I feel like this should be changed to "Collectible article policy" or something like that, because fruits aren't the only major collectibles: we've got ship parts in Pikmin and treasures in Pikmin 2. Ship part, treasure, and fruit articles can all follow the same general layout. ~PikFan23 04:07, 6 March 2016 (EST)

Real world images

Results May Vary's recent changes pointed out how some real world images of treasures are pointless, since users can just check Wikipedia for them. I agree, but only partially. Maybe we should make it a guideline that if a subject has images that are hard to find, or only very specific real world variations exist, then we should have an image on the Pikipedia article, if it is under a good license. Otherwise, if it's something anybody knows of, and can instantly find in the equivalent Wikipedia article, like a watermelon, it shouldn't be included in the article. I think we should have some way of linking to an external image in this case though, for convenience's sake. Thoughts? — {EspyoT} 11:15, 5 October 2018 (EDT)
