All '''images''' in this wiki must be categorized with the [[:Category:Image wiki templates|proper template]]. Images without the proper template will be promptly deleted, because we'll assume that you didn't have permission to use it. If you're unsure about using a particular image or work from an author, ask them first ''(Brian's a nice guy, he won't bite if you write a decent email)''. Images in the public domain are aight, you can use them whenever you want.

Please see Wikia:Licensing for details of the licensing on this wiki.
The following is a rehash of the above link for easier digestion.

The Creative Commons License[]

Basically, under the Creative Commons License that Wikia is under, you may freely share and adapt the work to fit Sardapedia appropriately. You only need to do the following things:

  • You must attribute the work to whoever created it (i.e.: 8-bit Theater was created by Brian Clevinger).
  • When sharing whatever you put in this wiki elsewhere, it must also be under this license or something similar.

Unless you've got the author's permission to do so, you can ignore the above two conditions. Otherwise, the work is under fair use. We are a not-for-profit, informative wiki, not a business.

Wikipedia (or TOW, however you wanna call it) uses the Creative Commons license. Using the same license as that site makes it easy for Wikia users to reuse the content from Wikipedia. You must adhere to the CC license when using Wikipedia content.

Image guidelines[]

Do not upload entire comic pages! They will be deleted and you will get an instant ban.
You will need to appeal in your user talk page if you wish for it to be lifted.
Otherwise...

All images in this wiki must be categorized with the proper template. Images without the proper template will be promptly deleted, because we'll assume that you didn't have permission to use it.

Though you can't upload an entire comic page, you may upload a snippet of that page. For webcomics, it's fine if you leave speech bubbles intact. For published not-free comics (like Atomic Robo), you must blank out speech bubbles to avoid spoilers.

If you're unsure about using a particular image or work from an author, ask them first (Brian's a nice guy, he won't bite if you write a decent email). Images in the public domain are aight, you can use them whenever you want.
