- Well, it hasn't been a week since the 16th. This is an unusual circumstance, but if it's really that much of an issue I suppose we can wait two days. AllegedlyHuman (talk) 00:37, 22 February 2021 (UTC)
- Comment – Correct me if I am wrong, but the images don't look significantly different to convey "mass power outages", as quoted from the lead sentence of the article. The set does convey some power outage, but not as significantly as has been reported, as far as I understand it. Bammesk (talk) 01:10, 22 February 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose per above comment, difference too small. --Janke | Talk 16:36, 22 February 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose - There's nothing remarkable about these photos. If anything, it shows what a good job the Houston power companies did in maintaining electricity running for ~95% of the city. -- Veggies (talk) 14:10, 24 February 2021 (UTC)
