The article features the inclusion of a miniature Lego model of the stadium that needn't be included in the article. It adds nothing, and simply appears to be an image of a hobbyists model of the stadium. The image is also described as a "scale" model, which I would dispute as it is not an accurate, proportional replica of the stadium, it's simply a mini-Lego model. Further, the image description mentions a model-maker who doesn't appear to of particular prominence, and is, at the least, without a Wikipedia page of their own. 92.233.97.202 (talk) 22:26, 20 October 2023 (UTC)Reply
Thank you for pointing out the issue with this image. Someone overwrote the original photo (which was admittedly blurry) with one of an entirely different model. I've restored the original image. The model is definitely not made of Lego, and it was put on display at the Manchester United museum, so there's no reason to remove the image from this article. The notability of the artist is irrelevant to the encyclopaedic value of the image. – PeeJay09:21, 25 October 2023 (UTC)Reply
I see.
Does a featured Wikipedia article really deserve a blurry picture?
To be fair, Wikipedia relies on volunteers for all of its content. If this is the best picture of the model we can get, it will have to do, especially since I don't think the model is on display any more. That said, at the size the image is displayed at, the blurriness is barely noticeable. I will also add that I do think it's worth including, since the model itself is mentioned in the article. If you read, you'll see it was put on display for the 100th anniversary of Old Trafford's opening, and it's probably the best example of that special exhibition to put in this article. – PeeJay00:12, 26 October 2023 (UTC)Reply
