The following '''image policy''' aims to provide a set of standards and guidelines regarding the ''style and formatting'' of articles on this wiki. For guidelines regarding the ''structure'' of articles, refer to the [[Emmy The Robot
== General ==
*'''Explicit, graphic, or fetish images or depictions of sex or violence must not be uploaded to this wiki at all.'''
*Illustrative images not related to the source material or fandom creations may be used ''sparingly''.▼
*Webtoons or Instagram art/comics '''must''' be used in place of Patreon content, unless the art/comic is unique to Patreon. Patreon art is to be used ''sparingly''.
*Use of unofficial images on [[:Category:Canon|canon]] pages is not allowed.
===File formats===
*[[Wikipedia:Portable Network Graphics|PNG]] format is generally ''preferred'' for most types of images.
*[[Wikipedia:JPEG|JPEG]] ''can'' be used, but it is preferable to use it ''only if'' the file's native format was JPEG and minimal editing has been done, or if it is required to compress a file to fit the Fandom server limitations (see the [[Emmy The Robot
▲*Illustrative images not related to the source material or fandom creations may be used sparingly.
===File descriptions===
*'''Always''' tag your file with the appropriate [[:Category:
*'''Always''' specify where the file came from, such as a website URL or the name of the source from which the image is scanned or captured.
*Do '''not''' upload content with falsified sources or copyright tags.
Line 28 ⟶ 30:
*Images for use in articles ''should'' be of the highest quality publicly available.
*Patreon comics can be used ONLY IF no other free option is available.
*
==Edited images==
Line 34 ⟶ 36:
===Cropping===
*Images taken from private (Patreon) posts '''must''' be cropped.
*If an image has unsightly letterbox frames or other segments that distract from the primary image, it '''must''' be cropped to remove these segments.
*Ideally, speech bubbles ''should'' be completely cropped out of an image. If it is not possible to crop them out, the text in the bubbles should be left in if the bubble is intact. If any part of the text in the bubble is cut off, the remaining text '''must''' be removed.
Line 40 ⟶ 43:
==Usage==
*Images '''must''' be used in a page within a reasonable time from when they are uploaded. Unused images are deleted weekly, if not sooner.
*For free image hosting, try [[Wikipedia:Imgur|Imgur]] or a similar provider. Abuse of the upload function for personal use may result in a temporary or permanent block per our [[Emmy The Robot Fandom Wiki:Blocking policy|blocking policy]].
