How to upload files

From Chester Wiki

Although it's possible to upload other kinds of files, most people use this feature to upload images. See our image policy for how, when, and why to upload images to Chester Wiki.

On the appropriate upload page:

1. Enter the folder and name of the file on your computer, in the box marked Source filename. Most web browsers will give you a button marked Browse, to let you pick out a file on your hard drive without having to type the full "path" by hand.
2. In the box for the Destination filename, type a name (no spaces please) that's descriptive (e.g. Paris_Eiffel_Tower.jpg or Quito_Ecuador_market.jpg). Do not leave the filename your camera gave it (e.g. IMG01005.JPG), because no one will know what the photo is.
3. In the Summary box, put basic info about what the file is, where the file came from, and what permissions are attached. It's very helpful if you can put the copyright information in the Summary. If you are the author of the file (e.g. if you took the photograph), you should note that. Specify the license you're offering the image under. We can accept Public Domain (i.e. anyone can use it, any way they want, for anything, no matter what), or Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 1.0 – "CC-BY-SA" for short – (i.e. anyone can use it as long as they give you credit and let others use it too).

If all of this is OK, press the Upload file button. As long as the file isn't too large, and there isn't a name conflict, it should go ahead and transfer from your computer to the server, and the file will be immediately ready for you (and anyone else) to use!
