This image can have issues with moiré when put through Wikipedia's thumbnailer. The following pseudo-hack gets around this:
<imagemap>
Image:Rajpoots_small.jpg|thumb|right|250px|Caption
rect 0 0 1000 751 [[Image:Rajpoots_2.png]]
desc bottom-left
</imagemap>

Adjust "250px" and "Caption" as desired. What this basically does is use the optimised-for-Wikipedia-thumbnailing image Image:Rajpoots_small.jpg instead of the full-sized version. The optimised version has manipulation which actually makes it rather bad in its own right, but it avoids moiré and other issues caused by Wikipedia's poor handling of thumbnails. This pseudo-hack uses the optimised version, but directs people to here, giving them the best possible version for both uses.
