London images

[edit]

@BawinV: Hello, may I ask what specific purposes you have in mind for the four London images? Wouldn't they constitute WP:INDISCRIMINATE given that they are not the only four locations mentioned in the song? There are also no further analyses on the literary importance of such locations within the song's context. Any sound reason? Ippantekina (talk) 13:34, 21 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think it's indiscriminate since all of the locations are mentioned in the prose. Also, I disagree with you on your reasoning. Every article/source on the song highlights how the song lists all of the London locations Swift had been to with the song's subject; clearly, those landmarks are crucial to the song. I would recommend adding an image of each and every location mentioned in the song, but I thought four were more than enough; you are free to expand them by adding the rest.

@BawinV: Per MOS:IRELEV They are often an important illustrative aid to understanding. I don't think images of London locations specifically do this (yeah.. it's about London and all those locations, but then they may suit better at Wikivoyage or a travel blog, don't you think?)
