Tokyo Revengers Wiki:Image Policy

This is the Tokyo Revengers Wiki's Image Policy. It describes the acceptable guidelines for the uploading and usage of images on the wiki.

Note: These Policies are strongly based on the One Piece Image Guildines page.

Image Usage
Images are used on this wikia to illustrate articles and depict what often is hard to describe in words. To keep the wikia healthy, avoid questions of "misuse" of the wikia and to generally avoid sensitive image arguments we have certain guidelines and rules that should be note.

Unacceptable images can be considered vandalism, just as text can be considered if it is spam, offensive, or intentionally written wrong information.

Keep in mind that unsuitable or unused images can be deleted at any point without warning by an administrator.

Acceptable Images

 * Single panels or pages from the manga
 * In the case of the manga, images should be uploaded with no text in speech bubbles for character pages.
 * In the case of the anime, images should not have subtitles, watermarks, or editor credits.
 * Only .gif or .png file extensions. This is the standard requirement for the wiki system and many file extension types (such as .BMP) are not uploadable.

Gif Animations

 * GIF format should only be used in the case of an animated image from the anime. Static images, such as a panel from the manga or a screenshot from the anime should be uploaded in PNG format.
 * GIF format should only be used for a scene you can describe in words properly or an action scene (ex. Abilit, fights, actions).
 * GIF format images should not take up most of an article page.
 * We recommend a maximum limit of three GIF format images per article, in order to avoid frequent slowdowns.

Unacceptable Images

 * Collages
 * Fanart of any form, for any reason
 * Images with any kind of English scanlated text
 * Images unrelated to Tokyo Revengers
 * Files in any other format other than .png or .gif
 * Images with watermarks
 * Images for your profile should not be uploaded to the wiki. Please upload them to another image sharing site and import them here.
 * Porn, nudity and any other kind of image that shows explicit scenes, even if it's from an official source, according to Wikia's Terms of Use.

Image Info
When you upload an image on this wiki, please provide the necessary information on the file's page, such as:
 * Licensing: please provide the right license for each image. See the next section for more information.
 * Categorization: after you upload a file, add the appropriate categories by the button at the bottom. If you're not sure which category is appropriate for an image, search for similar ones. Use the Image category section for further guidance if necessary.

Licensing
Almost every image on this wiki is copyrighted and used under fair use. The majority of image copyrights are held by the authors, Kodansha, Kodansha USA, or Liden Films. If the image comes from the manga, anime, a cover or any other merchandises, then add the template Fairuse in the "Licensing" section.

Image Format Policies
The PNG format is strongly preferred over other formats here. JPGs or JPEGs are not allowed anymore on the wiki. Updates to Wikia servers have caused .jpgs to become pixilated when viewed as thumbnails in articles, even when the full size image is high quality. PNGs will not compress or become pixelated when viewed at any size, and are always of higher quality.

Image Naming Policies

 * The image name must describe what is going in the image.
 * If the image depicts a specific character alone (ex. a profile picture, a full body picture) specify it and whether it is a present or past picture on the file name. (Ex: Osamu Dazai Anime Design, Osamu Dazai (Fifteen)
 * If the image does not depict a single character, but instead a scene with two or more characters, use the names of the characters depicted in which they are more known for. Example: Mikey for Manjiro Sano and Draken for Ken Ryuugji and so forth.
 * No random string of letters, words, or numbers.
 * Always put spaces between words.

Image Tagging

 * Any user is welcome to add the "Image with text", "Poor filename", and "Poor quality" tags to images to get an administrator's attention on an image that violates the policies outlined above.
 * All images in this wiki should be categorized. Please see this image category for reference.
 * If an image consists of two or more characters, the image should belong to each image galleries and each image category of characters.

Image Galleries
This is a guide on how to arrange the image galleries. The best example for this is the Takemichi Hanagaki/Image Gallery
 * The images should be of high resolution, if what you uploaded is low resolution, you can tag it as "Poor quality" to notify the admins.
 * The images used in the plot section whether manga or anime should have a caption. Put the image on its necessary subheading.

Images on Profile
This is for the purpose of housekeeping and being able to categorize all images in the wiki in their respective categories.
 * We do not allow fanart images on user's profile.
 * If you wish to have an image, only use what's on the wiki.

Image Advising
Image Replacing
 * Any image on a page can be replaced by uploading a new image with the same name. Editors do not need permission or explanation to replace an image on a place. However, what you consider a better image may not be considered a better image by other editors. Please also take note that replacing an image from the manga with its counterpart is acceptable, however, you should not replace a manga image with another manga image of lower quality. Likewise, do not replace an anime image with another anime image of lower quality. If a protected image is in need of replacement, ask if it should be replaced on the talk page.

Image Wars
 * This is when editors are constantly changing images on a page from one version to another. In the event of constant reverting between two revisions of the same image, the most useful or related image to its intended use will be chosen, or in the event of neither image being of satisfaction, both images may be rejected for another image. If you feel the other editors are making a bad choice, there is a choice to argue the point of the image, backing it up with support from the guidelines listed on this page. If the issue gets out of hand, one of the administrators will protect the page.

Duplicate Images
 * This is when the same image is uploaded twice or more to a wiki with a different name. All versions of this image except for the first will be deleted.

Image Placing
 * Images should be organized into their respective places. For the respective image galleries, you may go to the Image Galleries category.

Manga Image Policy
All manga images uploaded by users should be from the RAW Japanese scans as much as possible. Images from fan scanlated sites are unacceptable. The Japanese versions are among the best quality and directly from the source.

Vandalism
These are some things considered as image vandalism:
 * Uploading Fan-art or anything not related to Tokyo Revengers
 * Uploading .jpg images.
 * Uploading images with English scanlated text
 * Image Warring (Constantly changing the image of a page.)
 * Duplicate images
 * Collages or pictures together
 * Porn or Hentai images
 * Fake or spoiler images
 * Uploading images and not using them.
