Possible Typo: "like tall bananas"

As just a casual reader of the description, i suspect that "like tall bananas" should be "like all bananas". This hypothesis is psychologically plausible given the preceding sentence, but after contemplation and trying to check the references, i am not confident.

Image caption

Hello @JBW: Was this edit correct? The previous edits were vandalism and I thought you intended to correct the vandalism but perhaps that was deliberate. Invasive Spices (talk) 9 July 2022 (UTC)

@Invasive Spices: I saw the previous edit, which looked like vandalism, and my first instinct was to revert it. However, sometimes edits like this, which look like vandalism, are in fact restoring correct information from before, so before reverting I checked further. As far as I can see there is no indication whatever where the photograph was taken, and in any case it's just a bunch of blue java bananas on a shelf, and where the photograph was taken really makes no difference at all, so I thought it better to just remove the statement as to where it was. Do you have a reliable source saying that it was at the Maui County Fair? If so do you have a reason that saying the photograph was taken at that fair is informative, or benefits the article?

I have removed it. I don't have a reason that saying the photograph was taken at that fair is informative, or benefits the article. Although the image contains the ribbon and competition ticket to support the caption – we have other text showing this is grown in Hawaii so I don't see any need.

Why is there no actually blue photograph?

It seems strange that the most notable features of these bananas is that they are blue when unripe, and yet there is no photo here of them being that blue, despite the fact that it's the only kind of picture of them you'll see anywhere else. It's right there in the name, yet instead we have multiple photos of their trees. This is a clear omission. Can somebody source such an image? 81.153.213.238 (talk) 09:47, 3 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
