"All involved parties should be banned from editing, and leave the work to uninvolved "Martian" editors" —Preceding signed comment added by Nicky Nouse (talkcontribswikia) 07:14, 26 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I changed my mind-- I'm not too fond of the image. I think it would look better with an illustration of a Martian carrying out a non-COI edit: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Alvim-correa12.jpg - Bob the Wikipedian (talkcontribs) 19:47, 17 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Changed. EWikistTalk 22:17, 18 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Very good. Now change the image credit, lol. BOB THE WIKIPEDIAN (talkcontribs) 06:54, 19 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Image credit? Ahem... I mean, yes! Of course I changed the image credit! To suggest that I would forget such a crucial aspect of the card is absurd! Maybe you should look again... EWikistTalk 19:40, 19 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I'm glad that you wouldn't forget such a thing. I like the image; the card is good, and I'll pass it once we finish arguing about card design. :) ~~ Hi878 (Come shout at me!) 00:17, 20 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from the card's original proposal

Wow... Yes. I think that this one will put smiles on people's faces. :) ~~ Hi878 (Come shout at me!) 20:01, 5 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Err...I request a rewording in compliance with the new rule I proposed, It could be rephrase as such: No article related to Geography and Places may be created or edited. Although this not fully capture the essence of it. This is because justifying Related to Earth is highly debatable. TheSignPainter97 (talk)

Thumbs down icon Oppose per that rule hasn't been approved yet and also I don't think we need to do away with the already-existing category system, at least not in this manner. Bob the WikipediaN (talkcontribs) 15:06, 4 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
