We've always had no set limits on the number of personal images users can upload here; we just encourage them not to abuse the system since that's what it's for. However, an increasing number of users have been uploading far too many, and I'm thinking that if we had a limit in place, at least we would be able to say, 'see, look, this in our rules'. So this is a vote: for or against? If you're for imposing a limit and you've got an idea of what that limit should be, say that too.
At the moment, I'm not going to vote, as I'm not sure whether we should have a limit.GP
For: make a set limit

If this succeeds what should the limit be? I would say 15-20 images, it's big, but not too big. File:Olimar.jpgJoshazilla23File:Louie.jpg
I'd have to go dynamic limit better pics get right--File:Large pixal snowy bulborb.PNGYuki no Bulborb
I'd say about 15-20 images, depending on the size.--FREAK ~Game

- ...5, maybe 7.--Prezintenden
I would personally prefer it to be low, something like 5, but people seem to want more. Maybe 10, like CL said. Obviously we'd take into account any really huge images.GP
Well it depends on the size of the picture. If the pictures are small then I say 10-15; if the pictures a huge, I say 5-7.--FREAK ~Game Freak~OUT! 16:49, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
- ...Now what? Average gives 12-15. If I say that images can be hosted externally, using, eg., ImageShack (though then you can't do resizing/caption/thumbnail), and that fan stuff can go to the Pikmin Fan wiki thing, does it make this seem large? What do people need this many images for? At the moment, not many people are over 10. Mm. Opinions?GP
- How many user images could one person need? One or two for a sig, and possibly another one for their userpage. I would say the limit should be five, but I have not used them. Yoshord
I think that you should only have up to 10 user images if they are small or medium sized, that maximum decreasing if the images are large sized with five being the lowest maximum amount of images. I also agree with Green that the fanon stuff should go to Pikcanon-NOT, the pikmin fanon wiki, as we really need some new not copied content there

- I now say 7. K? I WILL NEVER EVER GO TO THAT PIKMIN SPECULATION WIKI! I'm ~Lonely Turret~ And I approve this message.
It's not all speculation.--FREAK ~Game Freak~OUT! 01:43, 20 July 2009 (UTC)
- Well, it seems to come out to around 9-11 now (...yes, the average I said before was wrong...). Does anyone have any objections to me making it 10?GP
Meh, people have different opinions. The one with too much speculation I think is Zelda Fanon Wiki! So many random charcters and so many stories and so many weapons, enemies, and...GAHH! it hurts my head just thinking about it. P.S. 10 pics sound fine.--FREAK ~Game Freak~OUT! 15:10, 20 July 2009 (UTC)
Videos
Uh, while we're at it, what do we do with videos? They get uploaded now and then, and often don't serve any purpose to the wiki itself. And how, if it all, do we allow them?--Prezintenden
