This graph would more clearly explain EEGs if it had labeled axes. I don’t know what the scale of the graph is, so I can’t do it – whoever knows the correct scale can add them. There are three axes here: the vertical axis of each squiggly line (voltage), the vertical axis of the set of squiggly lines (which electrode the wave is from), and the horizontal axis (time). The labels for the two continuous axes need the name of the property measured, the unit, and tick marks (time already has tick marks but not numbers for them), and the labels for each squiggly line need a letter, number, coordinate position, icon with a red dot on the outline of a head, or other unique identifier for the electrode. To show what the distance between tick marks represents, the tick marks can have either numbers next to each mark or a scale by the side of the graph.

I just read in the red infobox above this editing space that this talk page is not for requesting corrections to the image, so this would probably be better on the talk page for electroencephalography. However, I am getting tired of typing all this up and don’t want to take the extra effort to move it, and I figure it’s better to have good suggestions in the wrong place than no suggestions at all.
