Forum:Image clean up

We currently have 779 unused images on this wiki. I think it is about time we cleaned some of them out. I would like to start by deleting all unused images that are screenshots, but I think this should be considered only the first stage. This forum topic can serve as a warning of the coming storm, if you see any images you want kept, either put them into an article to remove them from the unused files list, or place them into this topic by name along with a reason why they should be saved.

While screenshots will come under fire first, now is the time to start sorting out all images worthy to remain alive.

I will also put down what types of images should not exist on this wiki at all and will not be saved even if listed here:
 * Watermarked images (not allowed)
 * Images with a url (only exception is if the image is official and url goes to an official Blizzard site)
 * Unused fan art (may only be used outside main space articles)
 * Unused user images (may only be used outside main space articles)

Any other questions/comments related to this may also be discussed here. I won't begin deleting anything for at least 24 hours. ◄► Tephra ◄► 00:27, January 17, 2015 (UTC)

I'm fine with the listed images above being removed, but I don't think a mass deletion is the way to go. I've slowly been creating sub-categories for images over time - I think sub-categorization is the way to go since the images can be accessed later, but not shifted through.--Hawki (talk) 12:54, January 17, 2015 (UTC)

 * While I can agree that some unused images might be worth keeping, I think a lot, perhaps a majority, aren't. Some wikis are far more strict than this one and don't allow any unused images, I think that is unreasonable, but I don't think going the complete opposite and keeping everything is reasonable either.
