Infobox
Is it worth having the infobox image if it, a) doesn't depict the article's subject and, b) is longer than the article itself? Jack ☎ 20:09, 18 October 2024 (UTC)
- I've been using infobox images of elements being mentioned, with an explanatory caption, on a fair few articles (e.g. Wile E. Coyote), so I do personally think they're more helpful than not having them. As for the image's height, that's just because the panel it's from is vertical, although it probably could be cropped a bit shorter, since Rocket's not overly important to the image.

- The caption's right there... Cookieboy 2005 ☎ 21:24, 18 October 2024 (UTC)
