- Support Good photo with strong EV. I'd note though that a cropped version is currently in the bio article - I don't think that the crop is actually better in that context. I also don't love the barbies at the front of the photo being out of focus, but suspect that this was unavoidable given camera technology at the time. Nick-D (talk) 23:49, 29 July 2023 (UTC)

- I think it's probably fair to say as well that for most uses of the time, which would have been newspaper halftone, the focus wouldn't have mattered that much.

- Reason
- High quality photo of physicist and former astronaut Ed Lu. The infobox image is nice but not as good technically (it's unsharp and noisy). I cropped this image using Template:CSS image crop. If the nom passes, I will create a cropped file.

- Comment – Rather obscure subject. Marginal EV. Photo doesn't lead infobox. – Sca (talk) 12:42, 27 July 2023 (UTC)
- I don't think an astronaut who flew on three space missions is 'obscure'. My concern with this image is that it provides no indication of why Mr Lu is notable - it depicts a middle aged man in smart casual attire, which is about as generic as you can get. The infobox photo is much better. Nick-D (talk) 23:40, 28 July 2023 (UTC)
- Portrait of a subject in a biography article is a well-established precedent, lots of examples in past FPs. He isn't just an astronaut, but a working physicist too. Infobox image doesn't have the quality. Nom image is high quality. Obscurity isn't relevant, we are an encyclopedia, not a magazine. Things like indicating his notability, being in infobox are pluses, but not requirements. See Oppenheimer nom below [1], there is no indication of his notability. Lots of similar examples in past FPs. Bammesk (talk) 03:56, 29 July 2023 (UTC)

- Reason
- Rather high quality, high resolution photograph that I have restored with way more care than I probably needed to get away with it. The extreme left side was particularly damaged, and it would, of course be insane to not just crop it. It would take days of work, probably well over ten, fifteen hours on a less than 500px wide strip of an over 9000px wide image.
- So here's a comparison of the extreme left hand side before and after, with a scrollbar so you can go up and down1
- This is an example of bragging, and could potentially be added to that article.

- Comment This gives me the opportunity to raise a question I had, which is whether the picture really needs correction? Those may be paint loss and defects in the painting as it currently is, rather than defects in the photograph of the painting. Especially given that the painting is used in art articles, shouldn't we reproduce the painting, rather than trying to "correct" it as we might do with some illustrations for articles? It seems that a reproduction of a painting should represent the painting and be clearly labeled in the article caption if it's been "improved".--Jahaza (talk) 23:22, 31 July 2023 (UTC)
- We usually don't restore paintings, particularly when the digital reproduction is high quality and the source is reliable (for example the museum that houses the painting). There are instances when we have touched up noncontroversial, and usually minor, abnormalities (for example, borders of a painting), i.e. when doing so is common sense. That's my experience at FPC.

- Reason
- I think this is probably the best of the photos we have of her, in a pretty iconic look. Did reshuffle the images on her page - didn't remove any, just changed the order - because, while I don't think there's anything wrong with leading with a 2014 photo in theory, the old lead image looks really snapshotty.
- Crop is, I think, justified by the marks on the original, which indicate fairly strongly a crop was planned. I also uploaded one that edited out the X's.

- Comment - I don't think this is a peacock dancer. It looks like, the image is taken during some fashion show not during any peacock dance. May be I am unaware but I don't think peacock dancers do body art apart from using the feathers, especially in India. Mayilattam is the dance form is the only one I know. It will be misleading the EV I feel. Please check this [3] too. DreamSparrow Chat 16:18, 6 August 2023 (UTC)

However, I found the descriptions of most of the images are for the purpose of naming the image and not related EV if am not wrong. Have a look Josh Milburn.

- Back then, before the advent of 3-color Technicolor, night scenes were often tinted blue, as in this case. (Shooting at night was virtually impossible due to slow film speeds...)

- Fascinating! — Chris Woodrich (talk) 19:00, 16 August 2023 (UTC)
- And not just night scenes. Tinted prints were used for all sorts of reasons. I watched the new restoration of Hitchcock's Downhill with Ivor Novello a couple of weeks ago. The default tint for most of the film is a ruddy red color, but when Novello is feverish and delirious the scenes that represent his hallucinations are colored a sickly, bilious green. It's not a great film overall, but there are some good things in it, and the delirium scenes alone are worth the price of admission. Choliamb (talk) 00:04, 17 August 2023 (UTC)

- Support. I first saw Wings in San Francisco in the early 1980s, with live organ accompaniment by the late lamented Bob Vaughan. On a big screen with live music it was really fantastic. (Bob Vaughan was a fixture at Bay Area silent film festivals for decades. He was later shamefully slandered by David Fincher in Zodiac, who portrayed him as a creepy and cadaverous psycho. The real Bob Vaughan was nothing like what you see in that movie: he was cheerful, outgoing, unfailingly friendly, and probably the least serial-killery guy you could ever hope to meet.) – Choliamb (talk) 00:29, 17 August 2023 (UTC)
- Random question. How did you see the film in the 80s if the film was lost for decades and was found in the 1990s? GamerPro64 04:02, 17 August 2023 (UTC)
- @GamerPro64: It's an excellent question! The answer is that the Wikipedia article is mistaken when it states that the film was considered lost until a print was found in the Cinemathèque française in 1992. Neither of the sources cited for that statement gives a date for the discovery, and I can't find any other pre-Wikipedia source that says it was as late as 1992. On the other hand, some notes from the SF silent film festival say it was found in the 1950s, while a blog post based on an interview with the person responsible for the later Paramount restoration suggests that the rumored Cinemathèque française print doesn't even exist. Neither of those are reliable sources and I have no idea what the truth is regarding the French print. But what I do know is that the Library of Congress owns a print and that they restored it in 1987: see, e.g., the catalogue of the American Film Archive and in this article in the New York Times from October 31, 1987. That's the one I saw. (I misremembered and wrote "early 1980s" above when I should have said "late 1980s" -- but it was certainly before 1992, when I was no longer living in San Francisco.) Not to mention that the film was already available on home video by 1989. I don't know how the "lost until 1992" statement got into the Wikipedia article, but it's demonstrably untrue.

But I have no ownership issues and it's fine with me if others want to put more work into it.

- It does a really good job at showing the exaggerated, "æsthetic" poses used in the original show. I did have to fill in some cut-off corners, but there's no encyclopedic content in them, just the photographer's backdrop. I kind of like the attempt to disguise the back brace that let him hold the pose long enough to get the shot with straw. (look between his feet). Original run of the opera. A little grainy, but not excessively given it was a relatively small photo.

- Weak oppose – too much of the fish (the right half) is badly out of focus. Bammesk (talk) 14:29, 27 August 2023 (UTC)

- Support - Great image with a contrasting background. Wish that the white feather / object in the top right didn't exist but it is not too distracting. Kalyan (talk) 03:07, 27 August 2023 (UTC)

- Comment Technically excellent... but he seems covered in dew. For identification, something without the water droplets will likely be more useful. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 11:21, 21 August 2023 (UTC)
- Support – agree with Chris' ID concern, but the resolution, wow, and top+side view make this a pass for me. Bammesk (talk) 03:24, 23 August 2023 (UTC)
- Support — But that it is covered in dew should be mentioned in both the image description and the captions at the wikipedia article. — UnpetitproleX (talk) 12:08, 23 August 2023 (UTC)
- Oppose Not enough EV. There are better encyclopaedic images without dew. Charlesjsharp (talk) 15:48, 23 August 2023 (UTC)
