:::Your opinion of it is basically identical to mine. It's too 19th century romantic, not really how Thor was depicted, or how sources describe him, during the viking age or earlier ages(below on the article with the picture of Hercules Magusanus you get a proxy of how he would have been depicted earlier, although one could argue through a Romanized lense). I would prefer something a bit "rougher" looking or something ancient(which I credit [[user:Ingwina]] for suggesting as I find this to be an extremely good recommendation).

::::A request for comment ([[WP:RFC]]), I think that is a good idea to establish a [[WP:CONSENSUS]]. I do not have a super strong opinion on this, I reverted because this current image has been stable for many years, so a formal consensus should be established for a new image to prevent going back and forth. An RfC would probably be the best way to do this as it's a rather subjective situation. [[User:TylerBurden|TylerBurden]] ([[User talk:TylerBurden|talk]]) 13:31, 23 April 2026 (UTC)
