Talk:Road of Naruto

images
There's been a back-and-forth across the wiki about whether or not to use images from this video. Rather than continue the cycle of upload --> delete --> undelete --> re-upload, I feel it would be better to actually discuss it.

I personally don't think it matters what the source of an image is so long as the image is a) from an official source, and b) good. It's why so many character articles use promotional artwork for video games, because those video game images are good. And if the wiki has been comfortable with video game images for several years, it should likewise be comfortable with images from this video.

To be clear, I don't know that every potential image that can be taken from this video is "good". Looking at the video again, there are some scenes with lighting effects that might make them inferior to the original anime version. So if the wiki decides to use images from this video, it should be on a case-by case basis. But that applies to basically any image consideration on the wiki; at the risk of picking on Sarutobii2, some users have a bad habit of trying to replace 4:3 images with 16:9 alternatives because they think the extra width somehow makes the image better. But that's not necessarily true and sometimes the 4:3 image is the better option, just as sometimes the original anime option may be better than what's in this video.

Anyway, other opinions welcome. ~SnapperTo 05:04, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
