:No. But frankly, I think this image needs replacing with one of Peter's Orson-Wellsian-looking images, with the beard. Maybe someone has a chot of him from BotCon. --[[User:M Sipher|M Sipher]] 19:54, 15 February 2008 (UTC) | |||
:I...don't see why. I mean, fictional characters, as per this wiki, exist solely within the context of Transformers. We could probably find a better shot of, say, [[Bushido]] than the one we're using, but his article here concerns only his Transformers appearances. It's written in-universe. | |||
:Pages for real people, on the other hand, are written out-of-universe. We're obviously not going to find any images of [[Chris Latta]] in Transformers itself, and I haven't seen any publicity stills of him, so a shot from ''Road House'' is better than nothing. In fact, it's much better than nothing, because ''Road House'' is awesome. But I digress. | |||
:Headshots and the like are probably preferable to movie screencaptures, but I see no problem with using them when a) the movie screencap is hilarious or b) there's no headshot available. - [[User:RolonBolon|RolonBolon]] 19:59, 15 February 2008 (UTC) | |||
