It looks like it would fit better on Big Dumb Object. (Probably better than the one already on that page.)

But yeah, unless our precursors were a species of floating slabs of rock, that thing doesn't demonstrate the trope.

{{ and }} don't have to be used in Image Pickin discussion titles like what you did.

In fact, it confuses the wiki itself thinking that the article we're talking about is literally {{Precursors}} .

Fixed for you.

It's a pretty picture, but doesn't say anything at all about the trope, or even hint at it unless you decide yourself what it hints at. I'm good with pulling.

I'm undecided on this one, but leaning ever so slightly toward pulling.

The images on Big Dumb Object and Precursors are basically the same. I am fine with pulling it on Precursors.

[up]Well, that sort of suggests a big statue from an older civilisation. Not a strong image, but if it had been the page image instead of the current one, I'd have said Keep Until Better Image Suggested.

[up] which is basically the same as a monolith. It's slightly better than no image, I suppose.

please don't capitalize my handle. I just don't like it.

I'm kinda neutral on the Prometheus pic.

[up][up]The monolith doesn't suggest anything about time, though. It's just there.

Yeah, I honestly don't think that the monolith helps much; we have no idea what it is unless you've seen the movie in question. Nothing in the image really implies it has anything to do with precursors.

Do we agree to take it off?

Do we agree to put it on Big Dumb Object?

Or should we crowner it?

I'm agreeing with myself to put the Prometheus pic on Precursors instead of the monolith. Not good, but an improvement, and better than no picture at all.
