Help this semester

Zack, I'm happy to help out however I can. If you have any questions, just ask and I'll try to get back to you as quick as I can. Let me know when you start to get a better idea of what Wikipedia articles or more specific topic areas you think you'll work on.

Hey! I see you've been playing around with the markup for adding images a bit. The example code you started from can be a bit confusing, but here's out it works: the last parameter of the image code (the bit between the last pipe and the two closing square brackets) is the caption that will get displayed. The part that said "alt=Description of image" is for alt text, the text that would display instead of the image if someone's browser was set to display alt text instead of images (e.g., a blind person using a screen reader). It's optional, but if you want to use alt text, you do so by leaving the "alt=" part and replace the "Description of image" part with a literal description of the image meant for someone who can't see it. (Just in case you were wondering by the "Picture of the year in Alaska. Very neat I must say" you added wasn't showing up anywhere. And yes, it's a very neat picture!)--Sage Ross - Online Facilitator, Wikimedia Foundation (talk) 15:25, 15 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
