That's kinda the point, all characters on this wiki have squared images, except for three. Making our pages, at least the top part, consistent and uniform across almost every page. I also don't see the desire to emulate other wikis, we are our own place. Just because they have something doesn't mean we should have it too. o_O

'''Just to be clear; I am perfectly fine with having a full body image for the Titan form of characters, since they vary radically from Titan shifter to Titan shifter, and Titan shifter to Titan. What I was never okay with was adding an image of the character to the appearance section; mainly because the only thing being added was the body which, for most of the characters, is the same uniform with possibly a different "shirt" under the jacket, and a different pose. The Beast Titan's human profile image can easily be cropped to be from the shoulders up. Heck, even before his human form was shown, he had a squared image like all the other characters. His human form was also cropped, not quite in an exact square, but somehow made its way into a rectangle to show more of his pants and boots...'''

The only exceptions to a squared image, would be Heath - because he's a deceased character from a spin off, so he'll likely never get another image, and the First King - though technically he would still follow the change of a rectangle image for Titan shifters because that is his Titan form. Mind you, I tried to get as close to a square as possible without distorting or leaving out the character in any way.

In each of the trial pages you made, you've edited the official image to remove the background. But apart from removing text from images (and possibly speech bubbles if they "distort" the profile image), I would prefer we not edit the images any more than that. There was a wiki I went to where they "made" the images based off official images. I would hope this wiki never ends up doing that. I would prefer to stay away from any sort of heavy editing to images. There also seems the possibility that the sizes, or just the widths, between the manga and anime images can vary. Making it possible to be visually inconsistent within the same page.

As usual, my comment is longer than intended.
