  • Comment - Below minimum resolution. Excellent image, of course, but...  — Chris Woodrich (talk) 22:16, 22 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    • @Crisco 1492: Ah, I see. Would simply increasing the size of the image be acceptable? Otherwise, how could I fix this? MyCatIsAChonk (talk) (not me) (also not me) (still no) 13:30, 23 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
      • No, because we would end up with less detail and sharpness. The best way to do this would be to find another copy of the image and scan it physically. Unfortunately, the only one on ebay right now has been marked for cropping and would not scan properly. (As an aside... I thought I recognized this image - I uploaded the original crop years ago).  — Chris Woodrich (talk) 13:49, 23 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
        @Crisco 1492, I see then, thanks for clarifying that for me. Is there any chance it could pass, or would it be best to suspend this nom? MyCatIsAChonk (talk) (not me) (also not me) (still no) 13:54, 23 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
        • I don't see any resolution issue getting resolved within a reasonable time frame. I will keep an eye on eBay, though... they have some great images. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 14:28, 23 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
