== File Pages ==
After uploading an image, a page will be created for it named <code><nowiki>File:FILENAME.EXT</nowiki></code>, where <code>FILENAME.EXT</code> is the filename (and extension) you provided. You can find a searchable list of all uploaded files at [[:Special:ListFiles]] (there's also a link to it on the upload page). The file page is where people will usually land when they click on your imagineimage in an article.
 
Please include an infobox beneath the file description -- generally you'll want to use the {{t|art}} template for this -- and add any relevant categories. Just look for a similar file if you need some guidance on this.
