Portraits of people
editThis article has long had editorial disagreement about which pictures of which people should be included. I have been bold (OK, maybe too bold) and removed them all, since there's no objective measure of why one person-over-100 should be shown and another one shouldn't. Thoughts? - DavidWBrooks (talk) 19:26, 22 June 2018 (UTC)
- Support: I suspect most have an idea what a centenarian looks like. I agree with the removal of all images. Jim1138 (talk) 21:59, 22 June 2018 (UTC)

main image looks bad
editcan barely see it on a normal laptop screen. and it's mostly a photo of empty space, with some pictures of old people in the distance at an angle from the camera anyway. any better pictures? I'm just going to remove the image. JM (talk) 22:48, 2 January 2024 (UTC)
