Forum:Double Portraits

Browsing through the Portraits category it came to my attention that there are sometimes two or more portraits of a character.

While I do understand child appearances and pre/post-ts portraits I don't see why some characters need 2 portraits of the same kind. Like this:

I suggest we clean the category up and get rid of some of those.

Agreed. But have you checked out if any of those are still used? I know the Crocodile image on the right is used in the Image Guidelines as an example. As long as we make sure we don't end up with any broken links somewhere as a result, I think we definitely get rid of the doubles. 19:12, August 29, 2012 (UTC)

Apparently they are all in use. I'd say we should make a list of all the doubles, decide on one and replace the others with it.

Yeah, I'd say go for that. Let's just make sure we don't mess up any text content by removing certain ones. (in articles only, social pages don't really matter) 22:14, August 29, 2012 (UTC)

Get a complete list first. Knock this thing out in one fell swoop. 15:53, September 1, 2012 (UTC)

Don't forget that sometimes two portraits are used for showing a character in two different moments of the storyline. For example, the Crocodile pictures you posted should be kept in my opinion: one portraits Crocodile as normal (so it's should be used for most of the templates) the other show him as prisoner, hence it's used only in impel down (I believe). If you think that's shouldn't be the case, look at the Impel Down gallery, Luffy, Buggy, Mr. 2 are better examples. I don't see any reason to keep separated the other images you posted though. Anyway, make a list (a gallery if you can be so kind) and then we'll see.
