Revision to description[edit]

Please see the discussion here: wikipedia:Talk:Axial_precession_(astronomy)#Cause for my justification for the revisions here [1] to the description. ErikHaugen (talk) 04:22, 18 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Go ahead and fix it, if you want. But don't blank it; until it gets deleted, it needs to be available for use, and during a DR it especially needs to be available so people can evaluate whether or not it should be deleted.--Prosfilaes (talk) 23:34, 3 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Editors can easily see the old version during the DR. It needs to not be available for use, actually, since it is misleading. ErikHaugen (talk) 23:43, 3 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Based on that theory, we could trigger editwars on half the maps in Commons. You do not get to blank an image just because you don't like it.--Prosfilaes (talk) 01:00, 4 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Your maps analogy fails because there is no content debate here. Consensus is quite clear, see: wikipedia:Talk:Axial_precession_(astronomy)#Cause. Nobody is trying to promote this image. I'm not blanking it "just because [I] don't like it" - I think it's quite well done, in fact, it's just wrong and I don't want anyone to get confused seeing it. Can you explain why DR participants will have any trouble evaluating the picture if it is blanked? [2] - it's pretty clear what is going on here. I don't understand your concern.

I have "fixed" it as you suggested, although of course it is quite ugly now; I don't have the skills or tools to do justice to this diagram. Hopefully we can leave it like this for now until the DR is complete. thank you, ErikHaugen (talk) 06:14, 4 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
