Went for a read in the "Guide for New Members". One of the sentences say "the Kingdom Hearts Wiki has a strict official image only policy." I interpret this as being non-free fair-use images only. There's inconsistency in the way images are handled in this wiki. Let's see if I can list the points here:
  1. Official image. When that happens it invokes fair-use. And fair-use limits how we use these images.
  2. Free images aren't allowed because of past user behavior. Wikia encourages free images, and requests limit on non-free images.
    • However, lots of fair-use images aren't being used based on the limitation. Talk template, notification templates, all go against fair use.
    • Furthermore, fair-use images are removed from articlespace for being redundant (in the case of artwork and render), clutter (although organized in a gallery) and would violate fair-use (although described in a caption).

See how inconsistent we are? Anyone has an argument against these issues?
