That said, changed the picture without any discussion, only because some people don't want to see a half-naked anime girl on Main Page (btw: What is the problem with that picture? I'm a girl, and i'm not AT ALL offended for see that in main page) was a act that NO ONE should do without consensus. Not an adm, not an editor, not a staff.

And do that by abusing the tools WMF and the communitty gave you only made everything even worse.

That said, i restored the original image of the day and would love if you people decide if the picture should stay or not in main page ON COMMONS

I still don't understand what that image that you restored is doing on the main page of

Commons. If I record an original, unpublished post-punk song with my completely non-

notable garage band, will you feature that too on the main page, as an educational example

of post-punk? If not, how is that image different?

Does Commons now provide free advertising for up-and-coming artists eager to make

a name for themselves?
