Wow, while there is a lot of useful info buried in this, like most WP things it goes overboard on complexity and forgets to teach noobs.

Does it even tell people how to "upload"?

Hope you don't mind if I try to open it with an "images for dummies" section? humanUser talk:Human 20:27, 29 February 2008 (EST)

No it doesn't tell how to upload but the upload page does, doesn't it? SusanThe Earth Moved 20:48, 29 February 2008 (EST)

I think the first bit's already fairly simple - I have amended it slightly already but go ahead. SusanThe Earth Moved 20:48, 29 February 2008 (EST)

What "upload page"? I don't think it's simpel at all - the first section dives right into a zillion parameters which most people only use after they get proficient. Anyway, I'll reload to see what you changed, and see if I can get the easy stuff covered. humanUser talk:Human 23:13, 29 February 2008 (EST)
Upload page: where you go when you click upload file
I've done a bit - improve as you will. SusanThe Earth Moved 12:09, 1 March 2008 (EST)

There should be a link to this fromthe upload file page. --Warty 08:53, 27 March 2008 (EDT)
Thanks, you're quite correct! I also need to check to see if it explains how to do screen shots... humanUser talk:Human 14:22, 27 March 2008 (EDT)

I think this Page may be in need of an update. It tells you that to upload a file you need to access the 'Toolbox' at the left of the page. As far as I can see, there is no such thing. How do I upload an image?— Unsigned, by: Dilgreen / talk / contribs

Thing is, you don't until you've made one or two edits & become "autoconfirmed". Not that we don't trust you, but we don't know you yet. What image were you wanting to upload, anyway? (oh: Please sign talk page entries using four tildes like this: ~~~~ or by clicking on the sign button: SigButt.png, on the toolbar above the edit panel. Thank you.) Scream!!
