What Are Orphaned Files?
In the context of this archive, an orphaned file is an image that has lost its original source.
These files may be:
- Cropped, resized, or compressed versions of the original
- Saved thumbnails from social media platforms or galleries
- Artworks with watermarks, artifacts, or editing from reposts
- Fragments or partial images without artist credit
- Low-quality versions where a better version may have once existed
They are called orphaned because the original, full-quality source has been removed, deleted, or is currently unknown (lost media).
How to Help
Our goal is to preserve and present artwork in its highest quality and most complete form, while also ensuring proper attribution to the original creators.
Contributors are encouraged to help locate and restore the original clean versions, whether from personal backups, other archives, or another source.
On an orphaned file, Edit the page and add [[Category:Orphaned Files]] at the bottom of the page to help populate the list of orphaned files below.
