As might be expected, you were already reverted.  An article on Wikipedia
discussing "Depictions of Jesus" is quite expected to contain examples of
depictions of Jesus.  Please be flexible about these things.  There is no
need to say X kind of content belongs only on Y site.  The goal is to be
useful to readers.

At the very least, moving any large chunk of content out of Wikipedia,
primarily because you don't like it there, is something that should be
discussed among the contributors to that page.
