message: This could have been a good candidate, but [Cultural Revolution] carries {cleanup} and [DaZiBao] is a stub.

thread_title:  Towel Day 

message: I suggest changing the image for :File:Revolución de Mayo.jpg. Being a bicentennial, it's clearly more notable (at least this year) than the one used. MBelgrano (talk) 20:22, 24 April 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: It's hard to tell exactly what is going on there when the image is displayed on a thumbnail scale on high-resolution, wide-screen monitors. Otherwise, it looks like a non-descriptive building. Do you have a suggestion as to what to add to the normal (pictured) caption in the text? Zzyzx11 (talk) 20:40, 24 April 2010 (UTC)

text: It's a great idea, since its 200 years from the May Revolution, the most important national festivity on Argentina (through not independence per sé), and its comparable to the 4 or July in the United States. However, I believe that in thumbnail size a picture of the Cabildo Abierto, through less descriptive as Zzyzx11, would be better for this template.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 186.136.46.59 (talk) 23:13, 22 May 2010 (UTC)
