no your wrong, help me put the pictures in a better order. how do you edit the box with the pictures so that it comes out in the right order?

Don't bother, you've got about 5 more minutes before somebody comes along and reverses every change you have made ( that Ihave not already) . Thats the way it works sorry. Replacing other people's pictures with Barrack Obama's picture isn't something that will stay around for long - SimonLyall (talk) 06:16, 27 August 2008 (UTC)Reply

thats bs. this is my wikipedia too, i want to change the box so all six pictures line in a better order, if you cant help then learn to at least decent to the other editor. i am trying to figure out how to do it and i guess you dont know about it good enouph to help

Why don't you ask for help on Wikipedia talk:WikiProject African diaspora . And it's no BS. This is what you did to the Edward Broke article. Recognize the photo?. Oh and the answer to your question the photo is one big image so you have to create a new image and change the template to point to that. - SimonLyall (talk) 06:25, 27 August 2008 (UTC)Reply

yea i know but i am trying to do that. anyway thx for answering my question? Awdacityofluv (talk) 06:31, 27 August 2008 (UTC)Reply

yea I was trying to move the   one into box 1 and the File:WEB DuBois.jpg one into box 3 so the   one can be in box 1 since he is more in the news now. Awdacityofluv (talk) 06:30, 27 August 2008 (UTC)Reply

Template:African American ethnicity edit

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. We've been discussing the images in the template at Talk:African American#Intro montage. Please join the discussion there.

I have to warn you, though, that Obama isn't likely to be added to the infobox during the presidential campaign. Most editors agree that putting his picture in such a prominent position would make it appear like Wikipedia was endorsing his candidacy.

In any case, please join the discussion. Thank you. — Malik Shabazz (talk · contribs) 19:41, 27 August 2008 (UTC)Reply
