 Additional images used for 'illustration' purposes should not be used unless important information is being conveyed that could otherwise not be conveyed through text.
-Images should be directly related to the article, i.e. they should not have a tenuous link to page content.
+Images should be directly related to the article, i.e. they should not have a tenuous link to page content or be inserted for their shock or humor value.
 If there are too many images related to a page, they can be moved to a gallery section or to a separate page (examples of both can be viewed [[List_of_Genuine_Islamic_Inventions_Innovations_Records_and_Firsts#Image_Gallery|here]] and [[Muhammad_Teddy_Bear_Blasphemy_-_Images|here]]).
-Images within written articles should also be tasteful. For example, in an article about [[stoning]], the least graphic image should be chosen. Or in an article about [[Diseases and Cures in the Wings of Houseflies|houseflies and bacteriophages]], an electron micrograph of bacteriophages should be chosen over the closeup image of a fly (which some people may find sickening).
+Articles at WikiIslam are not judged on their shock value, so images within written articles should be tasteful. For example, in an article about [[stoning]], the least graphic image should be chosen. Or in an article about [[Diseases and Cures in the Wings of Houseflies|houseflies and bacteriophages]], an electron micrograph of bacteriophages should be chosen over the closeup image of a fly (which some people may find sickening).
