The Dashavatars does not include the founder of Buddhism(Gotama Buddha). It instead includes Sugata Buddha or just Lord Buddha who is a completely different person, being born in a different place(Gaya) as opposed to Kapilavastu and also having a different mother(Anjana) as opposed to Mayadevi. This Puranic Buddha is said to have been born into a family of Brahmins as opposed to the Shakyans that Buddhism's founder, Gotama Buddha was born into.
Unfortunately the Wiki Article, especially in the avatar's description section wrongly states the founder of Buddhism , Gotama Buddha to be one of the Dashavatars. Hoping someone would correct this inaccuracy.

The description says that the ninth avatar is Krishna, but in the image, it is written as Buddha.

It is Parashurama, Sreerama, Balarama, Sree Buddha, Kalki as pe the image. Krishna is not there as per image. Artist may be considering Krishna = Vishnu.

To solve this confusion among versions of Dashavatara, images of the three major versions followed by sects are added.
Vithoba and Jagannath are considered Krishna by sects outside Warkaris.
Vithobhas wife Rukhmai is Rukmini wife of Krishna and Jagannaths companions are Balabhadra (Balram) and Subhadra, Krishna's siblings.
Omitting versions will lead to generalisation.
The earliest available image is the ivory version in Delhi

Please be specific, and mention the version-name ("Balarama-Krishna," etc.). Obviously, the age of the pictures/statues is not a relevant criterium; the fact that Krishna-Buddha is called the most used list is more relevant. Joshua Jonathan - Let's talk! 05:50, 28 March 2024 (UTC)

This is a children's book published in the 80's as per this book the avatars ( Dashavatar) of Vishnu are
1. Matsya
2. Kurma
3. Mohini
4. Varaha
5. Narasimha
6. Vamana
7. Parashurama
8. Rama
9. Krishna
10. Kalki
I have come across different variations like for example taking out Mohini and adding Balarama or Buddha to fill the space.
As per my understanding Balarama is avatar of Anant Nag and Buddha although mentioned in texts is not specified as an avatar of Vishnu whereas Mohini is specified as Vishnu's avatar.

Actually Dashavatar concept is wrong as per Hindu scriptures, because Narasimha Avatar happened before kurma Avatar, King Bali Chakravarthy present in samudra manthan episode in where Kurma Avatar happened, Bali is grandson of Prahalada, Narasimha Avatar happened in Prahalada time, if Narasimha Avatar happened after kurma Avatar, then how Bali present in samudra manthan who is grandson of Prahalada, so Dashavatar concept is wrong, there are 24 incarnation of God Vishnu as per Vaishnava traditions of Hinduism. @ Chronikhiles @ Chariotrider555 @ Classicwiki 2409:4071:248C:F6A2:24D2:5EF0:29FA:84A ( talk) 13:42, 11 May 2024 (UTC)
