== Pictures == |
|||
Hi, please be more careful when substituting pictures into articles. For a general article, such as [[Skirt]], a neutral photograph showing the subject as directly and straightforwardly as possible is preferable for the first image you see. The picture you substituted into [[Dress]] was already very similar to the prom picture beneath it. At present we are having a lot of single-track editors (or probably the same editor using various IDs/anonymous accounts) desperate to add pictures focusing on beautiful women, bare legs and exposed flesh into all the articles on skirts and dresses, which is becoming a little disruptive. I agree that the lead image to [[Dress]] could be better, but it should be a neutral, straightforward image showing a garment that is clearly a dress, preferably without any characteristics that might imply racial/cultural bias.

* Credit where due - I think your choice of picture for [[Miniskirt]] is very good. However, I was less convinced (and a bit confused) by your Microskirt substitution, so I reverted this and the other edit - the reasoning given was very strange. Skirt lengths have nothing to do with the height of the actual waistline - what matters is how high the hem goes. [[User:Mabalu|Mabalu]] ([[User talk:Mabalu|talk]]) 15:40, 25 November 2015 (UTC) |

::I disagree - there was nothing wrong with the existing miniskirt lede image, and it was a better example of a miniskirt, so I reverted. I also noted the irony that Shreyoshidasgupta seemed to take offence to the fact that the original image was a model posing, while glossing over or ignoring the fact that her replacement image was not one, but ''two'' models posing. |
|||
::However, as you say - credit where it's due - the image replacement for [[Little black dress]] is an excellent example. [[User:Chaheel Riens|Chaheel Riens]] ([[User talk:Chaheel Riens|talk]]) 09:07, 26 November 2015 (UTC) |

==Chill out with the photos== |
|||
Please stop trying to add the one photo of the porn actress to a bunch of different articles. Discuss on the talk page if you really think it's warranted. Trying to justify it with references to [[Iris Marion Young]] is [[WP:OR]], as well as confusingly implying that the photo is of Young. It isn't. Articles should be neutral. Calling mastectomy scars "disgusting pics of breast surgery" in an encyclopedic article is non-neutral and childish.
