Are you writing a new wikiHow article and think it would be improved with step-by-step photos? Many times photos do improve an article! If the question is "how to find them", worry not! Read this article for some ways to generate photos for a wikiHow article.

Steps

  1. Reuse other images from wikiHow. Reusing images from other wikiHow articles is a great way to find high-quality images that match the wikiVisual style of images commonly found in other articles.
  2. Search on wikiHow. Search the unused images to see if there are any appropriate pictures for your article.
  3. Look for images in public domains, such as the Commons. These sites allow republishing of their content, and we already have permission from them. Type certain keywords in the search box, and see if there are any appropriate images for your article based on those keywords. You can upload these images on wikiHow with attribution - such as the uploading person and the image source.
  4. Get explicit written permission for copyrighted images. Majority of the images deemed copyrighted derive from Google searches and other search engine results. To use an image you found online you are required to email the copyright holder requesting written permission. After you obtain the permission, please forward the email to "permissions -at- wikihow.com" before uploading the images. You are also required to attribute each submission, with the owner's name and website.
  5. Take the photos yourself. In some cases it's better to do this, as you know what the article is about and can take pictures that are super relevant! When you upload the photos choose "I made this myself and am willing to share it under wikiHow's Terms of Use" from the licensing drop-down menu.
