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.
