Step 1
Go to Special:Upload

Step 2
Copy the following text as is seen below this line

Step 3
Paste that text in the part of the upload page that says: Summary

Step 4
Add a source, behind the part where it says source= in the text you pasted in the summary, a source is the place where the image comes from, be it a book, comic, screenshot or website. NOTE: If you found your image on a website, pasting the URL behind the part where it says source is enough.

Step 5
Licencing, A licence is very important, they keep our ass out of court, just to be safe write down: in the summary behind the word: licencing=

Step 6
If you did all that the summary will look like this:

Step 7

Step 9
Now your image is good to go and you won't have to fear that we will delete it.

Words of wisdom

 * 1) On the Upload page there are several warnings listed, take them seriously when you are uploading, ignoring them for too long might get you banned.
 * 2) Any questions about this subject can be left on the talk pages of an Administrator.
 * 3) If you ever get a green template of an angry Wookiee with a Blaster who is threatening a pink chick with rape on your talkpage you have failed to follow these simple steps. NOTE: The pink chick is you.
