Talk:Everybody Draw Mohammed Day/Requirements for gallery of depictions of Mohammed

The entries shown in the gallery on Everybody Draw Mohammed Day are subject to the following criteria:

1. Entries must be released into the public domain or released under a free license, such as the GFDL or an appropriate Creative Commons license such as Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0.
2. entries may be videos or stills, and
3. Wikipedia and this article’s gallery is not a free-for-all community graffiti wall for contributors to assert their free-speech rights; Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and
4. the prescriptive objective is to keep the gallery topical, germane, and encyclopedic to the subject of Everybody Draw Mohammed Day and, accordingly, all entries must stay narrowly focused on the simple point of showing depictions of Mohammed, and moreover
5. the proscriptive objective is that candidate entries critical of Mohammed, Islam, or religion are regarded as unnecessary provocative, are not in keeping with the subject matter, and shall not be included.
6. The gallery shall be limited to 20 entries.
7. The objective is that the gallery be eclectic and tasteful, with varying stylistic interpretations.
8. Gallery candidates will be drawn from a pool on Commons’ Category:Everybody Draw Mohammed Day. For drawings to automatically appear there, an image’s page should be tagged at the bottom with the [[Category:Everybody Draw Mohammed Day]]-tag.
9. Whereas great latitude may be afforded to the nature of contributions appearing on the Commons category page, those from produced by Wikipedians and which are chosen for inclusion in the gallery shall comply with the requirements of WP:Original images, which holds that Original images created by a Wikipedian are not considered original research, so long as they do not illustrate or introduce unpublished ideas or arguments, the core reason behind the NOR policy. Image captions are subject to this policy no less than statements in the body of the article. Images originally derived from secondary sources are immune to this restriction since secondary sources define “published ideas or arguments.”
10. Except for #9, above, entries originally derived from secondary sources shall comply with all other requirements of this guideline.
11. When the gallery already has 20 entries, a new entry may replace an old one if doing so better improves the gallery per point #7, above.
12. When opposing wiki-guidelines are flying about in edit wars, WP:COMMONSENSE will rigorously be applied in dealing with the gallery.
