In this thread a couple users were saying that an image from an animated movie should go on a western animation subpage, not a film subpage, of a given trope.

This strikes me as odd because I could have sworn I saw it officially confirmed before that examples from animated movies go in film. Is it different for page images than for examples? If so, where do examples from animated movies go, and where do page images from animated movies go?

Animated feature-length film examples go in Film — Animated. That's the official ruling.

[up]What's the official ruling on Western Animation/Anime vs Films on namespaces?

Also, do anime films also go on Film — Animated, or just the regular Anime and Manga folder?

So far, Anime films stay in Anime, as far as I know, both for media categories and Namespaces. But that line has always been tricky to draw.

[up][up][up] Not all tropes have the distinction between live action movies and animated movies... nor should they, IMO. Movies incorporating aspects both of animation and of live action kind of blur the line.

So do I have the go-ahead to add that Oliver And Company screenshot from the other thread to the film subpage of woobie?
