* Also -- toys. Do we even vaguely have an organized structure for toys and merchandise at all? [[User:Huajun Chen|Huajun Chen]] ([[User talk:Huajun Chen|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Huajun Chen|contribs]]) 02:22, September 8, 2011 (UTC)

* Also, I think Booster Packs already have a standardized template that is more or less followed but is it put out in the open for the mass public to read and follow? The Image Policy page only mildly alludes to it, to be honest.

: Currently; just sensible names are encouraged. I agree that there should be an image policy for more than just cards/monsters, booster packs and episode screenshots/manga scans. <span style="font-family: Monotype Corsiva">-[[User:Falzar FZ|Falzar FZ]]- ([[User talk:Falzar FZ#top|talk page]]|[[User:Falzar FZ/Tips and Guides|useful stuff]])</span> 02:27, September 8, 2011 (UTC)
 
:: ... wait what. We have an image policy for episode screenshots? WHEN DID THIS HAPPEN? [[User:Huajun Chen|Huajun Chen]] ([[User talk:Huajun Chen|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Huajun Chen|contribs]]) 02:35, September 8, 2011 (UTC)
 
 
::: It's not exactly written anywhere (I don't think), so it's not enforced much (if any).
 
::: [http://yugioh.wikia.com/index.php?limit=500&tagfilter=&title=Special%3AContributions&contribs=user&target=Deltaneos&namespace=6&year=&month=-1 Here's a good list]; and specific examples would be [[:File:5Dx154 Team 5D's panorama.jpg]] and [[:File:GXx013 Doctor.jpg]]. <span style="font-family: Monotype Corsiva">-[[User:Falzar FZ|Falzar FZ]]- ([[User talk:Falzar FZ#top|talk page]]|[[User:Falzar FZ/Tips and Guides|useful stuff]])</span> 02:41, September 8, 2011 (UTC)
 
 
::::How the hell did I miss that? First I've heard of it and I've uploaded plenty of anime screenshots in the past. That said, I don't think it's really needed. As long as the file name describes what's in the picture, it's fine. if we had a strict policy for that, it would just create extra work for admins. Because no one bloody follows the current image policies for cards when uploading anyway, so I can't see why they would for other stuff. As for the other merchandise, I don't really care one way or the other.

:::::About time, I am thinking of that bloody time... Many users always shove up the image with random address links, which making it extreme annoy for all you - Admins - to get them moving ''then'' fixing all related articles that it used to be exist as former... So guess restricted those spams to just tutor of correct way to upload them? --<span style="font-family: 'Bookman Old Style';">[[User:FredCat100|<span style="color:black;"><font size="3">F</font></span>]][[User talk:FredCat100|<span style="color:black;"><font size="2">r</font></span>]][[User:FredCat100/friends|<span style="color:black;"><font size"2">e</font></span>]][[User:FredCat100/Ruling List|<span style="color:black;"><font size="2">d</font></span>]][[User:FredCat100/Disambiguation/Memoir_(disambiguation)|<span style="color:black;"><font size="3">C</font></span>]][[User:FredCat100/Research|<span style="color:black;"><font size="2">a</font></span>]][[Special:Contributions/FredCat100|<span style="color:black;"><font size="2">t</font></span>]]</span> 00:45, September 10, 2011 (UTC)
 
 
:Just a note, you shouldn't be deleting and reuploading files just to rename them; [[Special:ListGroupRights|admins]] all have the "movefile" user right, which lets us rename them just like any other page. ;) <span style="white-space:nowrap;">「[[User:Dinoguy1000|<span style="color:#00f;">ディノ</span><span style="color:#080;">奴</span>]][[Special:Contributions/Dinoguy1000|<span style="color:#F90;">千?!</span>]]」<sup>[[wikipedia:Help:IJP|?]] · [[User talk:Dinoguy1000#top|☎ Dinoguy1000]]</sup></span> 20:43, September 9, 2011 (UTC)

::::Yup. Just make sure to go back and fix the links if you do suppress the redirect. And we don't want image redirects to exist, unlike card page redirects. There's a good reason for it that I can't remember. Delt can tell you.

:::::Or me, I'm the one who originally told him. ;)
 
:::::If an image is used only through its redirects, that image appears on [[Special:UnusedFiles]], which ultimately only clutters that list up. <span style="white-space:nowrap;">「[[User:Dinoguy1000|<span style="color:#00f;">ディノ</span><span style="color:#080;">奴</span>]][[Special:Contributions/Dinoguy1000|<span style="color:#F90;">千?!</span>]]」<sup>[[wikipedia:Help:IJP|?]] · [[User talk:Dinoguy1000#top|☎ Dinoguy1000]]</sup></span> 18:14, September 11, 2011 (UTC)
