"Please do not add the image itself to this page. Images created during and after 1923 are not under the protection of United States Copyright law and are used under a provision of Fair Use, which requires the number of pages upon which the image is displayed to be limited." writes our trusty editor.

Says who? Surely, if an image is displayed at a reasonable size elsewhere, it must be all right to send the reader in that direction with a little thumbnail to whet the appetite? What say ye all? Francis Hannaway 22:19, 25 October 2011 (UTC)

Proposal: Overhauling the dimensions field of the table

I noticed some inconsistency with respect to formatting the values in the dimension field, and resolved on a solution that requires a little more overhead to start, but is fairly transparent. For guidance I looked to List of paintings by Thomas Cole because it was among WikiProject Visual arts' § Featured lists.

The TL;DR is that I propose wrapping every cell in the dimensions field in the {{convert}} template as follows (the disp=br() parameter specifies that the output of the conversion be placed on a new line and wrapped in parentheses):

{{convert|convert|89|x|116|cm|in|abbr=on|disp=br()}}

Which produces:

Dimensions
89 cm × 116 cm
(35 in × 46 in)


The {{convert}} template docs suggest separating dimensions in a table into separate columns by using disp=table, but I feel like that'd ultimately be worse because the table is already wide, and row height is already abundant given the inclusion of images.

I admit the markup isn't great to look at, but I think it's better than editors having to recall or look up all the details or having to decide which among the preexisting entries to mirror.

The inconsistencies:

  1. A couple of entries provided dimensions either exclusively or initially in imperial units.
  2. Usage of x (the letter) rather than × (multiplication sign), the latter of which is the formatting specified by the MoS:
    • Length–width, length–width–height and similar dimensions may be separated by the multiplication sign (×) or the word by.
      • The × symbol, or by, is preceded by a space (preferably non-breaking) and followed by a space (which may also be non-breaking in short constructions); and each number is typically followed by a unit name or symbol

    — Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Dates and numbers § Unit names and symbols

  3. Re: the second bullet point in the MoS quote, the use of nbsp; was inconsistent. And while the guidance is to always apply them between a value and unit symbol (e.g. 15nbsp;cm), it's just suggested to use a non-breaking space on either side of the value.
  4. Some unit symbols were dotted (e.g. cm.), while the guidance is to leave them undotted.

Of course, all of the above could be cleaned up programmatically in the same way I already proposed with the convert overhaul, but without making a huge change. I remain unclear on whether there's guidance on tables including conversion from metric to imperial or vice versa. spida-tarbell 𐡸 (talk • contribs) 07:12, 30 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
