Talk:Chitauri

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.

Huh. I don't think I agree with the practice, but I'd be interested to see what other people think. It's only one step away from using a subtitled screencap from a TV episode. Jack ☎ 20:20, 18 October 2024 (UTC)

Yeah, I have to agree with Jack here. The deviation from common practice makes it confusing (for example at first glance here, I thought star lord was a Chitauri). Danochy ☎ 21:08, 18 October 2024 (UTC)

Yeah, that's what I thought until I compared the image to the one in the Behind the Scenes section. Jack ☎ 21:10, 18 October 2024 (UTC)

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

The image is so long that I didn't see it. Jack ☎ 21:27, 18 October 2024 (UTC)
