:I hope you're aware of what [[User:randomanon|randomanon]] said in [[Talk:Guidelines]] about people getting confused by fanart images. The disclaimers were originally added by [[User:Mutopis|Mutopis]] as plain text, separately on every page, so I made a template, just to organize things a bit. Personally, I don't see much sense in putting a fanart disclaimer in "fanart" section, too... --[[User:KFYatek|kFYatek]] 10:27, 17 May 2011 (UTC)

Revision as of 10:34, 17 May 2011

Is it really needed to have this disclaimer? I mean, the sections are called fanart, so I suppose people can guess it's fan-created and non-canon ... --Homerun-chan 09:55, 17 May 2011 (UTC)
