•  Info Just for the record: Yes, I don't much like the words on the poster, but "The Black Patti" was used so often to refer to her that she made a whole music group named "The Black Patti Troubadours", and the "Greatest Singer of her Race" thing appears over and over - on her gravestone, on plaques related to her, as the subtitle of a biography...

  • Could you at least change the Filename to just her name? I think that would be appropriate, I can't bring myself to support a file with this filename --Kritzolina (talk) 10:48, 22 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    • Let me check at en-wiki, since it's featured there and there's some interesting ways to break the on-wiki system with file moves here.
    • @Kritzolina: There we go! Sorry, thought it better to do it right than quickly. Adam Cuerden (talk) 11:47, 23 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
      • Thank you very much, this file name is so much better. While we cannot change the past, we can do a lot about how we represent it here on our projects. And this change of filename hopefully will be an example others will follow. --Kritzolina (talk) 16:15, 23 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
        • No worries! It's a great image for her, which is why I did it, but her publicists... Not as much of a fan. Adam Cuerden (talk) 16:20, 23 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
•  Support This is part of American history, and it's not nearly as bad as the covers of some Scott Joplin rags from the times when he sold his music outright and had no creative control over the sheet music covers. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 02:15, 22 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

•  Support Excellent restoration, and per the title, sadly the use of such terms is a part of history and there's no use running from it Cmao20 (talk) 08:50, 23 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
