Eloquence
  • EV stands for Encyclopedic Value - "Adds value to an article and helps readers to understand an article. The image is used in one or more articles. A picture's encyclopedic value is given priority over its artistic value." Also "An image has more encyclopedic value (often abbreviated to "EV" or "enc" in discussions) if it contributes strongly to a single article, rather than contributing weakly to many. Adding an image to numerous articles to gain EV is counterproductive and may antagonize both FPC reviewers and article editors." That said, I vote Support. Awesome image, great historical value, and good enough EV. We've got an article about the photographer, guys! Aaadddaaammm (talk) 18:28, 9 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
