Goodies, tips, and tricks Put Babel boxes on your user page so others know what languages you can speak and indicate your graphic abilities. You can find the files you have uploaded in your Uploads. Please sign your name on Talk pages by typing ~~~~. To link to an image page without embedding the image, type: [[:File:Foo.jpg]], which produces: File:Foo.jpg. You may enable gadgets (custom features) for your account. There are several tools to upload files. Have you edited Wikipedia before? This guide might be useful. Made a mistake? Do you want to have a file renamed or moved? Use the move link and wait for an authorized user to rename it. Do you want to have your recently uploaded picture removed? Tag it as {{speedy|reason here}}. For more information read the deletion guidelines.

Help with Supersede

George, I was attempting to supersede: File:Karen Stollznow 1.jpg, since the photo is orphaned, and the subject feels the existing in-use alternate version, containing basically the same content, is better quality: File:Karen Stollznow.jpg.

When I went to do that (I've never done it before), it popped a box up saying a deletion request was denied a couple months back, and I should contact the admin, which I gather is you. How should I proceed here? And thank you for any help.

Hi Rjmail!

File:Karen Stollznow.jpg already exist. Therefore you should be use other filename. For example, Karen Stollznow 2012.jpg or something similar.

Don't overwrite uploads of other users.
