Help:Image control

Image control is a set of user rights that allow a user to move, rename, and delete images. A list of current imagecontrol members can be found here.

Notes on renaming files

 * Image Control members have the option to enable gadgets to facilitate the renaming, updating, and deleting of images in Special:Preferences.
 * Be sure to uncheck the "Leave a redirect" checkbox when renaming an image, since files don't need redirects.
 * Be sure to leave the namespace dropdown set to "File"; files have to remain in the file namespace.
 * When an image is renamed, pages linking to it are not automatically updated; each of them has to be manually updated, unless the image queue renaming gadget is enabled by the user. When updating image links, please check all appropriate namespaces, not just the main namespace.
 * Please do not use  (double  ) in file names; use   instead, even if the original image name calls for double   instead of   (using the former will cause the image to not display).
 * Before renaming an image, please check if there are any similar images. If yes, please consider renaming the higher quality version (if it is misnamed) and delete or add Delete to the lower quality file(s).
 * Look at Category:Files that need to be renamed occasionally to make sure that no specific images are requested to be renamed, and remember to remove the template after renaming the image.
