How do I add a picture on a wikipedia page?

In brief, the syntax for displaying an image is: [[Image:{name}|{type}|{location}|{size}|... You should first read the rules that are stated by Wikipedia on placing pictures on the site. Before you upload an image, make sure that either: * You own the rights to the image (usually meaning that you created the image yourself). * You can prove that the copyright holder has licensed the image under an acceptable free license. * You can prove that the image is in the public domain.or * You believe, and state, a fair use rationale for the specific use of the image that you intend. MAKE SURE that you do not violate copyright law!! that is a crime and you can be sued by the owner of the picture. Under United States copyright law, all images published before January 1, 1923 in the United States are now in the public domain, but this does not apply to images that were created prior to 1923 and published in 1923 or later. The year 1923 has special significance and this date will not roll forward before 2019.
