(Another?) Image Issue + Redlink Issue

I'm having an issue with images on the Wiki, but not just re-uploading updated images. When I upload an entirely new image, the redlink persists where the image should be displayed. When I click the redlink, it brings me to the "upload new image" page. However, in this case, I have already uploaded the image. This happened last night when I was trying create the page for Glow-Eyes (though the images appear to be working now), and it is happening again with another page I have recently created for Personal Colors.

Is this simply a new precaution to avoid misuse, or something I should be aware of for future uploads?

Also, my update to include Glow-Eyes on the Accessory page has not yet appeared (beneath Glasses), even though it appears if you compare the latest revision... there seem to be a few glithes on that page in regards to my update.

Thank you for any information.

I believe it's because the wiki is rather slow at updating

What's weird is...

Hmm. What's weird is, when I log on to my Web Account to edit the Wiki, the pages seem to be updated (for the most part). However, when I am not logged in to my Web Account, the pages are not updated.

Perhaps everything will synchronize correctly within a day or so.

Try Ctrl+F5?

The pages should appear identical when logged in or out. Could be that your browser has the old version cached. Try hitting Ctrl+F5 (Force refresh) and see if it updates. Aside from that, wiki pics do take quite a while to update... Took almost a week for an updated BTB pic of mine to appear :/ Also, the newer version looked the same as the old one for some reason, until it updated of course.

I've tried that.

I've tried that, and virtually every other possible solution, multiple times. It wasn't just images, but also links in general. I noticed this happening with my Userspace, so perhaps it's an issue with Userspace only... Regardless, everything is updated now. At the very worst, it takes a day or two to fully synchronize. :)

This is covered in the wiki

This is covered in the wiki issues thread. It's basically the second item in the first post. Just do a "null edit" of the page AFTER you have uploaded the images for it. http://forums.spiralknights.com/en/node/8907
