Images that should be in SVG format
Images in this category use {{Should be SVG}}. However, it is preferable to use the more specific {{Should be SVG|parameter}}, where parameter is one of the accepted values listed on Template:Should be SVG. Doing so will automatically place the tagged image into the appropriate sub-category and allow for more focused conversion efforts.

| 2 | Upload new version
Click on the "Upload a new version of this file" link located on the file history section of the original image. Browse the new svg image to be selected as the source filename. Then, select the appropriate license (the license of the original file). If the file is in the public domain, you may select the license of your own, since you created the svg. Upload. |
| 3 | Update the original image
Go back to the original file and edit the page. Replace the svg template with {{vector version available|New file.svg}} and save the page. Then replace all the old versions with the new version within the articles the image is found in. The articles are located in the file links section. |
