Jayjg. What's an ambigous image doing as the lead image for [[new
anti-Semitism]] anyways?
Um, the whole article is about the disputed and possibly ambiguous
nature of New anti-Semitism. It could hardly illustrate the concept
better, as has been explained multiple times by multiple editors.
Wikipedia's doing a disservice to it's readers
when
doing this, particularly when the caption of the image doesn't spell out
what it's source is saying about it.
No, the continual attempts to suppress or reframe this powerful and
illustrative image, without any backing in policy, is what does a
disservice to Wikipedia.
As others have expressed with an image
like that as the lead Wikipedia is expressing the POV that it is an example
of "new anti-Semitism".
What do you mean by "New anti-Semitism"? A new kind of Anti-Semitism?
Modern anti-Semitism? Or an attempt to reframe criticism of Israel as
anti-Semitism? Because arguments are made for all these definitions.
Oh, wait, the picture perfectly illustrates that.
If the image stays then editros should at least
ensure that the image's caption is in accord with NPOV
Sorry, again, could you cite the specific words of NPOV that apply to
this image?
Of course not. Because your objection has nothing to do with *actual* policy.
Jay.
