Hi guys.

So I'm assuming the images added in Locations that created a dispute are;

The 100 Map (Locations) .png

LocationsRealLifeMap2.jpg

LocationsRealLifeMap.jpg

So here is some context;

if I recall correctly at the time they were added we didn't have a good reference regarding the different locations and their real-life equivalent. Pictures we had as screencaps from the show weren't entirely clear, so fans went out and tried to puzzle the locations together. That's how the picutres above came into existence.

You're correct, neither of these images are official. They were created as an addition to the images we got in the show so that us fans could better match the locations from the show to the real world. At the time this was useful. Now, they might be deemed unnecessary. Therefore, if anyone wishes for these fanmade images to be deleted, I'd agree to that no problem.

If I understand it correctly the second matter is also in regards to fanmade images being added to the wiki in the future?

For that issue I can't give a clear answer, and community census would be needed. The thing is that we don't allow gifs on the wiki for copyright issues (because gifmakers generally don't like their gifs to be taken). We should think in a similar way towards other fan images, like the Wonkru logo I've seen put up for debate.

Since this logo is in-universe (in contrary to a map of real world locations), I wouldn't put a fanmade image of it on this wiki. If the show doesn't release one, then refer to the clearest images you have on screencaps. But this wiki isn't in the business of making logos of clans themselves.

I would like to clarify that just because I added those pictures, and I happen to be an admin, that it's not automatically correct. I can have errors in judgement of what is good content for the wiki too. In general my edits will always be to make information more clear to the people who visit this wiki. But I can be wrong too. For that reason it's so important that members of the community point it out, and that we reach a consensus together.

So I thank Janus for creating the suggestion on the suggestion board. If needed we will review the subject and see if we can clarify things in the wiki's policy regarding updating images for the future.
