A good [[MOS:caption|caption]] explains the image so that readers understand what they're looking at. Captions can contain [[MOS:LINK|wikilinks]] and formatting, just like the main text of a page.

[[WP:ALT|Alternative text]] is used to describe the contents of an image for users who have visual impairments, and use a text reader for web pages.

The "Advanced settings" window contains various additional parameters. These include the [[Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Images#Horizontal_placement|alignment]], the display type, and [[Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Images#Size|size]] of the image. It is usually best to leave the defaults as is, but sometimes a larger image may be more useful.
