This is the official One Piece Fanon Wiki's Image Policy. It describes the acceptable guidelines for the uploading and usage of images on the wiki.

Note: These Policies are strongly based on the My Hero Academia Fanon and Fire Force Fanon Image Guidelines page.

General

  • When you upload a new image do not overwrite any existing images. Always upload new images under a new file name.
  • Do not upload pornographic, vulgar, or gory images.
  • If you are using an edited image that comes from an already copyrighted source, that is on another Wikia wiki, you do not have to attribute the wiki it came from, or the user that edited it.
  • Upload images of yourself to the wiki at your own risk.
  • Images taken from outside sources such as Deviantart should be sourced. If for any reason you do not know how to do this, click here to teach yourself how.
    • Do understand that because such images do not belong to you, if requested by the actual artist, you must rightfully remove/delete said image.
  • It is more than just common courtesy to not use a character from another series who has already been taken by another user for use in depicting one of their own, especially if the character in question is one of significant value to our story. While this is not necessarily a rule, please understand that it is nevertheless highly frowned upon behavior.
    • With this in mind, please avoid using mainstream characters to depict your own.
  • Because we are a site based on a manga/anime:
    • Video Game images may not be used unless they are depicted in art form (i.e. cut scenes).
    • Real Life images may not be used under any circumstance.

Attribution

Attribution deals with giving credit to the rightful owners of image content on this wiki. Any images that come from the One Piece manga and/or anime are credited by this wiki to Eiichiro Oda and Toei Animation, their rightful owners.

DeviantArt

The following is the policy regarding images from DeviantArt;

  • If you received your image from DeviantArt, whether you have the author's permission or not, you must give attribution to the author either on the image's page, or on the article the image is featured on. You only need to attribute the author on one of these pages.
  • If, however, the image was bought from a DeviantArt user by the user that is using the image, no attribution to the author needs to be given, as that author has sold the image to a new owner, making it the purchaser's image instead.

Multiple Images

The issue of multiple users using the images of the same character has often been a hot-button issue on this wiki. The policy of this wiki, in regards to this, are as follows.

  • It is allowed for more than one user to use the images of the same character if the following conditions are met;
    • The images in question come from another series (doesn't have to be an anime or manga) that is not owned by either user. For example, two users using images of Monkey D. Luffy for their characters.
    • The images in question come from the main One Piece anime or manga. Since the content of One Piece is only owned by Oda and the anime studio, no one else may claim ownership of their images, even if they are edited versions of those images.
  • It is not allowed for more than one user to use the images of the same character if the following is the case;
    • If the image was created, from scratch, by the user that uploaded the image.
    • If the user paid for the image from a third party source (such as an artist from DeviantArt).

In the latter two cases, if you have the permission of the original creator, then it becomes acceptable for more than one user to have the images of the same character. In the case of paid-for images, however, refer to the section on "Attribution" and see the "DeviantArt" sub-section.

  • First offense: Warning
  • Second offense: 3 day block
  • Third offense: 1 week block
  • Fourth offense: 1 month block

  • If a user is found to have uploaded pornographic, vulgar, or offensive images to the wiki.
