Find the file on the wiki
Files that already are on the wiki can be made available or used on various pages. You do not need to upload them again in order to link to them. Instead you can use the file that has been already uploaded.
If you the file is not on the wiki, you'll need to upload it. see: Help:Managing files
Most common way to link
Deeper understanding
Please read Mediawiki's "Linking to files" description which talks about how to link generally on any mediawiki site (including this one).
See also Help:Managing files.
Tools that help
PCSAR's wiki has a couple of additional ways of linking:
- The template:link simplifies links to file description pages.
- The Template:Document format links creates links to related files in different formats and download options.
