Hi. I reverted your addition of your "Ichibanian" species name in the Mini G article because we expect purely factual content on this Wiki. In other words we want to be as objective as we can, but I do appreciate your creativity! A word of advice, when linking to other articles within this Wiki, use <nowiki>[[(EXAMPLE)]]</nowiki> as opposed to <nowiki>[http://www.starfywiki.org/EXAMPLE]</nowiki>. One last thing, when unsure about whether an article will come out right or not I would highly recommend using the "Show preview" button first, to save yourself from making too many edits at once. Thanks. --[[User:Torchickens|Torchickens]] 02:20, 15 May 2011 (UTC)
==Answer to your question==
To add images to pages, just add the following wiki syntax somewhere, ''<nowiki>[[File:(Name).(extension)]]</nowiki>''. (I added "nowiki" tags in between here, so that it doesn't actually try to bring up an image).
For example, ''<nowiki>[[File:Moe (Official Artwork).png|50px]]</nowiki>'' brings up this: [[File:Moe (Official Artwork).png|50px]].
[[File:HotchaSprings.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Example]]
There are other ways to display an image, such as <nowiki>[[File:HotchaSprings.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Example]]</nowiki> which would bring up this (see right).
You'll need to check whether we actually have an image for a certain file name. To check this you could browse through existing articles, or [[Special:NewFiles]]. If there is no image available, you can easily upload your own, but be careful that it's not a duplicate. To upload an image, simply click on the [[Special:Upload|upload file]] link on the Toolbox section on the left hand side of the page and select a file to upload from your computer or a source URL.
If you want to experiment with Wiki code feel free to do so on [[:Template:Sandbox]].
Hope that helps. --[[User:Torchickens|Torchickens]] 20:03, 17 May 2011 (UTC)

Hello User:Zaben73, I am The Forgotten Beast, the current editor in chief here. I see you've been doing a lot of great work here and I greatly appreciate it! However I have noticed you've been linking articles as external links (example: <nowiki>[http://www.starfywiki.org/Moe%27s_Sniffer])</nowiki> and that could cause a bit of discomfort, so I ask that you link articles in this format: <nowiki>[[Name of Article]]</nowiki>, its easier and faster than the other method, anyway I hope you keep up the great work and I hope to see more from you in the future! -[[User:The Forgotten Beast|The Forgotten Beast]] 21:42, 17 May 2011 (UTC)

Hi. I reverted your addition of your "Ichibanian" species name in the Mini G article because we expect purely factual content on this Wiki. In other words we want to be as objective as we can, but I do appreciate your creativity! A word of advice, when linking to other articles within this Wiki, use [[(EXAMPLE)]] as opposed to [http://www.starfywiki.org/EXAMPLE]. One last thing, when unsure about whether an article will come out right or not I would highly recommend using the "Show preview" button first, to save yourself from making too many edits at once.

Answer to your question

To add images to pages, just add the following wiki syntax somewhere, [[File:(Name).(extension)]]. (I added "nowiki" tags in between here, so that it doesn't actually try to bring up an image).

For example, [[File:Moe (Official Artwork).png|50px]] brings up this: .

Example

There are other ways to display an image, such as [[File:HotchaSprings.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Example]] which would bring up this (see right).

You'll need to check whether we actually have an image for a certain file name. To check this you could browse through existing articles, or Special:NewFiles. If there is no image available, you can easily upload your own, but be careful that it's not a duplicate. To upload an image, simply click on the upload file link on the Toolbox section on the left hand side of the page and select a file to upload from your computer or a source URL.
