Uploading files to this wiki

Please Note - Restrict your file size to 15kB This will speed up page rendering!

At the moment, only graphics file upload ais enable on this wiki. Currently the file-types that will be accepted by the server are .jpg .png and .ogg . These are stores in the "images' folder on the wiki. Should there be enough demand, it is possible to enable other file types.

Guidelines: When naming your files for upload, please use the following syntax yourusername_filename.extension for example VK4YEH_radio1.jpg

This will streamline uploads and ensure that files with the same name are unlikely to occur.

When linking files on pages use the following syntax image:File.jpg, (enclosed by double square brackets with a space between the left brackets and "image")

For example this code image:Vk4yeh_0_VK4YEH.jpg (enclosed by double square brackets) adds the following image to the text.

 File:Vk4yeh 0 VK4YEH.jpg
