Line 61 ⟶ 62:
If there's already an image in an article, you'll add the caption at the end of the [[Wikipedia:Extended image syntax|image syntax]]. In this example, the caption would be written in the last area, "Example caption":
{{xt2|<code><nowiki>[[File:Example.png|thumb
Remember that when adding a caption, it should be a [[Wikipedia:Captions|suitable caption]]: keep it clear, succinct, and relevant. For more information, please see [[WP:CAPTION]].

How do I get it undeleted?
:The best first step is to find out who deleted your image and explain why it is ok. When you visit the page of a deleted image, you should see a bright pink box with "A page with this title has previously been deleted." In there it will state who deleted the image, a link to their talk page, and generally why it was deleted. If you visit their talk page you can ask for it to be returned, but you will have to say why. If it is copyrighted but comes under the [[WP:NFCC|non-free content exceptions]] you will need to add an explanation as to why it is needed for the article you want to add it to when the image is undeleted. If the reason was that there was nothing on the image's page to explain why the image was ok, you will need to add a license to the image and possibly contact the [[Wikipedia:Volunteer Response Team|volunteer response team]] (often called OTRS), to let them see evidence that the image was licensed properly.
