There has been a number of duplicated and misnamed images being deleted as part of a site clean up operation.

For most of you, there won't be any direct effect to your links or image references. Most of the deleted images were redirected to a common version of the file. For those who did not receive redirect treatment, I have edited the image references in public places and contacted the users, asking them to change theirs to the correct files.

However, the operation is not flawless.
 * If one of your battle cards was broken as a result, I apologize for the inconvenience and don't hesitate to file a report here

 * Want to assist the cleanup?
 * 1) Report: duplicate/misnamed files that's not covered in the reference page
 * 2) Report: useful resource that can be added to the reference page
 * 3) Remove: no longer used files from posts and comments. Images without references get deleted eventually by our staff via UnusedFiles special page.
 * 4) Replace: incorrect files with the valid ones in the reference page.
 * 5) Redirect: common filename variations to the correct ones in the reference page. This ensures the existing references continue to work and prevent duplicates to be re-uploaded.
 * 6) If the file existed where a redirection should be, report file for deletion first!
 * 7) Use: the reference page, then the search function before you upload new resources
 * 8) Name: newly uploaded files according to the naming conventions, or at least, try to be sensible. When in doubt, ask first.
 * 9) Report: low quality files, snipped-up images from screenshot that are not from game source. They usually have different file formats and/or faulty image size.
