Male erection photo.
[edit]This naked erection falls outside normal Wikipedia guidance. “normally choose images that portray the human body in an unemotional, non-sexual standard anatomical position over more sexual images”
It’s pretty clear this is a sexual image. Aa anatomical figure would appropriately and better meet Wikipedia’s stated guidance. Travguy (talk) 20:18, 3 July 2026 (UTC)
- The article is literally entitled “Erection”. The image is appropriate. Jtrevor99 (talk) 00:03, 4 July 2026 (UTC)

In the section regarding erection angles there is no photograph as reference. I suggest adding a photo. This free use photo represents an angled erection. https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=File:Hispanic_uncircumcised_penis.jpg&oldid=1264178906 Aj2020Aj (talk) 10:50, 20 August 2026 (UTC)

Change erection photo in clothes to angle of erection photo as it goes better with the flow of the article. Attached is a photo that references the angle of erection. https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=File:Hispanic_uncircumcised_penis.jpg&oldid=1264178906 Aj2020Aj (talk) 10:56, 20 August 2026 (UTC)
- No, we aren’t going to insert a low-quality unencyclopedic photo of your own genitals into the article. Jtrevor99 (talk) 12:03, 20 August 2026 (UTC)
