Whether an image is sourced or licensed is generally not a determining factor in whether something is a copyright violation, unless the license is something like Creative Commons. If a source or license is required, then it's incumbent upon the uploader/user&mdash;not the whole wikia&mdash;to ensure that the image meets whatever licensing requirements there are. If it does not meet the licensing requirements and the copyright holder wants the image taken down, the copyright holder can send a DMCA takedown notice to Wikia.

Hope that clears things up.
