- Oppose - Below the minimum resolution. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 14:30, 10 August 2015 (UTC)
Support -- Outstanding EV. The 1% deficit in vertical resolution not important here as the script is clearly legible and every mark can be seen and identified. There are already higher resolution images available on the internet, though not as good as this image. No doubt a suitable higher resolution image will eventually be uploaded to overwrite this one.

- Neutral Waiting for a photo with higher resolution, even though this one looks great already. --Tremonist (talk) 12:51, 11 August 2015 (UTC)
- Support . Beauty should not rule the necessity. Reasoning to have an standard is itself a response to technical issues of minor nature. Nannadeem (talk) 13:42, 11 August 2015 (UTC)
- Oppose - It's not bad, but it's below the minimum pixel threshold by quite a bit. I'm sure a better scan will be available in the future. Mattximus (talk) 23:58, 12 August 2015 (UTC)
