- Oppose - the related File:Franklin Roosevelt signing declaration of war against Germany.jpg is of much higher quality. Maybe the crop is impossible to fix, but the image needs some restoration (contrast or something) before it can be considered among wikipedia's best work. Nergaal (talk) 02:43, 2 October 2010 (UTC)
- Oppose Very strong EV, but the quality of this reproduction is poor. Nick-D (talk) 01:58, 6 October 2010 (UTC)
- Oppose per Nergaal. The other image works much better for all articles except Results of the attack on Pearl Harbor (though I suppose the argument could be made if one were inclined to play Devil's Advocate). Regardless, the quality difference between the two is telling. bahamut0013wordsdeeds 11:53, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
