C - Inserts a file, usually a picture, to the body of the article.
The <code>Filename:</code> field is mandatory. You will need to upload the file to the wiki first, using the [[Special:Upload]] page. After successfully uploading the file, you can copy the file name, including the File: part, into the <code>Filename:</code> field, click Insert, and the file will be embedded into the page at the place of the cursor. See [[How to upload a file]] guide for more information on uploading files to this wiki.
You can also type the caption for the file, as well as select it's position and dimensions on the page. For more information on how to work with inserting images and other files, refer to the [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Images MediWiki Images Help page]. D - Creates a reference at the position of the cursor. This way you can create a reference for what you are currently writing about, be it a link to a news article or a book. You type the bibliographic reference into the form, click insert, and the reference will be created. It will not display the entire reference in the body of the article, though. A numbered link will be placed at the position where you create the reference. The full text will be automatically placed at the end of the article, together with other references in chronological order based on their position throughout the article. It is advised that you place <cade>== References ==</code> as the second to last thing, just before categories, at the end of the article you are writing.
