Image needs to be more representative[edit]

Couldn't we have at least one woman? Slac speak up! 10:46, 19 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The collage as it stands represents the 18th an 19th centuries. It would be nice to have some women but we need images that are in the public domain or released under a free license such as Creative Commons or GFDL. Arniep 12:49, 19 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I agree with User:Lacrimosus, this picture needs at-least one Woman, and I think it also needs at-least one living person to be representative. Also perhaps it could have a picture of a historical person from before English Dominance, someone like Brian Boru (though his picture is not a very good one). (Also, almost every person in the image is Anglo-Irish, which is not very representative of Irish people). --Hibernian 17:32, 4 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I agree with both the need for some women and lack of people from outside the 18th and 19th centuries. The Anglican slant is odd, where are the Roman Catholics or even Presbyterians? I'm quite sure there is no shortage of Roman Catholics who could appear in the collage. On the Presbyterian side you could have a Nobel Peace Prize winner David Trimble and/or United Irishman Henry Joy McCracken. Anyways, that's my two cents.  Keithology  Talk!  23:12, 30 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It needs women, and it needs to represent a greater swath of time, not just the 18th and 19th C. Kevlar67 14:14, 31 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
