Wikipedia Pictures

It seems that the AI war page on Wikipedia is in need of a box shot and screenshot, can we get one that won't be removed because of copyright violation (a previous one was)?

If we weren't going for your money, you wouldn't have gotten as much value for it!

Oh, wait... *causation loop detonates*

Well, I don't know why they removed the last one. We don't particularly carr what promo materials people use of ai war on their sites...

I think they're pretty aggressive about removing anything that's under copyright unless it meets a certain set of rules.  I think "written permission" works, but I'm not sure what counts for that.

The content's gotta be from the IP creator by wikipedia policies. So if someone from Arcen Games were to post a screenshot and watermark it with the company's logo or something, I think it'd stick. Otherwise, it'd probably get pulled. Wikipedia lost a few battles to DMCA trolls and has grown conservative in it's old age.
