If I were a copyright owner wanting to issue a takedown notice I'd email the site owners. I'd never create an account (who's going to react to an IP address) on the content abusers system and put a plea on their pages. It would likely escape notice, or be handled by the wrong people, and would make me subservient when I wanted to demand something.

And if I were a guest who liked the image but was wary of takedowns themselves, I'd like to be able to have set up a trail to my use of the image acknowledging the page's copyright declaration. Without File: access, I'd either just steal the image or not use it

Either case will leave guests with a poor opinion of Fandom.com
