-<div id="Uploadtext" style="border: 1px solid grey; background: #ddf; padding: 10px 30px; margin: 0 auto;">Halopedia storage space is not infinite.  Please check to make sure that the image you're about to upload doesn't already exist.  Also, if you want to use a smaller image of an existing image, you <big><span style="color: red; font-weight: bold;">DO NOT</span></big> upload a smaller picture.  Halopedia allows you to resize the image.  For more info check out the [[Help:Images|Help section on Images]].<p></p>
+Use the form below to upload files.
+To view or search previously uploaded files go to the [[Special:FileList|list of uploaded files]], (re)uploads are also logged in the [[Special:Log/upload|upload log]], deletions in the [[Special:Log/delete|deletion log]].
-When you upload a picture be sure to choose a license from the '''Licensing''' dropdown box.  If you can't find a license listed that fits your picture then browse through the [[:Category:Images|Image Categories]].  When you find where your image would fit, add the category in the '''Summary''' box.</div>
+To include a file in a page, use a link in one of the following forms:
+* <strong><code><nowiki>[[</nowiki>{{ns:file}}<nowiki>:File.jpg]]</nowiki></code></strong> to use the full version of the file
+* <strong><code><nowiki>[[</nowiki>{{ns:file}}<nowiki>:File.png|200px|thumb|left|alt text]]</nowiki></code></strong> to use a 200 pixel wide rendition in a box in the left margin with "alt text" as description
+* <strong><code><nowiki>[[</nowiki>{{ns:media}}<nowiki>:File.ogg]]</nowiki></code></strong> for directly linking to the file without displaying the file
+When you upload a file to {{SITENAME}}, we ask that you fill out the file description form as accurately as possible. Please ensure that the image complies with our [[Project:Media policy|media policy]] and that the filename starts with the proper [[Project:Acronyms|acronym]]. For more information, see the [[Help:Images|help page]].
+The upload form will apply most file categories automatically, excluding [[:Category:Images by subject|image subject]] subcategories. These can be added using the category tool below.
