Help:Adding images

From Wikisource

To add images to Wikisource, go to the Wikimedia Commons and follow the instructions there to upload images. Once images are uploaded to Commons, they are immediately available for use on Wikisource. Do not upload images directly to Wikisource; doing so is almost always against the image guidelines.

  1. Navigate to the page on Wikisource where you would like to add the image, and then click "edit".
  2. Type [[Image:Image Name Here.jpg|250px]] to add the image by itself, or type [[Image:Image Name Here.jpg|thumb|right|250px|Insert caption here.]] to add a frame and a caption.
  3. Save the change, and ensure that the image does not hinder the reading of the text in any way.
