Forums: Index > Village Dump > The Noopstein Files (AI image discussion)

As you may know from Kurtz's talk page, we had a HUGE conversation about the future of AI images on this website. Flamewars ensued, blah blah blah, Russel's Teapot. We then decided that starting a forum would be a better idea. Now, I'm off to eating my breakfast right now, but here's all of the evidence and disputes that I've found. Discuss them as you please.

Well, that's all the evidence that I found for now. Although most of these disputes have been resolved, it still adds to Noopnurf's belief that this website openly disapproves of AI images. And although I do agree that green-lighting AI images is a bit of a slippery slope, I have begun to fix some of these images (Notably File:Ukrainium alt.png), though I can't do it forever. So let's discuss the future and fate of these images. Maybe we have to vote on this topic! All I want is an agreement between us all.

As copied from Kurtz, here's a potential AI image policy.
  • No rules against creating AI images, but they should be used within, say, 48 hours from creation
  • If a better image can be found, use it, but keep the original AI image around for maybe a month(?) for author preference
  • No AI articles. Most of the time the writing isn't funny.

Here's my potential policy on AI:
  • No AI articles, those are subject to QVFD, VFD, FFW, etc...
  • AI images are allowed... BUT:
    • If a replacement is found, communicate it to the owner like how you'd replace a regular image with your own. It's rude to simply run over someone's stuff, even if it's "AI".
    • If the user is no longer active, burniate them as you please.

@Gergdown: so I'd like to contribute to this conversation
  • about that "Ukranium" image, I removed both the AI one and the non-AI replacement from the Ukraine article, because none of them seemed to fit in the article imo. I didn't delete Fish's image because it was being used in her gallery, but as far as I'm aware that's the only place where you can see that file being used. I can't remember why I deleted the other file; but it was probably due to it not being used anywhere.
  • about that "File:Donutpedia.png", I can't deny that I shouldn't have done that filename move; I mostly did it since I thought it'd only be used in Noopnurf's page. however there are already too many articles with custom logos and I think I should get rid of it, AI or otherwise.
  • I got rid of that AI image from Scotland since it was a featured article and normally featured articles aren't changed that much (not that this is a golden rule that's always applied, but still).
  • You're calling that one "The Wallace and Gromit image we all know about", but this is the first time I'm seeing that one image.

@DaniPine3:
  • I see your point with Ukranium. But I do suggest that in your edit summaries, you should put a reason why you removed the image. Like, without that context, it looks like you actively hate AI images. (this is probably an exaggeration, eh, whatever) Same goes with the Scotland one.
  • Is it okay if I move Noopnurf's Donutpedia to Donutpedia (AI)? That'd make things much better for everyone.
  • I wouldn't say adding an image is changing the article a bit too much, especially when the image is funny. (Well, in this case, this image was AI, but... I can potatochop it.)
  • If you haven't seen that Wallace and Gromit image, that's an issYOU, not an issME. ๐Ÿ‚ gergdown๐Ÿ‚(talk) โ˜€๏ธ 00:20, 17 February 2026 (UTC)
