Hi, please see the talk page for a discussion on if we should keep the images on the article Rorschach inkblot test and seek consensus to remove the images before removing them. 1 !=  2  20:40, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

Rorschach
You're fighting a losing battle trying to remove the Rorschach image. I'm a psychologist and fought it tooth and nail for almost two years. Read the talk page and its archives for details of the debates. The images are no longer copyrighted, as the copyright expired 70 years after H. Rorschach created them. The test on the cards has a trademark by the publisher, but that does not protect the images. Wikipedia does not have to follow professional ethics guidelines. The blot images have no legal protection.

At one time we had a compromise to include the image only if the reader clicked, and there was a warning that it could invalidate the test. It stayed that way for some time until someone (much like you did) decided to remove it and started the battle all over again. Now it appears to be there to stay.

Also note that if you continue reverting it, you can be blocked from editing.

Your intentions may be in the right place, but you'll only make things worse (such as all ten images being displayed) if you continue removing the image. I've told that to other well-intentioned editors who didn't believe me. That's how we lost the click-to-see compromise. Ward3001 (talk) 20:51, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
