That
 said, changed the picture without any discussion, only because some 
people don't want to see a half-naked anime girl on Main Page (btw: What
 is the problem with that picture? I'm a girl, and i'm not AT ALL 
offended for see that in main page) was a act that NO ONE should do 
without consensus. Not an adm, not an editor, not a staff. 


And do that by abusing the tools WMF and the communitty gave you only made 
everything even worse. 

That
 said, i restored the original image of the day and would love if you 
people decide if the picture should stay or not in main page ON COMMONS

I still don't understand what that image that you restored is doing on the main 
page ofCommons. If I record an original, unpublished post-punk song with my 
completely non-notable garage band, will you feature that too on the main page, 
as an educational exampleof post-punk? If not, how is that image different?
Does Commons now provide free advertising for up-and-coming artists eager to 
makea name for themselves?
