#* If editing in source mode, replace <code>FILENAME</code> with the name of the image you uploaded, such as <code>File:512.jpg</code> or <code>File:Red hacksaw.jpg</code>, and replace <code>TOOLDESCRIPTION</code> (both times, identically) with the title of the page you created, such as <code>link=Hacksaw, 12", red</code> and <code><nowiki>[[Hacksaw, 12", red]]</nowiki></code> or <code>link=Hacksaw, 12", red ID:512</code> and <code><nowiki>[[Hacksaw, 12", red ID:512]]</nowiki></code>. Be careful to not delete the pipes (<code>|</code>), and make sure there are no spaces between the second pipe and the beginning of the link code (<code><nowiki>[[</nowiki></code>).
#* If editing in source mode, edit the line with <code>FILENAME</code> after the name of the image you uploaded, such as <code>File:512.jpg</code> or <code>File:Red hacksaw.jpg</code>, and replace the words "TOOLDECRIPTION" with the page you wish to link.  Example: replace <code>link=TOOLDESCRIPTION</code> with <code>link=Hacksaw, 12", red ID:512</code> and <code><nowiki>[[TOOLDESCRIPTION]]</nowiki></code> with <code><nowiki>[[Hacksaw, 12", red ID:512]]</nowiki></code>. Be careful to not delete the pipes (<code>|</code>), and make sure there are no spaces between the second pipe and the beginning of the link code (<code><nowiki>[[</nowiki></code>).  It should look like this: <pre>File:512.jpg|link=Hacksaw, 12", red ID:512 |[[Hacksaw, 12", red ID:512]]</pre>.

# If editing in source mode, click the "Show preview" button at the bottom of the editor to check that your addition appears correctly. (In visual mode, the editor itself serves as the preview.)
