50 whole pixels

[edit]

Guys, are you sure that it's not too much? Seems rather swanky to me. I can barely handle all sixteen square pixels of explosive colour and cutting-edge detail per thumbnail per rose. --Pitke (talk) 19:47, 5 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Simplifying the display list

[edit]

I would like to make some changes to make the list easier to view. I am thinking of removing the cultivar name and just having the most popular marketing name, which appears in many of the entries. Its a mix of both and alternate names. I also would like to remove the breed date and the repeat flowering column and possibly make the images larger. The cultivar name, breed date and repeat flowering info can be found in the rose article, if a wiki article exists. I may create more rose articles from this list. I will wait to see if anyone objects to my proposed changes. MauraWen (talk) 15:10, 7 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@MauraWen: Don't remove the cultivar name or the repeat flowering column. Both are interesting and important. The marketing name is required by law. The images are meant to be thumbnails which are enlarged by clicking.
However, the breeder, breed date and AGM date have all been added at a later stage - and in my view they can be removed. They are specialist details which may not be so interesting for the general reader. I agree that the list has become too congested. It was not originally like that.
