Caption on 2010-06-25 (Wright brothers' first flight)

The time of day is given, but not the date. This seems very strange to me. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.235.203.192 (talk • contribs) 07:36, 5 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

second time?

This picture has already been elected in July--David1010 07:35, 13 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Yes - well spotted. We need a replacement now. Rd232 (talk) 11:08, 13 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Period at the end of captions

Hi, I've been asking myself why do the captions here have the period at the end. Is this a convention here? Per en:Wikipedia:Captions#Wording, there should be no period at the end except in the case of full sentences, because the majority of captions are not grammatically complete sentences, but noun phrases. --Eleassar (t/p) 14:42, 5 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

A length of caption

There was a dispute about a length of caption in Template:Potd/2013-02-11 (en). In my opinion, because the English description is used in commons and some Wikipedias, it is better to be short (For more reasons and discussions see User talk:Gidip#Too much info). What do you think about this? Should we really have to made a guideline for this? --관인생략 (talk) 11:28, 10 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Beppe Grillo image of the day ????

I do not know who roposed and who choosed Beooe Grillo as "image of the day" March 14th, but it is a very strange and inappriate idea. --Arrakis (talk) 08:09, 14 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Why not? This is a featured picture, like many others, and it can be assigned to the "picture of the day" like any other featured picture. --Kaganer (talk) 08:34, 14 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Wrong county

Could someone please correct the caption on the picture of the day April 2nd? Måbødalen and Eidsfjord are located in Hordaland, not Sogn og Fjordane. - 4ing (talk) 07:19, 2 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]


Please help us develop consensus on an Infobox photo

Could available editors please give their opinion on which of [en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Rick_Remender#Infobox_Photo_Discussion these photos] would make a better Infobox pic for the Rick Remender article? Thanks. Nightscream (talk) 13:12, 1 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
