Experimental nature, please carefully verify this image. Each character in this series will have 3 different variant images, and the pure versions of this character (3 images) have already been uploaded. I found a version with text and wanted to upload it because some people might prefer this magazine-style feel. However, I’m concerned that there might be too many similar images, as adding the text version would result in 6 images for the same character.

@mayic We had to replace all of your previous uploads with the pure images because the ones you are or were mass-posting from are third-party sourced images that were upscaled and edited, meaning in this case they're not coming from an official Zenless Zone Zero account. We don't accept these except in select circumstances because they're not the original image. You shouldn't be uploading these even if it's just for "variety".

Fandom has proper assets for you to upload from if you want to continue uploading the rest of the Mindscape Cinemas.

@WRS I have learned that upscaled images are prohibited, and I apologize for that matter. As for the prohibition of third-party sourced content, this is the first time I’m becoming aware of it, since some similar images have already been approved by moderation—ones that also cited wiki sources as mentioned in the "third-party sourced" description. If I use the same wiki as those approved images, would that comply with the website’s standards?

And thank you for your detailed explanation.

Third-party sources are only okay in select circumstances, such as if we absolutely don't have a first-party sourced image available (meaning via third-party is the only way to get the image). It's not possible to list all of the safe reasons to accept a third-party in one comment, it's very situational. Additionally, some may have been approved or uploaded by mistake; an approval from an approver (approvers aren't moderators) doesn't necessarily mean there was no issue with the post.

@WRS Understood. I will refrain from uploading this type of image and will only use the websites mentioned above. In cases of similar ambiguities in the future, I will also employ the "test image" method to verify compliance with standards, thereby avoiding bulk uploads of incorrect images. Thank you for your patient explanation.
