

<!--T:250-->
To obtain the full path of an image (without going through redirects as shown above), some <tvar name=1>{{ll|Help:magic words|nsp=0}}</tvar> can be used.
</translate>

<translate><!--T:213--> In the event that this is used from a template where the <code>File:</code> namespace needs to be removed, <tvar name=1><code><nowiki>{{PAGENAME}}</nowiki></code></tvar> can do so:</translate>

 <nowiki>{{filepath:{{PAGENAME:File:MediaWiki-2020-logo.svg}}}}</nowiki>

<translate><!--T:214--> Becomes:</translate>

<translate>
== Requisites == <!--T:186-->
</translate>
<translate><!--T:187--> Before using images in your page, the system administrator of your wiki must have [[<tvar name=uploads>Special:MyLanguage/Manual:Configuring file uploads</tvar>|enabled file uploads]] and a user has to [[<tvar name=managing>Special:MyLanguage/Help:Managing files</tvar>|upload the file]].</translate>
<translate><!--T:188--> System administrators may also set the wiki to accept files from [[<tvar name=image>Special:MyLanguage/Manual:Image Administration#Foreign Repositories</tvar>|foreign repositories]], such as the [<tvar name=url>http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Main_Page</tvar> Wikimedia Commons].</translate>
<translate><!--T:189--> For server side image resizing it is necessary to have a scaler configured (such as GD2, ImageMagick, etc.).</translate>

<translate>
== Files at other websites == <!--T:190--> 
</translate>
<translate><!--T:191--> You can link to an external file available online using the same syntax used for linking to an external web page.</translate>
<translate><!--T:192--> With these syntaxes, the image will not be rendered, but only the text of the link to this image will be displayed.</translate>

<pre>[http://url.for/some/image.png]</pre>

<translate>
<!--T:193-->
Or with a different displayed text:
</translate>

<pre>[http://url.for/some/image.png <translate nowrap><!--T:195--> link text here</translate>]</pre>

<translate>
<!--T:196-->
Additional MediaWiki markup or HTML/CSS formatting (for inline elements) is permitted in this displayed text (except for embedded links that would break the surrounding link):
</translate>

<pre>[http://www.example.com/some/image.png <translate nowrap><!--T:197--> Example '''<del>rich</del>''' ''<ins>link text</ins>'' here.</translate>]</pre>

<translate>
<!--T:215-->
which renders as:</translate> [http://www.example.com/some/image.png <translate><!--T:198--> Example '''<del>rich</del>''' ''<ins>link text</ins>'' here.</translate>]

<translate>
<!--T:199-->
If it is enabled on your wiki (see <tvar name=AllowExternalImages>{{ll|Manual:$wgAllowExternalImages}}</tvar>), you can also embed external images. To do that, simply insert the image's URL:
</translate>
<pre>http://url.for/some/image.png</pre>
<translate>
<!--T:200-->
Embedded images can be resized by the CSS <tvar name=transform><code>transform</code></tvar> property. They also may be formatted by surrounding MediaWiki markup or HTML/CSS code.

<!--T:201-->
If this wiki option is not enabled, the image will not be embedded but rendered as a textual link to the external site, just like above, unless the site's <tvar name=AllowExternalImagesFrom>{{ll|Manual:$wgAllowExternalImagesFrom}}</tvar> has a value.
