If it's published by Image, or an imprint, it goes on this site and it's permanent. We don't get rid of content when it moves. It was on Image, it gets documented by Image Database.

Volumes are respective to Image published materials only. I've spoken with other publisher admins and we agree there's enough information in the volume description that people can figure it out.

Non-canon source can be referenced if critical for explaining canon material but should be called out.

If issues are bought, if Image is going to print it, and no active wikia exists for the material, this is the grey area. We should point to the wikia authoritative source if it exists. So characters from DC, Marvel etc should point to those wikias and not recreate pages for them. Alternate option is wikipedia pages. If image is going to be the only print publisher, we can cover it here.

I owe John and the community a policy on this though. I think it's cut and clear 99% of the time. John recently expressed concern on another wiki about this and we owe it to start working on this. I think there's fine tuning to happen, but it hasn't been a priority or issue to bring up for us since the 90s and early 2000s which tends to be John's area of expertise.
