Forum:Image naming from the Image Policy

The Image Policy currently has rather lengthy guidelines on choosing a name for the image being uploaded, based on whether the card has been released in the TCG. However, surely it would be simpler to just ask people to mirror the spelling used by the card's article? For reference, the TCG/OCG section of the current guideline reads: "CardName is the official English Card Name of the card (if it exists in the English TCG) OR, the commonly-accepted English translation of the card's name from Japanese (if it does NOT exist in the English TCG). If you're dealing with Japanese OCG-only cards, a good source of accepted English name translations are the numerous Yu-Gi-Oh! video games. If at all possible, try to get the name from the NEWEST of these (i.e., try WC6 first, then NTR, then WC5, and so on). (emphasis in original)" A suggested version would read approximately as follows: "CardName should reflect the name of the card's article. (examples may or may not follow)" This change would also be applicable to the Anime/Manga section. Thoughts?

On a related note, the guideline currently has no instructions specifically for card images from video games, even though there are a large number of such images currently on the wiki. What is the preferred naming method for such images? 「 ダイノ ガイ 千？！ 」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 22:17, April 20, 2010 (UTC)
