For images, the Summary field should be a template invocation specifying the image origin. In most cases that would be one of:

  • {{kolimage}} is used for images coming directly from the game itself. This has fields to specify the directory in which the image is found as well; for example, {{kolimage|itemimages|club.gif}}, {{kolimage|adventureimages|spider1.gif}}, or {{kolimage|otherimages/plains|bat_hole.gif}}.
    • Specify renamed=1 if the image was renamed to avoid an image name conflict. Image name conflicts should be added to the filename issues table.
  • {{modkolimage}} is used for images that have been modified by users for various purposes. This could include splitting up a large image into several pieces, so each piece can be used for a distinct link, or used on other pages.

To include the image in a page, use a link like [[File:file.gif]]. There are other options as well.
