List of images in Gray's Anatomy: I. Embryology

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

This AfD is representative for all lists at Category:Gray's Anatomy-related lists.

Systematic organisation of the available resources of commons: should be done there, perhaps by subdividing commons:Category:Gray's Anatomy plates. And thousands of external links to a site with popup ads aren't needed at all.

 * Delete or move This is the wrong place for that kind of work. Which may be valuable, I guess, but it's not for an encyclopedia.  FrozenPurpleCube 13:36, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep or move. I'm the person who created the page, and I'm the person who uploaded more than half of the 1247 Gray's images into the commons. It is very important to be able to see the original caption, and the context in which the images originally appeared. --Arcadian 13:53, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
 * I'm surely not wanting to destroy valuable information, but it should be alongside the actual images at Commons.
 * What I'm not clear about are the links to bartleby.com -- is there something lost when we delete them?

 * Keep, move or transwiki - This can 100% be appropriate for one Wikimedia project at least, not to say that it doesn't need improving. This collection of the data is more useful than just raw images, or messy categories. --Remi 21:28, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

 * Comment Like OMG, I love that show, don't delete it! But seriously, these pictures come from one of the most recognized antaomy textbooks of all time. But, I don't suggest keeping the article as a repository of images, that's not what Wikipedia is for. The images should be used in articles, not be the focus of one. -- Cyrus      Andiron    [[Image:Flag_of_Indiana.svg|24px]] 19:15, 11 May 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep. As noted in WP:LISTS, "Lists can be used as a table of contents, or if the user is browsing without a specific research goal in mind...". Unless I misunderstand how Commons works, this hierarchical browsing function would be lost. -- MarcoTolo 22:14, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Strong transwiki all to WikiSource. This isn't an encyclopedia article (we have that), it's the actual contents of the book. As such it belongs on our sister project, not here. It would be fantastic if we had a wikified version of the book over there. --Dhartung | Talk 06:08, 12 May 2007 (UTC)
