- Support. I solid cleanup on a fine photo, which has excellent EV and visual appeal.--ragesoss (talk) 19:33, 27 November 2008 (UTC)
- Question: Any reason why the 3rd slide (Armstrong's left pinky) is upside down? Other images show him having it the typical way, so I was wondering if this was usual for Armstrong to do this. SpencerT♦C 17:53, 28 November 2008 (UTC)
- Support Excellent picture of an important figure in music. Makeemlighter (talk) 22:25, 28 November 2008 (UTC)
- Support great and possibly even iconic photo of Armstrong. My only worry is the removal of the picture frame (?) in the upper left corner but I suppose that's not really any ethics violations since we link to the original and it isn't changing the subject at all. Nice restore. gren グレン 06:56, 29 November 2008 (UTC)
