The least they could do is to credit MT as a source, but no.That's not the case.
They also ripped our Indy Arts.

About a dozen times now, I've tried to get Minitokyo users listed as mangaka tags because even though they slam together wallpapers, many of them still draw, edit, and compose elements of the picture. When those wallpapers end-up on Zerochan, I think it's only proper to list them as an additional mangaka, if possible.However, during my rounds of going through Artist Requests, I've had mangaka tags for Minitokyo users/artists deleted or straight-up ignored. A few of those tags also end-up in Null, so that doesn't help, at all. Half the time, a handful of those tags do make it through for seemingly no reason.
Does Zerochan have some weird prejudice against Minitokyo users that I should know about? I'm really trying to be fair about adding credit where it's due.

I believe the old rule was that wallpaper editors do not count as 'artists'. I remember Hiiragi Ryo being made an exception since they draw all their backrounds.It might be better to leave a comment for credit for now.

@hericide Even if they draw or redraw components of the image?

In all seriousness guys, tell me why we shouldn't be giving credit to these guys when they at least contribute to the composition of the wallpaper.
If you don't want to name Minitokyo users on the site, then ban the posting of works from Minitokyo (and AnimePaper).
