=== How to upload and display images | *Intro: | ||
**The purpose of this step-by-step tutorial is use the most realliable method to upload images and diplay them in wiki in the most simple and fast way without the need to remember any wiki trick code or anything, the point is to have a solid procedure to remember and use always | |||
The purpose of this step-by-step tutorial is | **The upload of images is simple, and the display depends of what you want to do with the image, are explained below | ||
*Step 1 | |||
**'''Prepare the images in your PC''' | |||
*Step 1 '''Prepare the images in your PC''' | |||
**Usually you need to upload several images to wiki custom made or found in internet, this explains the worst scenenario with multiple images and randon manes. Make a folder in your PC with any name is just temporal and in most cases is deleted at the end with all the images. Download the images in it and rename them conveniently. Is important to rename them at this point to simplify further steps | **Usually you need to upload several images to wiki custom made or found in internet, this explains the worst scenenario with multiple images and randon manes.

**The naming convention needs to be something most simple posible but also very explicit and keeping in mind that other images for the same "stuff" could be added later, as example for a hardware part dont name the image simply as this part, add to it a tail like "bottom view" "top view" etc... this way if someone in the future wants to upload another image for the same component they can name it starting with the component name and another tail like "perspective view", "detailed view", etc... | **The naming convention needs to be something most simple posible but also very explicit and keeping in mind that other images for the same "stuff" could be added later, as example for a hardware part dont name the image simply as this part, add to it a tail like "bottom view" "top view" etc... this way if someone in the future wants to upload another image for the same component they can name it starting with the component name and another tail like "perspective view", "detailed view", etc... | ||

**Warning !!! For some hardware components where is needed a detailed view (to identify traces, etc...) is better to dont make any edition to the image that could reduce the quality (so scale, rotation, or image format conversion are not a good idea to use if what you want to achieve is good quality, all them applyes an image filter) | **Warning !!!

**Copypasting is the secret golden rule of wiki gurus, here what we need is to keep the wiki standards used to categorize images, long explain short... we use some categories to index the images but is a pita to remember them and how the tags needs to be added to the bottom of the pages so the easy solution (brainless, no need to memorize anything) is to copypaste them from another similar image, basically in wiki we use 2 categories for images that are "hardware" and "software" (and other for templates... different story though but the trick is the same, copypaste ftw) | **Copypasting is the secret golden rule of wiki gurus, here what we need is to keep the wiki standards used to categorize images, long explain short... we use some categories to index the images but is a pita to remember them and how the tags needs to be added to the bottom of the pages so the easy solution (brainless, no need to memorize anything) is to copypaste them from another similar image, basically in wiki we use 2 categories for images that are "hardware" and "software" (and other for templates... different story though but the trick is the same, copypaste ftw) | ||
**Personally what i do is to go to the main page, and take a look at the pages that appears in the main templates, you need to find one similar to the image you want to upload (and when clicking in it you need to be lucky for that page to use some image.... if not image is used then no luck and you need to try to find other) | **Personally what i do is to go to the main page, and take a look at the pages that appears in the main templates, you need to find one similar to the image you want to upload (and when clicking in it you need to be lucky for that page to use some image.... if not image is used then no luck and you need to try to find other) | ||

**'''Upload the image, paste the footer and modify the description''' | |||
**In the "Upload file" page, the first thing you need to do is to paste the footer you copyed before (the point is to paste it as faster as posible to dont lose it, probably you are copypasting other texts in your pc, or links to pages so is easy to lose it). Dont edit the description yet, by now is ok, following the example i used before what i need to paste is <nowiki>[[Category:Hardware]]PS3 - Motherboard - Multilayering</nowiki> | **In the "Upload file" page, the first thing you need to do is to paste the footer you copyed before (the point is to paste it as faster as posible to dont lose it, probably you are copypasting other texts in your pc, or links to pages so is easy to lose it).

**Repeat with the other images, remember, every time you want to upload a new image you need to copy the footer from another uploaded image to paste in the new one, this can be very confusing if done multiple times, it can be made fast but always keep an eye at the "summary" description it needs to match with the original name you used, also remove spaces and file extensions | **Repeat with the other images, remember, every time you want to upload a new image you need to copy the footer from another uploaded image to paste in the new one, this can be very confusing if done multiple times, it can be made fast but always keep an eye at the "summary" description it needs to match with the original name you used, also remove spaces and file extensions | ||
*Step 4 | |||
**'''Choose a way to display the image''' | |||
*In wiki most of the times (most used as far i remember though im sure there are more) the images are displayed using 3 ways, as a "gallery" of images (used when is needed to display several images together), inside a <nowiki><div></nowiki> frame (used to display a single or couple of images in a bigger size displaced to right to serve as introduction to a page section or whole page), inside a table (for eyecandy, or to use the table contour as a frame limiter), or inside a template (to create wiki icons of small size) | **In wiki most of the times (most used as far i remember though im sure there are more) the images are displayed using 3 ways, as a "gallery" of images (used when is needed to display several images together), inside a <nowiki><div></nowiki> frame (used to display a single or couple of images in a bigger size displaced to right to serve as introduction to a page section or whole page), inside a table (for eyecandy, or to use the table contour as a frame limiter), or inside a template (to create wiki icons of small size) | ||
*For the example im using, im uploading two photos using the <nowiki><gallery></nowiki> display mode, there are really a lot of pages in wiki using it, but im going to copy it from [[COK-00x|COK-001]] page (first hit in main page in one of the motherboard models) | **For the example im using, im uploading two photos using the <nowiki><gallery></nowiki> display mode, there are really a lot of pages in wiki using it, but im going to copy it from [[COK-00x|COK-001]] page (first hit in main page in one of the motherboard models) | ||

*** Ok. Normally this isn't possible what you had done with your rights but this is probably because of the Database error on both PS3 and PS4 wiki, so we will keep this status. | *** Ok.
