That's my memory as well. I remember spending a lot of time scouring Commons trying to find an image to depict Susun's apt description. "Three Friends" seemed not only to depict "a" woman, but it depicted "women" of more than one nationality, and I liked the colors. That said, if it's time for a new

Thanks for switching it back. I thought there was a fair amount of discussion about choosing the image initially. "Three Friends", by William H. Johnson isn't perfect for multiple reasons -Pam mentions one, it was painted by a man, etc.- but it is representative in other ways. That said, if anyone

Actually, I did it intentionally because it was a genericized image whereas the previous one, a painting, did not represent women globally, per WP:GLOBAL. Perhaps I should have simply gone with the female symbol? The image gets changed from time to time, and it was time for a change. If the other

The change was made before the template was protected, so quite possibly Kintetsbuffalo is not a Template Editor and cannot now revert that change. I agree that the replacement image is inappropriate (though I note that the nearly-inclusive "Three Friends" doesn't include any woman who hides her

I don't remember when the discussion took place, but I remember that it happened. A long discussion was had, various real women's photographs were tried. Ian, Dr. B. Rosie, Montana, and several others were involved. The image was changed multiple times until it was agreed to settle on this one.
903:
As I recall, we initially discussed using real photographs of women, but decided that because real women are judged harshly, by their appearance, ideological stances, etc. that it was better to use a representation of women than actual women. We specifically did not want a representation which

is was more broad in scope! Could you kindly revert your unilateral change and take your concerns to the projects and ASK them? The people on the project really do have a fair bit of input into the image used for their project banner, I would think.

It's customary for wikiProjects to have an importance rating. I agree with you to an extent though, there's a lot of blurry ground and subjective opinion in assessment at time. Eventually this will applied to all women articles. Somebody like

Yay! I love that we will have a template but I hate that it rates "importance". Either one is notable and should be included in an encyclopedia or one is not. Can we eliminate that rating?

limited or in any way indicated that we were interested in only a specific type of women, i.e. not soley westernized, not solely feminist, not classist, rather an inclusive image.

There was no need for a new image, the problem was someone unfamiliar with this template and its history making a unilateral change to something more stereotypical.

Could you give a link to the discussion, to help any Template Editor who feels they need more evidence before reverting the change? Thanks.

Actually, the image you have is a stereotypically westernized image (necklace, hairstyle, dress, etc.) and the previous one

Why doesn't this banner support article assessment? I get not supporting importance, but surely quality needs to be?
