Wikipedia accepts JPEG, PNG and SVG formats, with SVG being preferred for logos and graphics.
What's the difference between Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons?
Wikipedia is the encyclopedia itself, while Wikimedia Commons is the Wikimedia community's free media library.
How do I properly disclose my conflict of interest?
You must disclose your COI in at least one place, but the safest approach is all three: on your User page, on the Talk page of articles you're connected to, and in edit summaries.
What is a Talk page and how do I use it?
A Talk page is the public discussion forum attached to each Wikipedia article, where editors collaborate, raise concerns, and work through disagreements.
