Keep in mind that these policies are ultimately guidelines. If it's found that a policy restricts something that the reason the policy was created didn't intend to restrict, then the policy should be changed.

Images could be a great help to articles, not only to add design but also to guide the readers and make articles user-friendly. But the Rules of Survival Wiki made a policy for images and it is strictly implemented and should be followed at all cause.
