 * Unlicensed and Orphaned Images – How to deal with currently unlicensed and/or unrationalized images was called into question. The consensus was to delete any unlicensed, orphaned images upon sight and to tag and license any currently unlicensed images that are in use.
 * Infobox Images – It was decided that images used in infoboxes are to be of the highest possible quality and show the most recent appearance of the character. This means that we prefer using images from InuYasha Kanketsu-hen (The Final Act) and from the original animation series InuYasha Season 6. However, in the cases that characters don't show up in these later seasons, using an image of their latest appearance in the series will suffice.
 * Fuzzy/Blurry Images – As part of a concern about copyright violation, any images with black bars or distortions will be deleted upon sight. These distortions indicate that there is a possibility they are from illegal sources. Rather than risk this possibility, admins will be automatically deleting them. Uploads of better quality images will occur in an attempt to rid the wiki of very low-quality images.
 * Poor Image Names – The problem of unnecessarily long, random image names was brought into question. Consensus was to rename any files that have poor file names to more appropriate names. Community members are encouraged to leave messages on Rowan's talk page if they have any specific image rename requests, as she will be the one carrying out this operation.
 * Featured Articles – The criteria for the wiki's featured articles will be updated and specified in more depth. It was also amongst community consensus to extend featured article times to three months. This is to give the few (*cough* one – Suzaku *cough*) users currently working on FA-worthy articles more time to write them. When we get more contributors with top-notch writing capabilities, this extension will likely be discussed again, and accordingly changed. In an attempt to make up for this, site polls (featured on the main page of the wiki) will be updated every two weeks.
 * RTE Editor – Upon community consensus, if possible, the RTE editor will likely be disabled in the near future. This is in an attempt to get users more familiar with WikiText and formatting of pages. It will help prevent users from unintentionally messing with page coding/formatting, resulting in messy pages with a bunch of mumbo-jumbo.
