Use the form below to upload files. To view or search previously uploaded files go to the list of uploaded files. Uploads and reuploads are also logged in the upload log. Deletions are logged in the deletion log.

To include a file in a page, use a link in one of the following forms:

• [[File:File.jpg]] to use the full version of the file
• [[File:File.png|200px|thumb|left|Caption]] to use a 200-pixel-wide rendition in a box in the left margin with the text "Caption" below
• [[Media:File.ogg]] for directly linking to the file without displaying the file

All uploads must comply with Datacron Database's image use policy.

Welcome to the Datacron Database's file upload page! To upload files, you must have:

Please make sure that your upload complies with the Datacron Database's image policy. If your file upload does not include the correct description, source, and license, the file will be deleted.

The Datacron Database recommends enabling JavaScript and using the guided upload tool. Otherwise, add the following code to the "Summary" box and fill it out as completely and accurately as possible:

{{Information
|attention=
|description=
|source=
|artist=
|filespecs=
|licensing=
|other versions=
|cat artist=
|cat licensee=
|cat subject=
|cat type=
}}

The following are instructions for how to completely and accurately fill out the correct information in the "File description" section of this page:

• The "attention" field will generally not be used on a new upload.
• The "description" field is required. Please provide an accurate description of the file's contents.
• The "source" field is required. Please list the specific source that the item comes from. Page numbers are optional but encouraged (when applicable). If the source is a website, the specific URL is mandatory. Google is not a valid source.
• "Artist" is an optional field for the item's cover artist(s).
• "Filespecs" should be used to list specific information about any editing or processing the file has undergone, such as cropping. This is critical for any image which has been modified from the original source. Do not list basic information like file size or dimensions, as the system will display these automatically.
• "Licensing" is a required field that is used to indicate the copyright status/license of the image. "Fair use" is generally applicable to copyrighted images. A list of licenses can be found in the "Licensing" drop-down menu.
• "Other versions" can be used to indicate when alternate but non-duplicate versions or formats of a file are available.
• The "cat" fields are for image categories. If you're not sure how categories work, don't hesitate to ask the community.

Please also make sure that your file upload follows our user image policy. Please remember to follow the above instructions or else your file will be deleted. Thanks!
