Does Not Illustrate: Just A Face And A Caption

The preceding comments have indicated that. What about, specifically?

I am almost inclined to use the page image on Streisand Effect to explain "not actually JAFAAC"

I think "Not actually JAFAAC" is best illustrated by a picture of a face. Adding "something other than a face and a caption can be Just A Face And A Caption, but this one isn't" at the same time is too complicated.

Also I think that image is kind of JAFAAC :) That is not a good precedent.

I was thinking of adding the most subtle example possible here.

I'm more inclined to go with the Simba picture, because it clearly illustrates the point that sometimes a Face and a caption is not Just A Face And A Caption.

"Most subtle possible" is not a good idea I don't think.

Eh, I'd be fine with switching it out for the Simba pic.

In the mean time, could you change the hottip in the caption for that picture to a labelnote?

It's starting to look like the Simba pic will be swapped in, and the caption that goes with it won't have a note at all, so I think we can hold off on that change.

Fine. Just kinda... , that's all.

One or two more votes for the Simba pic and we can run with it, hopefully past the wildebeests.

And send this thread into an Elephant Graveyard?

Something like that.

The Simba pic is good.

I'd been meaning to vote for the Simba pic for a while now.

Here's my vote.

Since I voted, I saved Mufasa, right?

Nope, he's still smushed.

Heh...that actually reminds me of a joke I came up with:
"MUFASA! MUFASA!"
"I can't mufasa, I'm going full speed already! AAAAAAAH!" *crunch*

If the text in the list doesn't need any tweaks to go with the new pic, then I'd say we're good to lock up. Thoughts?

It does need a tweak. There are two bullet points that have the same issue: they describe a different problem:

1. If it has a caption, the caption pulls all of the weight of demonstrating the trope.
2. A Speech Balloon or other form of text-in-the-image won't save you here—if there's nothing in the visuals, it's JAFAAC.

...should be...

1. The image doesn't have to show a face, and doesn't have to have a caption. If understanding it requires familiarity or explanation from someone who is familiar with the work, it's JAFAAC.
2. A caption may be inside the image or even disguised as something else, like a Speech Balloon.

Sounds reasonable; any objections to that?

I'm fine with this change.

Definitely an improvement.

Done; locking up.
