Misleading image?

[edit]

I'm all for including images in articles, but isn't a picture of a Progress M55 to illustrate a M06M as misleading as using a picture of a Honda Accord to illustrate an article about the Honda Civic? Otherwise, the article is very well written, IMO. -- Matthew Edwards -- 66.174.93.50 (talk) 15:57, 3 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

If I understand correctly, the difference between the two is just the designation; they're the same type of spacecraft, M-whatever just indicates the particular mission. I'm not totally sure about that, but it's the impression I get from quickly reading the Wikipedia articles. Cheers, C628 (talk) 16:13, 3 July 2010 (UTC)Reply
C628, you are correct in your assumption. I chose this particular image to effectively identify the subject of the article, which is the Progress spacecraft. M-06M is the mission designation, they are nearly identical spacecraft (M55 and M06M). Thank you Mr. Edwards for bringing your concerns forward. Tyrol5 (talk) 16:41, 3 July 2010 (UTC)Reply
