Unwritten or not, I still believe the fan artwork being used as an avatar rule should still be in motion unless, of course, the artist has allowed the user to use their artwork for an avatar. Avatars are not apart of our wiki; they are a part of wikia's functions. Besides, how are we supposed to ask people who barely edit and have a fanart avatar for another wiki to remove it? That's how we lose users.

Why enforce a rule that never exited? Aren't you exaggerating? Users aren't going to leave because they were asked to change their avatar. Only the most sensitive user would actually leave for that reason.
