There are multiple reasons for this, really:

  • The image at Glee was changed without discussion (from an image that had stood since the creation of the page),
  • ...to a duplicate image (a far too similar reproduction of the Season image for season 2 at Glee),
  • ...which is also a poor image, for the following reasons:
    • It is small, meaning that the characters are barely visible (especially in comparison to the original image)
    • Despite its small size, it is still very easy to tell that two of the characters in the image are being portrayed by obvious stand-ins, rather than the actors — this image should therefore not be used at all
    • There is a distracting line at the top of the image — yes, this could be removed by editing the image before or upon upload, but the troper did not do so when they re-uploaded the image the second time.

The troper, thereby, also initiated an Edit War (that I did not respond to). After I undid the edit, giving the reasons above when I did so, the troper that had changed the image without discussion in the first place changed it back to their edit (the version that stands now) without explanation. They did include an edit reason for changing the page quote — this is also a matter of contention as they had changed the page quote to what it is now one time previously, but it had been reverted then (I think by a mod, I'm not sure) as well.

My suggestion is to revert the page image and quote back to what it was originally (included below for reference), and to re-add the Stinger quote "--> ''[[Music/OneRepublic ...with every broken bone, I swear, I lived.]]''" (I believe that is it, but we can check in the edit history.)

If it gets a few more votes, permission to put the image up with a line note?

It's reverted and the page is tagged. Anything else?

EDIT: Holy crap, glad we got rid of another oversized pic.
