Help:Images and multimedia

You can insert an image or embed a video or sound player in the article. You can either insert a file from Wikimedia Commons, a Wikimedia project, or upload a new file locally to WikiLectures. Images on WikiLectures If you want to add an image to your article, you have two options:
 * use an image from Wikimedia Commons (images from all Wikipedia languages); possibly an image with a free license e.g. from the medical portal smart.servier.com, services such as Flickr or Pixabay
 * upload to WiiLectures a custom image to which you own the copyright;

An Image from Commons Lots of nice pictures can be found in Wikimedia Commons. These are most of the images that appear on all language versions of Wikipedia. If you want to embed an image from this repository into a WikiScript, you don't have to copy and upload the image here. Just click on or insert.

Image editing

Upload your own image

Uploading a single image

 * Click on Load File in the left Tools submenu.
 * Click Load file and select the image.
 * Fill in Target name (Structure of heme.jpg rather than IMG_2456.jpg), Description, Source, Author, Date and Category.
 * Select the appropriate licence. Preferred is Creative Commons Attribution 3.0.
 * Click on Load file.

To insert an image into an article as you would for Commons images, click or insert.

Be careful with copyright. It is better to use your own images. In case of using other image than yours – don’t forget to fill all the gaps and select appropriate license. See also author law page.

To load a new version of an existing image, click the Load new version of file link on the image page. Click Load File to select the new version and enter a description of the change from the previous version in the Description field.

Upload to Wikimedia Commons
You can also upload your image to Wikimedia Commons. This will allow it to be used in other projects such as Wikipedia. To upload to Commons, click on Upload to Commons in the left Tools menu and follow the wizard.
