Question Doesn't "locomotive system" include the muscles? Seems to be mis-titled. —Pengo 22:34, 10 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Weak support. This is another good diagram by WikipedianProlific, but it's in PNG. --Tewy 22:48, 10 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. Alas, only photographs and svgs are passing these days… This might be hard to vectorize because of the shadow and texture of the bones can be rather irregular.--Here T oHelp 03:57, 11 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
...and there are possible spelling errors, so right now it's more of a conditional weak support. --Tewy 19:22, 15 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Support. Not my favourite diagram but proud of it none the less, it's as good as any FP wikipedia has, and better than most imho. I'm not going to get into a lengthy discussion about the pro's and cons of SVGs and JPEGs. But the reality of the situation is that this image is 2000 pixels square thereabouts and no PC monitor looking at wikipedia can display even near that. It can be printed on A3 paper at around 200 DPI, it's really not an issue. Its one thing to request new diagrams be done in SVG, or painfully small ones, but theres no point wasting time that could be spent making new diagrams on tracing old ones into a new format with no real benefits. And no, locomotive system doesn't refer to muscles. Muscles are, interestingly, part of the muscular system. And even if muscles were part of the locomotive system, i'm bemused as to a good way to show both the bones and muscles as one would cover the other.

- I think the main argument for SVG is because someday somewhere someone might have an application off of the computer screen. I'd have loved to bring your horse to science fair on a glossy 4 foot wide piece of paper. I think simpler ones should be SVG, but the shading on this would make that rather difficult. That's why I thought SVG was supposed to be better than large monitor filling PNG gren グレン 20:06, 11 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose I believe there are four spelling mistakes - tuber ischm should be tuber ischium, tubuar sacrale should be tuber sacrale, humerous should be humerus and coccygeal vetebrae should be coccygeal vertebrae Can someone confirm if I'm right? - Adrian Pingstone 17:42, 11 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Sorry to bring about a PNG/SVG argument, but SVG would be able to easily correct this. --Tewy 00:37, 12 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Support if it's factually correct. Very nice looking and if someone with the ability and time wants it could use a nice image map. gren グレン 20:08, 11 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Support Just get rid of pink backgroundPenubag 02:39, 12 March 2007 (UTC)penubag[reply]
- Pink? Try a different monitor; it looks very light brown to me. --Tewy 02:51, 12 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  - Well okay salmon colored XD Penubag 06:05, 12 March 2007 (UTC)penubag[reply]
Support if the spelling is checked/fixed. I'd also prefer a white background. Otherwise I think this is a very good illustration. --KFP (talk | contribs) 22:08, 13 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment I'm a little surprised to see support for an image that (at the time of my writing this) still has four spelling errors. A count of Support at this moment might make it a Featured Pic!! - Adrian Pingstone 16:44, 15 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  - That's what user talk pages are for. ~ trialsanderrors 08:22, 16 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    - Why would I put my comment on the uploaders Talk Page? I'm commenting on the FP image and we do that discussion right here - Adrian Pingstone 08:29, 16 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
      - I'm sure if you point the mistakes out to him, he'll fix them. ~ trialsanderrors 08:35, 16 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Image has now been updated with a white background and fixed spelling. WikipedianProlific^(Talk) 02:41, 18 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- (Purge the cache to see the change). --Tewy 03:45, 18 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Support Looks like all the conditionas for the conditional supports above are met. ~ trialsanderrors 19:09, 23 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
