Voting aye.

Robkelk (talkcontribs)

Sure, why not?

Looney Toons (talkcontribs)

Not what I had in mind when first thinking on the topic, but yes, it works.

Kuma (talkcontribs)

Works for me, so I vote for the image.

Summary by Robkelk

The suggested image would work as a userbox image, but not as a page image.

Robkelk (talkcontribs)

I was thinking that Wikimedia Commons' icon for the Olympic sport of Archery might make an acceptable page image... until I actually saw it. Now I'm thinking I want opinions before adding it to the page.

Should we or shouldn't we? (If we don't, then the page stays as-is, without an image unless somebody else suggests one.)

I think we should have something a bit more detailed. That's a good image for a lot of purposes, but it loses something at the size a page image needs to be.

HeneryVII (talkcontribs)

I'm with Toons, that seems a little dull.

GethN7 (talkcontribs)

It would be good for a userbox, but agree, not ideal for a full page image.

Jlaw (talkcontribs)

Yeah no. Doesn't speak archery to me.

Robkelk (talkcontribs)

I think it's unanimous.

The page could still use an image... just not this one.

Umbire the Phantom (talkcontribs)

Yeah, I'm not immediately sure what could work for this, but given a while...

Agiletek (talkcontribs)

I'm sure Wikimedia Commons has a CC or PD image of medieval enactment featuring bow use.

Edit: More now PD illustrations were there than expected. I like this one.

Ilikecomputers (talkcontribs)

I also quite like this and I'm voting that we use this instead. I don't really like any of the images I found while searching "archery" on wikimedia commons.

Robkelk (talkcontribs)

I was about to lock this thread... @ Agiletek, could you start a new one suggesting we use that image, please?

GentlemensDame883 (talkcontribs)

Sorry, having a busy week so I couldn't get to this earlier.

Not in favour of the pictogram, open to Agiletek's suggestion.
