Steve Ewen and others should populate this with policy regarding our gallery pages. See Biology/Gallery and French fries/Gallery for a few good examples.

About Galleries

Galleries provide pictorial representations of article topics. They can serve as only a supplement to the article text or can be more stand alone. A "history in pictures" of the U.S. Civil War, for example, is entirely possible, just as is a more straightforward gallery, such as one that might only show and name different species of butterflies.

Heading and format standards

{{Mixed gallery}} is an easy to use and exceptionally screen and browser-friendly gallery template.


Guidelines for editing

Galleries may be boldly edited by anyone. This includes both the images that appear and their captions. This applies to galleries adjunctive to both approved and not approved articles (yes, this means you may edit approved galleries). When editing well-developed galleries adjunctive to approved articles, however, it is wise to first discuss your changes, if significant, on the gallery's talk page.
