| rdfs:comment | - The current image is also used further down on the page, where it fits its respective battle. Considering that there are other unused battle images, it makes sense to change the profile image to another image we already have uploaded somewhere else. A such, I made a selection of three images. #1 is a unicum: it features no flashy bending, just a nonbender going at someone else. For that reason alone, I kind of like it :-) #2 portrays the battle between mecha suits, hinting at how much more modernized the fighting tools have become in 174 AG. #3 depicts the big battle and the antagonist/protagonist (sort of) of the last book.Personally, I prefer the first just because of its simplicity and the fact that it showcases a nonbender in battle. 12:17, January 14, 2016 (UTC)

I am leaning more toward PR2, because I like highlighting the more mechanized evolution of duels by 174 AG. File:Waterbending emblem.png Water Spout 16:03, January 18, 2016 (UTC) PR 1 might be unique, but I do think it's rather dull, and I don't really see it as a proper profile image. I still like the current, since it is the most significant battle in the series, but Lostris' argument for changing it is sound. PR 3 doesn't really show a duel, so that brings me to PR 2. I agree with Water Spouts reasoning, that it's a nice display of the mecha tanks that we see a lot of in Book 4, and strictly speaken, also appeases Lostris' need for a non-bender, as Zhu Li is piloting one of the two mecha tanks pictured ;). So yeah, I'm for PR 2. 19:33, January 18, 2016 (UTC) Just to be clear, I don't "need" there to be a non-bender and Zhu Li being a pilot is irrelevant as #2 is just "clash of the robots" :-p It's just a nice touch in my opinion to go for simplicity and highlight that not all battles in the Avatar world are fought with flashy elements or cool toys. Nonbenders are a part of the world too (the entire TLoK book 1 was about that), so I do think it's somewhat sad to dismiss a nonbending duel as "dull" just because the sparks aren't literally flying off the image. As for context: there are another robot image on the page itself, but nowhere is there a nonbending duel featured. 20:08, January 18, 2016 (UTC) For the record, I'm not dismissing it as 'dull' because it's with a non-bender, I'm doing that because I think that particular image is a bit dull. I prefer #2 because it's more unique to 174 AG, as the only other mecha tank battle consists of two whole punches between Hiroshi and Asami in the Book 1 finale. Also, I do believe the guy that Kai fought for the food was a non-bender, or at least, he didn't display any. 20:50, January 18, 2016 (UTC) The guy may have been a nonbender, but the image portraying that battle has airbending on it, and on the Duels (174 AG) page, there is another image of the same fight #2 comes from, so the tanks are already portrayed visually on the page. That's what I meant with "no nonbending visualization", because every always seem to have something flashy drawing attention away from them. 20:58, January 18, 2016 (UTC) I personally like proposal 2 the best, as it demonstrates both the standard duel plus the major technological davancements made in that time.
