Some comments on fan made images:

Fan made copies of symbols & maps seen on the show are often done to give better clarity. However there is no "perfect" copy. These copies may have errors or there may be disagreement on details. Putting them within articles may create the impression that they're canon/official images when they are not.

If allowing fan-made images within articles, should they be allowed in infobox or should only official images be used there? (Btw, there is nothing stating that group's symbol is preferred over a screenshot for infobox image. The symbol can be placed later in the article.) Should fan-made images be explicitly stated to be so within the article to remove reader confusion?

Similar to what is mentioned in gif post above, what should the upload policy be? Depending on various factors, the image creator may be able to claim copyright. While simply copying a symbol would generally not grant the fan their own copyright, that doesn't prevent someone from claiming so, e.g. redbubble user georginaa claims copyright over this image. Again, we're a community of The 100 fans and we don't want to be at odds with other The 100 fans. So, in general, regardless of image legal rights, the wiki should play nice with other fans.
