Thanks a lot for your input. It's always great to hear from people who cooperate and want to make this Wiki great.

I've always wanted the images uploaded on this wiki to be limited to only  official artwork, as well as  manga pages and anime screenshots ONLY IF they are relevant and complement the articles. Unfortunately, regulating the images has always been the biggest chore with this Wiki, especially with people uploading completely random screenshots of characters doing unimportant stuff like walking around, pictures with nudity, and fanarts.

Several users have a habit of uploading completely random screenshots from the anime that don't really display anything important or serve any informative purpose. And they upload them in dozens, so deleting them all one at a time is so repetitive.

Unfortunately, this wiki can't differentiate between random users (wikia contributors) and registered users (people with usernames). It can only differentiate between regular users and authorized users like admins. So the image gallery will likely remain open for any user to upload useless images.

I know we have a rule to not upload fanart, but the main reason for this is because, not only do the artworks sometimes require permission to use from the artist, but also because I believe it's courteous and obligatory to credit the artist for the artwork. Finding the original artist can be difficult and so, more likely, people would simply collect and upload whatever fanart they like and not bother giving the artist the proper credit.

But I think it's a great ide to use fanart only in the users' own pages.

Do you think it would help if we make a page for user rules and policies?
