    • @Crisco 1492: That's mainly because it's a rather extreme crop of the original, though. Why not remove this from articles and put in the original, CSS cropped? I like the original better, anyway. Adam Cuerden (talk) 15:55, 25 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support ALT – uncropped version, and its use in articles by CSS image crop template, per above. It has the minimum pixels and good composition. Bammesk (talk) 17:15, 27 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    • At time this was added "Original" meant "alt". I think. Adam Cuerden (talk) 22:23, 4 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment- This is going to get confusing... The "original" meaning the original presented here, or the original pre-crop image (which hasn't been presented here as an alt yet)?-Godot13 (talk) 16:21, 29 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • I introduced an alternate and amended my vote. The scan has some technical issues but the photograph's quality is too good not to support, IMO. Bammesk (talk) 02:53, 1 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support ALT Adam Cuerden (talk) 22:23, 4 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support the alt version Per the above suggestion to use crop templates. Cat-fivetc ---- 08:57, 6 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
