Regarding Aerial View of Clarawood

Google Earth very clearly allows under its copyright rules for fair use of its images including on the internet. I have therefore re-added the image to the commons and on the Clarawood page

Wikimedia Commons, where the file was located, does not allow merely fair use images. Anything there must be free for use elsewhere, including commerical redistribution. See Commons' fair use policy. - HyperGaruda (talk) 16:54, 13 March 2016 (UTC)

Point taken on the fair use policy, I am new to this as you will appreciateClarawood123 (talk) 22:52, 13 March 2016 (UTC)

Image size and so on

@Clarawood123: Please read WP:IMGSIZE. Thumbed images are preferred over fixed-width images. Note especially "Except with very good reason, do not use px (e.g. 300px), which forces a fixed image width. Where px is used, the resulting image should usually be no more than 500 pixels tall and no more than 400 pixels wide, for comfortable display on the smallest devices "in common use" (though this may still cause viewing difficulties on some unusual displays)." The image resolutions that you have reinstated are too big; while you may be connected to high-speed internet, there are parts of the world where it still might take ages to download a Misplaced Pages page and large images are certainly not helping. Additionally, you have removed the WP:Original research tag without solving the problems. Until they have been solved, the tag should remain in place. - HyperGaruda (talk) 12:06, 13 March 2016 (UTC)

You clearly haven't understood the original research page you direct me to as it very clearly says that while information must be attributable it does not have to actually be attributed in the article. I can assure you that all information on the Clarawood Misplaced Pages page is attributable. As you are clearly not well informed enough on the subject of Clarawood to know this my recommendation for you would be to stick to editing pages on subjects you actually know about and are able to make informed decisions about.

Whilst there may be parts of the world where the bandwidth etc causes delays with large pictures, the vast majority of people viewing the Clarawood page will be high speed broadband users mainly from Clarawood itself. That is why I have reversed your edits.

PS you describe yourself as a Grammar Nazi, I found the English grammar on your page not quite perfect, also if you are a linguistics expert you will know that Sanskrit actually emanates from Europe in the first place not Asia

First of all, I'd like you to read the Talk page guidelines, in particular the section about "Layout". Secondly, you do not own this page; anyone is allowed to edit it. My contributions are focussed more on the Wikipedian "looks" of the page, rather than contents. Finally, you are disregarding mobile users who have tiny screens, no broadband, and might have to pay a lot, depending on their provider. PS, your PS is an example of a personal attack and is just uncalled for. - HyperGaruda (talk) 17:21, 13 March 2016 (UTC)

My understanding of the image policies on Misplaced Pages are that large images are ok in the context of the article. I'm sorry you felt that I had made a personal attack on you, this was not the intention, my comment was designed to give constructive criticism on your contentClarawood123 (talk) 22:52, 13 March 2016 (UTC)
