Forum:Sources for Unreleased Material

So recently I've noticed a lot of pictures/information being added to Z related pages with the only source/reference being "One Piece Film: Z". Since the movie is not out yet, and we cannot confirm most of these things, I think we need to have the actual sources that people use to get these things, such as links to forums, magazine scans, etc. If we had real sources for things, it would be a lot easier for us to deal with things that are possible violations of the Spoiler Rules or just false information. Also, for things like trailers, we should require the source where people saw the trailer, since I'm sure most of those images come from Youtube, which is a violation of the Image Guidelines.

Here are some examples of images with inadequate sources:

There are also several kinds of article edits that deal with unreleased things that really need sources, like the endless edit war that's been going on for the last month or so about what episode of the anime will be the first episode of the Punk Hazard Arc. Or just blatant violations of the Spoiler Rules, like this.

I'm not entirely sure what to do about these kinds of issues, but it might be necessary to treat these things like unconfirmed info or sourceless images and just have them all undone or deleted until an adequate source is provided. 06:47, November 18, 2012 (UTC)

 * Great, sources (kind of) for those 4 examples of a widespread probelm. Now what we actually need to do is discuss and develop a clear rule to deal with these kinds of things in the future. 07:18, November 18, 2012 (UTC)

Most of the images/informations are taken from http://www.onepiece-film.com/, http://www.toei-anim.co.jp/ , http://www.shonenjump.com/e/ and other official sites.

Again, I don't really care about where the examples I used came from. I just used them as examples. What I would like to do is make some kind of rule or clarification on how these kinds of images should be sourced in the future. And I think if they cannot be properly sourced, they should be deleted much like we do with images that have no source. 18:28, November 21, 2012 (UTC)

Why cannot be sourced? It's either the website or the trailer, if the website you add the link, if the trailer you simply add "From the 12th movie" since the trailer show images from the movie itself.
