Hi, everyone. Did you notice that the style guide does not mention the images? Yes. Today, I'm going to petite image rules/usage on articles.

Some images in articles are just useless. I mean, imagine an image of Trapper fighting a Sniper or an image of two squares and three triangles.

If one is going to say that something is wrong then one must point out what's wrong with it and why. So, here I go. Images must at least say something. What could said images say? Imagine an article with random useless sentences instead of random useless images. How would the article look like? Maybe like this: (Yes door pencil. Table running rain. She not victory. Link plesant abusive scream. Doctor diplomat waveform. loves hell paradox metal.)

I started to remove such images, but my edits were reverted by a user. I tried to talk to the user hopefully the user agrees with me. Or maybe me changing my mind. However, it didn't end up well. The user just literally wrote "I stand firm to my statement." ending the conversation completely and told me to make a petition if I want to w/o any agreement in the end.

Two other users did come in. The first user told me that images of no use and detractive images are not the same and only detractive images should be removed. That user was right about the difference, but I still oppose. Redundant images do not deserve to stay on the article too. The other user said that images that do not provide any information should be deleted. I agree with that user and some other users would agree too. But someone would need judge if images are useless or not.

Can't there just be some rules in the style guide? That way, people will not need to keep arguing. Just follow the rules and that's it.
