	Adding to a wiki is easy. Use the following hints to help you create and edit pages. If you ever run into trouble, look at other pages that have already been created to help troubleshoot. In some cases, these directions will only be clear if you enter the editing view of this page. This allows you to see how the code is written, and to copy/paste it for yourself. Please be careful when you enter the editing view so as not to mistakenly delete anything. It is safest to enter the editing view only for the topic that you are interested in. This can be done by clicking [<span style="color: blue">edit</span>] in the upper right corner of the section you are reading.		Adding to a wiki is easy.

		+	== Adding Single Images to Articles ==
		+
		+	===Full Scale Images===
		+	After uploading the image, add a single image at full scale to an article by clicking the 'Embedded file' button on the editing toolbar, and replace 'Example.jpg' with the file name and extension of your uploaded image.
		+
		+	'''Example''':
		+	<pre>[[File:Example.jpg]], replace Example.jpg with the name and extension of your image.</pre>
		+
		+	Produces:
		+
		+	[[File:Example_1.jpg]]
		+
		+	===Thumbnail Images===
		+	To add a thumbnail image to an article, click the 'Embedded file' button on the editing toolbar, replace 'Example.jpg' with your image name and extension, add a vertical line (\| - Shift+backslash) after the extension and type 'thumb' inside the bracket. The default position of the thumbnail is on the right side of the page, you can change the position to either the center or left of the page by adding a vertical line and typing 'left' or 'center'.
		+
		+	'''Example''':
		+	<pre>[[File:Example.jpg\|thumb\|left]]</pre>
		+

		+	===Image Captions===
		+	[[File:Example_1.jpg\|thumb\|Caption]]
		+	To add a caption to an image (either full scale or thumbnail), add a vertical line (\|) and your caption inside the brackets.
		+
		+	'''Example''' (would create a captioned thumbnail image on the right side of the page):

		+	== How to Add a Picture Gallery ==
		+
		+	Below is an example of a gallery, which are generally located underneath the text rather than on the side. There are several ways to make galleries, the easiest may be to enter this page in editing format and copy/paste the code for the gallery below. You can change the gallery title, the number of images per row, the image labels, and the size that the image thumbnails appear.
		+
		+	'''Directions:''' (These will only make sense if you look at the code itself)
		+
		+	1. Type the title of the image immediately after Image:
		+
		+	2. If you want to add a thumbnail title, type a vertical line \| after the image title and add a thumbnail title.
		+
		+	3. The thumbnail titles can be formatted by using the buttons.
		+
		+	4. Change the gallery title, thumbnail sizes, and images per row by editing the information in the top row of the gallery code.
		+
		+	<pre>
		+	<gallery caption="Title of Gallery" widths="180px" heights="120px" perrow="3">
		+	Image:Example_1.jpg\|Example 1
