re. "Why was the Hmong People Collage picture removed on Hmong wiki?"

[edit]

Hello, IP! I will leave the response to this question you asked at my talk page in here, to ensure that you are notified about this message.

To put it simply, a photo collage consisting of various members of an ethnic group, like the Hmong, are discouraged on the infobox (and on the rest of the article). Wikipedia has a manual of style (or MOS), a collection of standards and guidelines for how to write and format articles in here. This includes style guidelines that concern images in articles.

In the part of the MOS concerning images, we have the following sentence: Articles about ethnic groups or similarly large human populations should not be illustrated by a photomontage or gallery of images of group members; see this and this thread for the most recent consensus discussion on the topic. Feel free to click the highlighted threads to further understand how the community came to such a conclusion.

If you have any questions as a new editor about how Wikipedia works, you may direct your queries to this help forum called the Teahouse. A fellow editor would be able to answer your questions there shortly. Welcome!

@Azn96Hmoob, if this is you, I have left a similar message explaining the MOS with regards to images in your talk page. Thank you, and take care!
