- Question Astounding. But I thought text in images were frowned upon on Commons? – Kerαunoςcopia◁galaxies 06:44, 11 March 2013 (UTC)
- Long story short, only if you add the text yourself, or if it's not an inherent part of the image. As the text is an inherent part of the photogravure, it'd be fairly misleading to remove it. Adam Cuerden (talk) 12:12, 11 March 2013 (UTC)

In reply to above, I'm inclined to disagree, as we're discussing at en-fp, but for Commons,I think this image works perfectly as a documented image and you did a great job bringing those colors to something more akin to real life.I still think a textless version should be used in articles, though.– Kerαunoςcopia◁galaxies 20:59, 11 March 2013 (UTC)- Comment IMO, text is not a "text", but part of the original picture ( see Hector Berlioz below ). I agree with Adam Cuerden, and en-fp cannot be a reference here, with all due respect. Everybody is free to crop, or to clone out, the letters.--Jebulon (talk) 21:23, 11 March 2013 (UTC)
- Ok sorry about that, striked out en-fp-related comments. – Kerαunoςcopia◁galaxies 21:50, 11 March 2013 (UTC)
