no edit summary
Then, give a suitable summary (see below), insert the correct copyright information (see below) and put in the source for the image (see below). All three of these '''must be filled in''' or else the image will be incomplete in some way, soon leading to problems. Our goal is to have a proper image gallery completely filled out with the destination of all images known, that way we can keep things organised and avoid the wrath of Games Workshop!
All images need an appropriate [[Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum:Categories|category]]. It can be included in the summary section or added after uploading via editing. For a list, see [[:Category:Images|here]].
There are also two buttons, 'Watch this page' and 'Ignore any warnings'. The first adds the image to your watch list which will alert you to any changes made to the image (in much the same way that an article on your watch list). The second is there in case there is a problem with the image for some reason, but you still want to upload it. This will hopefully not happen often! Then, simply click the 'Upload file' button and wait for it to finish.
This is necessary on '''all''' images as it is required by Games Workshop, otherwise the picture is being used illegally and Games Workshop could shut us down for having just one! For simplicity we provide you with the Copyright to include, see below:
*For all images use: <nowiki>{{Copyright}}</nowiki> - this [[Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum:Templates|template]] generates the full [[Template:GWCopyright|text]]. If the file is not from an official publication related to Games Workshop (Forgeworld, Black Library, White Dwarf e.t.c.) then you may '''not''' upload the image for use on the Lexicanum
If the image has been painted and the source is available, put something like: 'Also, Copyright X (painter)'
