per physical appearance In regards to your question about adding more pictures one of the main concerns of editors on the MJ page is that the pictures are cluttering up the text and making it more difficult to read I would have to agree with this concern as nice as pictures are wikipedia is about information and this is conveyed through text and to the point pictures I think that putting pictures documenting the change in Michael s appearance would draw undue attention to that facet of his life Sure a few pictures are good but these show him in some important light whether in a record breaking video or on the cover of one of his record breaking albums or during a popular performance That leads me on to your other query about using images from live recent events The only problem there is that IMO the picture quality decreases and that brings recentism to the article Basically it s focussing too much on the present whereas wikipedia is meant to equally document MJ s entire life Finally regards the 80s picture I was actually against it a while back and tried to replace it with a then recent picture of his acceptance of a Legend Award in Japan I didn t manage this successfully but then I realized that the current picture is probably the best one to be there It is the perfect representation of MJ in the prime of his career epitomizing the success that he was and IMO still is To put a 2007 picture would bring recentism to the article and most editors don t like that Anyway I hope that I ve answered some of the queries you have If you need to know anything else just contact me on my talk page Thanks
