[edit] Two Quick Questions
1. I was wondering how I go about uploading images and then inserting them into articles. For example, I wrote the TerraMax (vehicle) article a short time ago, but I have no idea how to put in a picture of the vehicle. Any and all help will be appreciated. Thanks.
2. How do I create a template? All I need is for someone to point me in the direction of a tutorial. Thanks.

- 1. You can upload images here. See Wikipedia:Picture tutorial for a guide to uploading pictures. I'm not really familiar with the process, so I can only link you to other people's descriptions.
- 2. Help:Template should lead you in the right direction. —Keakealani 05:19, 24 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] License tagging for Image:Terramax-DARPAChallenge04.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Terramax-DARPAChallenge04.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.
For more information on using images, see the following pages:
This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 03:06, 26 December 2006 (UTC)
