Previous thread: [1]

I'd suggest we'd change it back the the "problematic image" as I feel the image adds to the joke that the Self-Demonstrating Article's demonstrating with (as apparently, Waluigi's trying to hijack the trope page), or and put the "problematic image" below the current image.

Afterall, there's an Waluigi image at the Stinger of the trope page as well that the others seemed to fail to notice back when this was discussed.

Who'd think to look down there? Well, I don't know... I mean both sides have a fair point so I'll see what others say to see if there's something I'm missing. Now though, I'm just thinking isn't it going to be kinda tall for essentially three images stacked at the side like that?

I like The Stinger. I think it's funny. Vote to keep.

I don't see any suggestion in this thread better than the current.

I'm suggesting either to replace the current top picture (showing the Brawl In The Family picture alongside the "Waluigi In The Family" one) with the picture that received complaints for being not illustrative in the previous thread or put it below the current one.

I'm not voting to change the image in the stinger, as that image, I think, was supposed to be a Brick Joke alongside both the previous page image and the part of the article that was Self Demonstrating.

The reason is because I think the image added to the joke (because it's in character for Waluigi to have said image there), and is one of a few times where dropping an image just because it's not illustrative might ruin the page a bit (particularly the joke that the article was going on about).

I'm giving a solid [tdown] to adding anything else to the pics that are there right now, and replacing the bottom half with the one that was pulled is at best a lateral move.

In the Mario Power tennis intro, there's a part where Waluigi & Wario crash a tennis match. There's a massive video screen that shows Mario/Luigi vs DK/Yoshi, but it's replaced with a confused looking Mario/Luigi vs. Wario/Waluigi. I'm not explaining it well, so here's a video (watch around 3:15): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YoZ_Mwc7lNE

Anyways, I figured someone could screengrab the board.

You can link to particular times in a You Tube video, just pause and right-click on it. Like: https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=YoZ_Mwc7lNE#t=200

I don't think that is better than the current, though.

[up]Me Too!.

What. I suggested the problematic image to be put back up on the page as it added to the joke.

I don't think the current image's bad for the page.

I also offered a second suggestion that the others apparently ignored: that image alongside the current. (Ie, have 3 images instead of one at the top and one in the stinger.)

[up] I didn't, I said it'd be too tall with essentially three images. The stinger isn't the issue as much as stacking an image which just repeats what's right next to it anyway.
