Spinning off from the Suggestion thread. Original take by ~Drope.

Apparently the text here is...not the actual text (not sure what's up with that). Here is the actual page.

Options:

  • Use the full, uncropped version even if it's not the actual text?
  • Use the actual page?
  • Use only the image, put under This Image Is Not an Example?

Other ideas?

Wouldn't there be the same issues as from using uncredited fanart, since we don't know who made the edited image?

Crop the text and use the first two sentences of the last paragraph as the caption.

I agree with Fernando, assuming he means the original version.

The...original...book, or the original image suggestion?

And would the text be the (what I presume is) the jokey first take, or the one in the actual children's book?

I thought it meant the original text in the book.

The full text (Shrek No-Sell-ing a lightning bolt) might distract from the trope (eating lightning). Vote to crop and add the relevant text as a caption.

"Lightning fired his fiercest bolt..." Should've typed the sentence in my previous post to make my point clearer.

The leading option's at super-consensus, so I'm calling it. I'm not where I can do the surgery.
