To reupload an existing image, for example an infographic based on older data, go to that image file description page and find the link that says "upload a new version of this file", which opens a wizard to upload the new version. Describe only the ''changes'' that you have made to the file, as the general description of the file (including licensing, etc.) will remain from before. The new version will now automatically be accessed by the pages that link to the file, but will keep the old version in the "File History" section of the file description page. | To reupload an existing image, for example an infographic based on older data, go to that image file description page and find the link that says "upload a new version of this file", which opens a wizard to upload the new version.

If you cannot find the link to "upload a new version of this file" it's possible that you are not looking at the original source page of the file. It is common for files to be hosted at the Bharatmedia Commons, even though they have an English Bharatpedia info page in which case you'll have to find the file there (a notice should be provided that the file is hosted on Bharatmedia Commons and will link to the file's "description page there") where you can reupload the file.

After reuploading an image to the same image name you often need to [[ | After reuploading an image to the same image name you often need to [[Bharatpedia:Bypass your cache|bypass]] your browser cache to see the new image. This also fixes the oddity that the new image might show on the image page, but with the old image size. Sometimes after uploading a new version of an image the thumbnails in articles still show the old image even if you have bypassed your browser cache (which is especially ugly if the new image is of a different size). Then you need to purge the image page. See [[Bharatpedia:Purge#For images]] for how to do that. | ||
