French Wikipedia

I can see that currently French wikipedia is using this image. I wonder, could it be useful for other language/regions? Tyciol (talk) 07:55, 18 November 2009 (UTC)

Why wouldn't it be useful for other languages?? --TwoWings * to talk or not to talk... 06:27, 20 November 2009 (UTC)

• I see your point, "black" people live in most (all?) countries after all. I know the policy is not to change image names, but I find this one a bit offensive. Labeling people black or white based on skin colour seems like an embellished false dichotomy. I've yet to see anybody literally these pure shades. Wouldn't something like pale/dark or more comparatively adjective: paler/darker, be a little more realistic? I prefer pale to 'light' even if it is also an antonym to dark simply because we use light as a term in physics. TY© (talk) 15:33, 7 July 2010 (UTC)

You make a joke? The title is from reputable artist Peter Klashorst himself, as far as I know. This cannot be changed without destructing the artist's approach. If you don't like it, don't use it. Ah, I see, all those Klashorst images are deleted at flickr and can't be checked again - we have to trust FlickreviewR bot, which confirmed all is ok -- smial (talk) 17:22, 7 July 2010 (UTC)

I have rarely seen such a stupid talk. Why would it be offensive to say a person is black (and therefore her body parts too) ?!!! Is it an insult to be black ? It would be hypocrit to label this picture as "dark genitalia" or "dark skin genitalia". Dark is not an equivalent of black. There's some kind of paranoia in that. And by the way, I don't see the connection between TY©'s message and Tyciol's message so what "I see your point" means ??! --TwoWings * to talk or not to talk... 20:29, 7 July 2010 (UTC)

No to "African American" categories

As Leyo said it well, we cannot say this file pictures an Afro-American woman. Actually it is more probable that she's African and not American since the photographer, Peter Klashorst, lives and/or works in Africa, Europe and Asia but, to my knowledge, not in America. --TwoWings * to talk or not to talk... 10:55, 31 August 2013 (UTC)

Sorry, i got it wrong as i was thinking in african women (as in women of dark skin) instead of the Afro-American woman (women with dark skin that is from the USA. So this should be in Category:Females with black skin? Tm (talk) 13:52, 31 August 2013 (UTC)

Wow... I remember those "skin by colour" categories had once been deleted ! (especially because there was some kind of discrimination or possible discrimination, at least if "white skin" cats don't exist...)

But yeah, as long as they exist, it could be in those cats (and it would actually been better in a subcat "Nude women with black skin" yet to create...). --TwoWings * to talk or not to talk... 14:54, 31 August 2013 (UTC)
