See the 2003 version of Floppy disk for an example. Markup for images is quite complicated. This may be improved in the future: see meta:image pages. Here are some examples of typical markup ("image" for an image in the page, "media" for just a link):
A gallery displays several pictures in an array or similar layout. Galleries can display images formed into rows and columns by use of the <gallery>...</gallery> parser (conversion of Wikitext to HTML) tag. Be aware that different screen size and browsers may affect accessibility for some readers.
image is the name of the image, abc.jpg, xpz.png, 123.gif, etc. Do not include the File: or Image: prefix, do not enclose the name in [[brackets]], but do remember to include the filename extension. image_upright should normally be left blank, so that the size defaults to the size set in a user's preferences.
The image file name if there is no explicitly requested Alt or Caption. This is never a satisfactory option. It is possible to specify the link title text only for images with no visible caption (as described above). However, as not all browsers display this text, and it is ignored by screen readers, there is little point.
In this example, the image data is encoded with utf8 and hence the image data can broken into multiple lines for easy reading. Single quote has to be used in the SVG data as double quote is used for encapsulating the image source. A favicon can also be made with utf8 encoding and SVG data which has to appear in the 'head' section of the HTML:
