  • Oppose. Scale description should be in caption, not on image. Is isn't readable at thumbnail size. Also, putting it in the caption is the modern convention for most scientific publications. (And it allows for better localization.) Kaldari (talk) 23:01, 8 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    • There are a lot of featured pictures with scales. If you feel there is an issue with that, fair enough, but opposing individual FPCs is not the way to go about it. J Milburn (talk) 23:37, 8 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
