This form is for uploading images and other media; to upload game fixes and patches, see the Files section.

To view or search previously uploaded files, go to the list of uploaded files. (Re)uploads are also logged in the Upload log, with deletions in the Deletion log.

To include a file in a page, use a link in one of the following forms:

  • {{Image|File.jpg|}} to use the file with no file caption.
  • {{Image|File.png|Alt text}} to use the file with "Alt text" as the file caption.

To include multiple images that are part of a collection, use the following format: 

<gallery>
File1.jpg|Caption1
File2.jpg|Caption2
</gallery>

Standard markup for placing files on pages is supported via the [[File:]] tag, but should be avoided where possible. Custom PCGW templates, such as the previously mentioned {{Image}}, should be used instead to ensure consistency across articles.

The current PCGamingWiki guidelines on images can be found in the Editing guide.
