I don't understand what this 'clean-up' message means. Nissania 16:40, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

Do you mean you don't get the concept of cleanup, or you haven't managed to find the explanatory message for this particular case?
Indeed, the person who tagged it appears to have left no explanation other than in the edit summary. But I'm inclined to agree:
  • it's poorly formatted and structured
  • it reads as more of a rules leaflet than an encyclopedia article
  • the images are too big
  • the second image is poor quality
  • there's no obvious explanation of what the figures in the second image mean.

No, I understand what 'clean-up' means I just didn't see what was wrong with it. Thanks! Is there any way to resize the image on wiki? I don't have an image editor. Nissania 22:29, 19 June 2007 (UTC)nissania

Yes, it can be done. For example: [[:Image:bendomino.jpg|300px]] will resize the image to be 300 pixels wide. You may want to check out Wikipedia:Extended image syntax. -- Smjg 01:08, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

300px

[edit] What do the pieces consist of?

The beginning of the rules section states that there are 28 pieces, the same as in regular dominoes. However, the picture shows two 5-3 pieces, so on this basis some pairs must be absent from this set. Can anybody enlighten on which pairs are duplicated/missing? -- Smjg 19:14, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Artistic License

I think the photographer combined two sets to get the curve just the way they like it. In the game there would be only one. Nissania 20:56, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

Only think? We could do with somebody who's experienced the game first-hand to confirm it. If there really is only one of each piece, then AISI it isn't licence, it's misrepresentation. -- Smjg 21:14, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

OK, it's misrepresentation. There is definitely only one in the game. AISI? Nissania 21:56, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

AISI = As I see it. -- Smjg 00:02, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
