preserving commented-out link to an image, removed from main page

This link: [ [Image:Caslonsample.jpg|thumb|A Specimen of typeset fonts and languages, by William Caslon, letter founder; from the 1728 [ [Cyclopaedia]].] ] has been removed from the main page, where it was commented out. It was causing an extra skipped line. I'll leave it here awhile in case someone wants to do something about it.Pat Palmer 11:25, 13 April 2007 (CDT)

And, here's another one for preservation: [ [Image:Surfacegyri.jpg|thumb|Some of the areas of the brain involved in language processing: [ [Broca's area]], [ [Wernicke's area]], [ [Supramarginal gyrus]], [ [Angular gyrus]], [ [Primary Auditory Cortex]]] ]Pat Palmer 14:01, 13 April 2007 (CDT)
