Wikipedia:Picture peer review/George Wallace at University of Alabama

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
George Wallace in the famous "stand in the schoolhouse door", attempting to block the desegregation of the University of Alabama

There's obvious historic value here. Is this a photo famous unto itself, so it shouldn't be touched? I did a perspective correction and then cropped it. Thoughts on this?

  • Nice picture. It's focused and is pretty good quality. In several articles. I think it might have a chance at WP:FPC. When you nominate, make sure to emphasize how famous the photo is and the importance it has in the articles it illustrates. Good choice. :) Intothewoods29 (talk) 03:59, 29 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
