Vandalism on this page? edit

Have a look at the text accompanying this image. It looks like either vandalism or perhaps more charitably a mistranslation. 58.166.86.155 (talk) 23:35, 12 December 2012 (UTC)Reply

Very nice catch, I have reverted the vandalism. — ξxplicit 05:27, 13 December 2012 (UTC)Reply

Actual size? edit

As far as I now the size of an image in dpi is for printing only. The size of an image in a computer screen depends on the screen resolution. Even if the size is just an approximation, I dont think it is any accurate. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 189.13.135.168 (talk) 04:46, 27 November 2013 (UTC)Reply

I agree. It would be better to have a picture without that statement. The "actual size" illustrated in the picture is unlikely to be shown at the intended size on most displays. Moreover, the picture is shown at a different size when it is included in articles. Do we even know what is the size at which the image is intended to be shown? (e.g., dpi or total image width and height) —BarrelProof (talk) 20:37, 7 December 2013 (UTC)Reply
