  • Oppose – Nine-year-old official pic of well-known person. Fails to add significantly to EV. – Sca (talk) 14:34, 3 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Sca: How does the age of the photograph or the notability of the person somehow disqualify it? File:Official Portrait of President Reagan 1981.jpg, another portrait of a President, is a FP, and it was taken in 1981. -- Politicsfan4 (talk) 02:19, 11 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • CommentPoliticsfan4, FYI, I think it's a good portrait but I don't find the composition compelling. He is in this FP, a family portrait, so the bar is sort of high (at least for this subject). Bammesk (talk) 14:56, 11 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
