- weak oppose It doesn't transfer main concept. Lstfllw203 (talk) 17:07, 1 January 2018 (UTC)
- By "concept" I assume you mean: advocacy, reform movements. How well this image conveys the "concept" is debatable. I revised the article list above. This has been the lead image in two articles: Chartism (about 10 years) and William Edward Kilburn (3 years). It has EV in both. Bammesk (talk) 04:11, 2 January 2018 (UTC)
- Oppose – Nice historical artifact, but image doesn't convey a particular theme or message. Sca (talk) 17:29, 1 January 2018 (UTC)
- Weak oppose. Pretty hazy and blurry; while it's definitely better thanthe original, something like this with better color correction and artifact removal would seem like a better candidate. WiiWillieWiki 20:28, 2 January 2018 (UTC)
- WiiWillieWiki, the original is here at the Royal Collection, which has the physical copy. We don't color-correct or crop images of historic works, if published by the museum or gallery holding the actual physical work. That would be original research. Bammesk (talk) 04:07, 3 January 2018 (UTC)
