Now you might be asking how this could even be accomplished. How could it ever be done? Well, Wikirby went through the same process earlier this year and the year prior and successfully took ALL files and properly updated their licensing, as well as major categorical, quality, and informational updates in the process. This would be a good way to ensure that everything is up to date, at an appropriate quality, and that there aren't perhaps accidental duplicate images of the same thing. I am confident that the methods [https://wikirby.com/w/index.php?title=WiKirby:Project_Clean-Up&action=history used on the Wikirby platform] can work here with enough effort. I expect this to be a lengthy project, but it will be extremely useful when completed. If you have questions, feel free to ask me here or on discord.

:I can't say I'm an expert in any of this, so I'll mostly leave it to more knowledgeable people than I to really make any decisions. My chief concerns are: achievement images, since these are hard to acquire except from specific sites; screenshots, which are the bread and butter of most guides; and artwork images that you can't really get from a screenshot alone. As long as modifying the licensing doesn't make it too hard to acquire these images, then I'm sure whatever works, works.
