Image Policy

''Before you upload any images on this wiki, please read the policy. This prevent your image to be deleted from this wiki, as well preventing a warning from the administrators.''

General notes

 * Note that results of images breaking these policies depends on which part of the policy and severity of the case.
 * This wiki only uses three sorts of file extensions, JPG, PNG (required due to transparent background), and SVG (required for icons and those directly taken from Wikipedia and Wikia itself). Animated GIF images are disallowed due to their lack of purpose and distractive quality. If a still image is insufficient to illustrate the text it accompanies, then one should consider rewriting the text to better convey the intended message.
 * One or two poor quality images being uploaded may just get tagged, but a large number of images that add more work for the other editors on the wiki may result in the user being blocked if they don't hold up on the uploads.

Uploading

 * It comes with a form which you need to fill in as best as possible and select an appropriate file name and licensing to upload the image.
 * When you upload a new image do not overwrite any existing images.
 * Uploading images over top of other images messes up the image page's history and makes it hard to discern between images with proper tagging, and images without tagging that were uploaded over top of images that had proper tagging resulting in an irrelevant rationale being left on the page.

Duplicate Images

 * Duplicate Images will be deleted regularly from the wiki
 * Before uploading make sure your image does not already exist on the wiki

Image origins

 * Images directly from the light novel, anime and manga or promotional materials, official arts should only be used.
 * While we permit fan images (including fan colorings of manga scans) to be used for user pages, do not upload them with the intention of including them in any actual articles and comment section. We only use official images for them.

Image quality

 * Avoid widescreen shots. Widescreen images sometimes contain black bars, and more importantly the large width of the images disrupts the visibility of thumbnails by increasing the amount of empty space. It's best to clip the image down to what you are actually depicting.
 * Avoid watermarks and subtitles/translations. When clipping from manga it's best to use the raws, and for anime either use the raw, or use a frame where there is no subtitle, or use a group that uses soft subtitles and formats like .mkv. Watermark, subtitles and the edits made by scanalation groups ruin the image, reduces its originality, and also incorporates a fuzzy copyright issue that technically makes those images illegal.
