How to port an image (this happens to be in a review, but should work for any article the same way): Image collisionWhat if an image already exists? (I start to port or add an image, and it had a different image). There's sometimes a problem in that the site will default use a local image, but if there is no local image, it'll see if there's one at https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Main_Page If there is, it uses that. (Which is good -- it means I can link to images that are already in commons, without having to make local copies of everything). However, if the workflow is to copy over an article before an image, you now have an image in place, instead of the easier, "no image" error to fix. Here's the work-around (to avoid trying to replace the image in commons, and instead replace/add a local version)
That fixes it. If you refresh the article that contained the image, it should use the new image and not commons one now. |
