  • Support the proposed crop. Bammesk (talk) 03:23, 20 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'd also crop off enough pixels to remove the damage on top, or repair it otherwise. MER-C 09:32, 20 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose I do not believe we should crop archive photos or photos by living photographers. We should assume the photographer wanted it as it is. This image is ruined by the hand in the foreground, but should not be cropped (or cloned). Charlesjsharp (talk) 19:49, 21 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support crop only. We have a history of allowing digital manipulation when the image is not the subject of an article in and of itself. Restorations remove dust and smudges, uploaders adjust contrast and balance levels (mostly for digital images, but I have had to use it for images I scanned personally), etc. In this case, an argument can readily be made that the extraneous arm was not a deliberate part of the composition, but rather an "action" shot of an architect by a landscape/architectural photographer who saw the opportunity and took it.  — Chris Woodrich (talk) 14:07, 22 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
