Unsourced pictures do NOT need to be removed. Especially on older dramas, where there was no suggestion to do so when they were originally posted. Sourcing the pic falls under current Best Practices, not the current Not Allowed, according to the first posts.

https://mydramalist.com/discussions/support/143628-photo-upload-rules-report-thread?pid=3357566&page=1#p3357566

I think it's difficult to figure out without a source, but there are magazine shoots that are allowed.

xxmai:

Drama-Specific Photoshoots

  • Official photoshoots related directly to the production (e.g., character-focused or promotional sessions).

My Demon Photos - MyDramaList (2023 - 2024)

Except for the most recent 3 promos I just now posted with valid links and except for the cover image, literally everything else in this entire photo section is unsourced, low quality, fan edits, etc.

For the person above: I can't reply because the post is too long but idk I was just adding some stuff and was going by the current rules. That much is up to staff if they want to leave unsourced images or not. Also, according to the rules only official promo shoots related to the series are allowed, not magazine shoots.

Two of your recent photos is from reddit, which is not official source of photo posting.

Some of the posted photos are from the actors's official studios, which are allowed by MDL.

Read the rules I linked. BEST PRACTICES means that is what is ideal, what they would like people to do. It does not mean it is forbidden and against the new rules. If we remove all the unsourced pics, that means almost EVERYTHING posted before this year would be deleted. Not posting duplicates has always been a 'rule.'

The whole point of the thread is to help the staff. It isn't helpful to the staff if you post a giant list of pics that aren't a problem, and they have to click on each one, and it turns out they don't need to be removed.

I quoted the relevant rule and a link to the post that allows magazine shoots IF they are promoting the drama, and clearly, if they have the multiple cast there, it's to promote the drama.

Okay, I'm not here to argue I just explained that I was only following current practiced not knowing apparenlty yours are grandfathered in somehow and also thought they weren't allowed because i was not referencing "best practices" i was referencing the part that actually says not allowed.

NOT ALLOWED

  • Fan Content:

    • No fan art. No edited images with fan logos, watermarks, stamps, or overlays.

  • Irrelevant Photoshoots:

    • Magazine spreads or unrelated promotional photoshoots, even if featuring cast members, are not permitted unless officially tied to the series.

Oh, I didn't know reddit wasn't allowed. THanks for letting me know.

No where in this quote does it say anything about 'unsourced' pics are Not Allowed.

None of the images you have been listing are mine. There are no special rules that only apply to me. As I said before, everyone, not just me, used to post pictures without sources.

I'm not arguing. I'm pointing out that you are NOT following the current practices. There's a difference between Best Practices and Not Allowed.

Yes, your quote says IRRELEVANT Photoshoots are Not Allowed. Ones that 'unrealated' to the drama promotion. But as you can see below, DRAMA Specific Photoshoots that are "related" to the production are Allowed.

xxmai:

ALLOWED

  • Drama-Specific Photoshoots

    • Official photoshoots related directly to the production (e.g., character-focused or promotional sessions).

"Allowed Drama specific photoshoots related directly to production" seems to me like it does NOT refer to magazine shoots and magazine company shoots are not allowed. OFFICIAL PHOTOSHOOTS are, yes. Like, from the production company... I thought that much was clear.

Either way, I've reached out for clarification and will see what staff responds with because it's not as though I'm TRYING to make this any harder for them. I genuinely don't know if that qualifies and I've always included unsourced because I was told multiple times that ANYTHING unsourced is subject to deletion. Not sure if that doesn't apply to old pics or not but again, i asked for clarification on that because timing is not mentioned anywhere on the first page.

Both headings are for PHOTOSHOOTS, not magazines, so the question is not whether it is a magazine shoot, but whether or not it is promotional material tied to the series. Even the NOT ALLOWED rule says magazines photoshoots are allowed IF they meet that criteria.
