[edit] Lead image

Georgelazenby (talk · contribs), please don't take offence at my having moved your image and supplied and inserted a lead image that is significantly more illustrative. Your image shows a whole cake — a very pretty one, to be sure, certainly worthy of inclusion in the article — but we know it's a cake under the frosting only because the caption says so. Because the cake in my image has a slice out of it, we can see the exterior and the interior. We can actually see the cake part of the cake in my image, and that makes it a better selection for the article's lead image. That doesn't mean my image is objectively better or yours is objectively worse, just that mine's more appropriate as a lead image. Please keep in mind that it's neither coöperative nor appropriate to reinsert your own image just to have your image at the top of an article. Let's all work together to make this article the best we can, eh? —Scheinwerfermann (talk) 04:17, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
