Uploading files ​

You need to be logged in with a verified email to upload.

What you can upload ​

FormatsPNG, JPEG, GIF, SVG, WebP
Max size50 MB

The engine detects the real format from the file's content (magic bytes), not its extension — so a mislabeled file (say a PNG renamed .svg) is caught and corrected on upload.

Filenames ​

  • Up to 200 characters.
  • Letters, numbers, spaces, and -, _, . — no slashes.
  • Can't begin or end with a dot or a space.
  • Unique ignoring the extension: you can't have both Logo.png and Logo.svg. Re-uploading the same name replaces the existing file.

SVGs that only carry a viewBox (no width/height) are given sensible dimensions automatically, so they don't render at zero size.

Embedding an uploaded image ​

Embed a file with the image syntax — just the filename, no File: prefix:

![[Calpheon_skyline.png|thumb|The Calpheon skyline]]

See Images & files for every option (sizing, thumbnails, alignment, link=, galleries). Each file also has a description page at /file/Name showing its metadata, uploader, license, and which pages use it.
