[edit] Thorold Rogers

The potrait added to this page is a caricature. It may have been amusing to partisans at the time it was published, but it seems to have a highly prejudicial effect on Wikipedia's page. Was this your intent?Fconaway (talk) 09:38, 23 November 2007 (UTC) (Pasted from Rotational's talk page)

Hello Fconaway

I'm puzzled that you see the caricature as prejudicial, since even when published originally in the pages of Vanity Fair, the idea was never to denigrate the subject, but rather to portray features in an exaggerated fashion. A large number of WP articles use these caricatures, so I presume that their is some consensus that their inclusion is useful rather than derogatory.
