Hey, I see someone at [[category talk:Active administrators of this wiki#Funny place to be for an image]] is pointing at this section as "consensus" for ... something to do with logos. | |||
Could we summarize whatever consensus we came to on the [[WikiProject:Logos]] page? | |||

::Hey, what do you know? The Media: pseudo namespace totally avoids the image page altogether. That's a handy discovery. I always thought before that it did the same thing as putting a colon before the Image: namespace. Neat! — <span style="font-family: Kristen ITC, Times New Roman;">[[User:Sean Fennel]][[User talk:Sean Fennel|@]]</span> 02:27, 7 November 2006 (EST) | ::Hey, what do you know?

When you ask ''"Is it documented anywhere...?"'', | |||
I suspect you are looking for the | |||
friendly tutorial at | |||
[[Wikipedia: Wikipedia:Picture tutorial]]. | |||
There's also far more detailed documentation at | |||
[[Wikipedia: Wikipedia:Extended image syntax]] | |||
and | |||
[http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Images Mediawiki: Help:Images]. | |||
Those pages document the "image width syntax", which starts with | |||
"<tt><nowiki>[[Image:...</nowiki></tt>" | |||
and -- if necessary -- | |||
ends with something like "<tt><nowiki>...|150px]]</nowiki></tt>" | |||
to set the desired size, | |||
as alluded to by [[User:Sean Fennel]] above. | |||
Should [[WikiProject:Logos]] mention the image width syntax? | |||
I don't understand: | |||
Why would anyone editing a WikiIndex page even consider inserting a hard-link to a raw URL | |||
that begins with | |||
"<tt><nowiki>http://www.wikiindex.com/images/thumb/...</nowiki></tt>". | |||
rather than using the above "image width syntax"? | |||
