Removal of bunnies

[edit]

Hi User:ChubbyWimbus I see you removed a photo I added with a person in it. I'm curious to why. Most people who visit here go for a close experience with the rabbits and I think this is an important illustration for the article as it paints a reason many people want to travel here and stresses how many rabbits there are here. If this one is not applicable I also have pictures of small children feeding the rabbits.

Can you elaborate on why you removed this? Is there a policy or a concern you have about this? Thanks in advance! Jdlrobson (talk) 17:31, 7 December 2016 (UTC) Jdlrobson (talk) 17:31, 7 December 2016 (UTC)Reply

I think the photo is OK, but I'm guessing he may have had concerns about Wikivoyage:Image policy#People in photos:
"Don't upload photos of yourself posing in front of stuff. You do look cute, but photos of yourself don't really belong in a travel guide."
Interpreting this as requiring removal of that photo is quite legitimate, wouldn't you say? I should add that I have a very different issue with the thumbnails in this article, namely that they are placed too far down in the article and actually extend beyond its end on my browser. I'll move the second one up, but please be aware of this issue. Ikan Kekek (talk) 20:18, 7 December 2016 (UTC)Reply
I've tried a second one, which I interpret as meeting that policy. Thanks for the link. I tend to edit on mobile most of the time - so it's hard for me to tell how they display on desktop! Thanks for the rearrange! Jdlrobson (talk) 02:37, 8 December 2016 (UTC)Reply
You bet. And I like the new photo. Ikan Kekek (talk) 04:48, 8 December 2016 (UTC)Reply
Yes, that is the policy I was referencing. I did not mean to discourage you in any way from building the article! I should have found and linked the policy myself. Thank's Ikan Kekek I've been to Okunoshima. It's an interesting place. ChubbyWimbus (talk) 11:38, 8 December 2016 (UTC)Reply

Wording question

[edit]

It sounds like there is something wrong in this sentence: "They like lettuce and carrots and will jump on top of you cover yourself with food.". Do you understand what the author meant? Maybe "They will avidly come to you, and you should cover your food". — Fabimaru (talk) 17:11, 8 July 2017 (UTC)Reply
