On the [[Animage]] article, you replaced an older cover image with a very recent one. Please do not do this. The only image that should replace the current cover image is a cover image for issue #1. I actually have a copy of that, so I will be scanning it and adding it to the article.

[[File:Ambox warning blue.svg|35px|text-top|left|⚠|link=]] Thanks for uploading '''[[:File:Animage December 2018 cover.jpg]]'''. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a [[WP:FU|claim of fair use]]. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see [[Wikipedia:Non-free content#Policy|our policy for non-free media]]). |

Hi I see you've been replacing the cover images in various articles about magazines with current (November 2024) issues. With these kind of images, one should be wary of a tendency towards [[WP:RECENT|recentism]], and it is worth bearing in mind that non-free images, such as magazine covers, are liable to be deleted if they are no longer used in WP articles. Particularly in articles about long-running publications, it might be worth considering retaining "historic" covers elsewhere in the article?
