File:Papilloma Virus (HPV) EM.jpg

It is not a papilloma virus. It looks more like a herpes virus particle but without a size bar it is not possible to be sure. Graham Beards (talk) 17:04, 3 January 2020 (UTC)

You're the expert Graham. I see that most of the images at that url, in that number range are HHV-6. With that said, this file is widely used and we don't have a replacement. Unless we're sure or can find a replacement can we delay? Ian Furst (talk) 02:53, 9 January 2020 (UTC)

I have probably got a replacement in my archive. I'll have rummage. Graham Beards (talk) 20:12, 9 January 2020 (UTC)

I have replaced it with an EM of a confirmed papilloma. I will try to find a better one with a higher resolution. Graham Beards (talk) 20:59, 9 January 2020 (UTC)

Could you split the file, please? These are not good overwrites as they are different photographs, not just different scans.

If necessary the global usage could be replaced with a better file, but it should be similar to the original illustration.

 Keep the original file, there is no case for deletion. Renaming or correcting the wikitext are done without needing DRs. --Fæ (talk) 12:49, 24 February 2020 (UTC)

• The files need to be split by closing admin, and figure out which image is to go with which article now. My suggestion is to keep the old file on all the article and then ask someone to replace them one-by-one, since it is the Wikipedia editorial community that has decided to use the image, they might be illustrating something differently than simply just the virus type (such as how a virus looks in isolation or by itself). --Jonatan Svensson Glad (talk) 22:03, 20 March 2020 (UTC)

Kept: The new file has been moved to File:Papilloma Virus (HPV) EM (new version).jpg. @Graham Beards: Please add a source and author of that file, and replace it where necissary in articles. --Jonatan Svensson Glad (talk) 22:12, 20 March 2020 (UTC)
