  • KEEP! The bigger pictures uploaded at the Commons are not so neat as the smaller pictures here on Wikipedia. Bigger is not better in this case. If the bigger pictures are desired to be retained at the Commons for any purpose, then they may be, else they can be deleted. If these pictures may be more useful at the Commons, then they should be moved there. But they should not be deleted. --Jamadagni 2005-05-20 09:32 UTC
  • keep If the reader of an constellation article follows the advice "click to enlarge", it would be bad to show him these sub-optimal bitmaps of Wikipedia Commons. Sub-optimal for two reasons: They are unnecessarily big, and they've been produced with smoothing off. The maps are not very rich in detail anyway (for good reason), so it's pointless do make them bigger as they are now. Besides, star maps are language-dependent. – Torsten Bronger 14:55, 20 May 2005 (UTC)

[edit] The Wizard?

The caption says Sagittarius, the Wizard. Sagittarius is Latin for Archer, is it not?

By the way, all the constellation maps are upside-down compared to what I see in the sky. (From where I live in the Southern Hemisphere!). Iramoo Bearbrass 10:29, 18 October 2006 (UTC)
