Image for Act V
I'm really uncomfortable with the idea that we're going to spoil the ending of the opera with a big image stating the ending explicitly right near the start of the plot summary. Since this is rarely performed and probably not translated, our summary is likely to be the first introduction someone has to the plot, and we're ruining it for them by misplacing images.

 * Adam. First of all, we have never worried about "spoilers" in opera plots. People who read this article about a very obscure French opera, are not doing so to read a ripping yarn, and it's a pretty far stretch to say it "ruins" their experience. Secondly, it depends on what size your computer screen is. I assume you have a fairly large one? On smaller screens, the image is much lower down. I always check the article on both types of screen when I decide where to place the images. Where you had put it, it ended up in the References section on smaller screens and thus didn't illustrate anything within the synopsis. This is a compromise that keeps the image in the synopsis section for as wide an audience as possible. In any case, the synopsis is only "bare bones" at the moment. I am planning to expand it considerably over the next two days. At that point, there will be plenty of room and I'll move the image lower down. Voceditenore (talk) 05:47, 24 July 2015 (UTC)
