::::::::Great. Although I wouldn't trouble myself with looking for new images. We prefer minimal images in pages. A single image can be great. We can use it in our main random image+article template. Two is sometimes necessary. Any more than that (unless it's scientific diagrams) IMO is overkill.[[User:Sahabah|--Sahabah]] ([[User talk:Sahabah|talk]]) 19:42, 15 April 2013 (PDT) | ::::::::Great.

:::::::::1234567, about the images, they do make the article visually interesting but sometimes they're not related so some images may not need to be included. Do you have anything to say in defense of them, of why you'd like to include them? In any case we're focusing on the factual statements so if they're not included its ok in my opinion. Maybe they can be included at the end when all the articles have been written. What do you think? --[[User:Axius|Axius]] ([[User talk:Axius|talk]]) 04:53, 16 April 2013 (PDT) | :::::::::1234567, about the images, they do make the article visually interesting but sometimes they're not related so some images may not need to be included.

::::::::::I don't feel strongly if you'd prefer not to have them. But in my experience, people are more likely to read an article that has pictures. I have a lurking suspicion that this article is not very interesting. On one hand, it's a list of facts and figures, which is difficult to read. On the other hand, it is impossible to endorse the conclusion unless one has made the effort to do the reading. That is why, despite the ready availability of the information, nobody has ever before published anything similar. So pictures might draw the audience in. But it's not as if I painted them myself. So it doesn't bother me personally if you leave them out. | |||
::::::::::I think I've filled in all the references now, so I will resist the temptation to make any more changes.[[User:1234567|1234567]] ([[User talk:1234567|talk]]) 05:02, 16 April 2013 (PDT) | |||
