Before deleting important material like images please talk to the editor. --User:Joaquín Martínez, talk 00:30, 4 June 2008 (EDT)
- Okay. Why do you have a picture of the moon which is almost as large as the rest of the article, when there is a separate page for the moon upon which that image belongs?
- Also, I decreased the size of the map, which was ridiculous in comparison with the article's content, and fixed the formatting and wording slightly.
- What exactly do you take issue with?--Tom Moorefiat justitia ruat coelum 00:40, 4 June 2008 (EDT)
- See: [1]
by TerryH; he did the article Europa (moon) and like to illustrate the link in that way. I think that pic is nice. 2 to one, the pic remains. You may do the rest of the changes. --User:Joaquín Martínez, talk 01:44, 4 June 2008 (EDT)
- Eh. Kind of pointless if it's still going to look like that, isn't it? I'm glad you like it though, and I'm sure someone else will come along to help with it soon.--Tom Moorefiat justitia ruat coelum 01:52, 4 June 2008 (EDT)
- I put that picture in there, and in that proportion, for a reason: Europa as the name of a moon of Jupiter is at least as important as Europa as the name of a continent. I would, for the same reason, welcome any semi-authoritative illustration of Europa the Phoenician princess as soon as someone wants to write an article about her.--TerryHTalk 09:29, 4 June 2008 (EDT)
- But this is an article about the continent, as you can clearly see because there is a different article about the moon. The moon is certainly important, but it has its own page. Do we really need an enormous image of a different topic on an article, when that article's text is less than a third of its size?--Tom Moorefiat justitia ruat coelum 15:14, 4 June 2008 (EDT)
