Sometimes an image links to a different place than the File page. In these cases you need to look for the File page name in the wiki text.

- Find the wiki markup for the image, it should look something like
[[File:Kde.png|link=Special:myLanguage/An introduction to KDE]]

- Enter http://userbase.kde.org/File_page_name in the web browser's location bar, for example http://userbase.kde.org/File:Kde.png
