What were the photos uploaded by me deleted for? They were from a Youtube Press Conference available here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yit0Uj2plEM .

Since the source is verified, I believe there's no harm in keeping those images.

Your definition of "verified" does not fit with our Images policy, I'm afraid. Specifically, the images were removed for being unsourced (which they are). They're also quite a poor quality, and from pre-release promotional material - something we try to avoid if we can at all. --Jasca Ducato (talk | contributions) 11:08, October 15, 2015 (UTC)
So basically, if I arrange better images (which I will if it's ok) and source them, then can it be allowed? Because you cannot avoid pre-release material as far as an "upcoming" product is concerned.

There is a preference to not use screenshots from Youtube videos, yes, but seeing as the game itself isn't out yet, we've little alternatives. The images for Crawford Starrick and Lucy Thorne are also stills from youtube videos. If you source the images correctly (I left you a message a few days on your talkpage regarding the sourcing policy), then I don't see why we can't use them :) Crook The Constantine District 13:37, October 16, 2015 (UTC)
We can avoid pre-release material for an upcoming product quite easily; don't upload it. Any pre-release material is subject to change, and should only ever really be uploaded if it is sufficiently high quality, or deliberately released by Ubisoft for the purposes of depicting a character (see here). Gameplay trailers are notoriously bad choices to pull any sort of information/images from, as they are almost never representative of actual in-game events. --Jasca Ducato (talk | contributions) 14:41, October 16, 2015 (UTC)
