Why I am re-labeling so many PSP Boxarts as "Fanart"

I've been trying to make YouTube videos covering the games from the PlayStation Minis line, but have repeatedly been met with misinformation and accidental historical revisionism. Long story short, ever since the Web Browser version of the PlayStation store that showed PSP, PS3 and Vita titles was changed to only show PS4 and PS5 games, a ton of digital only titles for those 3 systems have had their official thumbnails "Lost" online. They're out there, but scattered and usually required some hunting. Worse yet, some sites have been overwriting them with fake, fanmade boxarts that suggest they had a Physical UMD release. While there is a very small amount of Minis that had some type of UMD release, over 90% of them Do Not.

I decided 2 weeks ago to go through the list of nearly 300 PlayStation Minis and recover and mirror as many thumbnails as possible on Launchbox and GameFAQs so they are more easily accessible. I just finished 2 days ago and am performing my cleanup sweep. I'm making sure those fanmade boxarts are labeled as such here.

I just wanted to give a heads up so people don't think I am vandalizing all these pages or something.
