Revision as of 21:27, June 4, 2008
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)
- Are you really as clueless as the above post suggests? The article itself says that Europa is also the name of a moon of Jupiter. In sum, this is a disambiguation article in all but name. So, of course that extra image is appropriate. And does not the continent of Europe have its own page? No—this is an article about a word that can stand for at least two things and probably three. None of these things is necessarily more important than any other.--TerryHTalk 15:27, 4 June 2008 (EDT)
- Is it really necessary to get nasty? We're trying to come to a conclusion here and work out a disagreement, so do you really think it is going to help matters to insult me?
- This page doesn't look like a disambiguation page to me. It looks like a page for the name "Europa" as applied to the continent in many languages, with "also" information about the moon and person tagged on.
- If it's a disambiguation page, it should probably be made into one.
- As for me, I am done with this. I assume you won't be punished for making personal remarks, even though I would be, but that doesn't mean I have to continue to converse with you. Again, you are free to do as you like.--Tom Moorefiat justitia ruat coelum 15:35, 4 June 2008 (EDT)
