Which should be the lead image? edit

Yeouido Skylines - 201912211335.jpg

This article formerly used a street scene as its lead image. On 19 December 2017, an IP changed this to Yeouido.png (and also for some reason put in HTML that required clicking on an "i" to see the image larger; I have removed this). On 8 February 2020, 브릴란떼 replaced this with their own photo, Yeouido Skylines - 201912211335.jpg. Pinging also 钉钉, who has been reverting to the older image. Which is better should be decided here. I prefer the older one because the newer one is grey and the buildings are smaller and therefore harder to make out. Yngvadottir (talk) 18:46, 8 February 2020 (UTC)Reply

(IP that commented on WP:ANI here). Got to agree that aesthetically the earlier of the two disputed images is better. If the only thing going for the replacement is that it is a few years newer I don't think the change is justified. As Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Images makes clear, the quality of a photo matters. The newer one might possibly be cropped to improve composition, but even then the lack of colour (which is presumably down to poor lighting) will leave it looking relatively dull and lifeless, and the distance and low angle it is taken from does little to give any sense of perspective. If a newer photo is to be used, it needs to be composed more carefully, and taken with the right equipment under the right conditions. 165.120.19.88 (talk) 23:10, 8 February 2020 (UTC)Reply
Every so often my trolling of ANI leads me to something kind of interesting. But yeah, the original picture is far better – it's clearer and the colors are much more vivid. The only reason to go with a lower-quality but newer picture is if there were some drastic change to the subject in the intervening time that needs a newer image to demonstrate. But that doesn't appear to be the case here. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 00:24, 9 February 2020 (UTC)Reply
The original photo is obviously much better. I see no reason why this article needs to use 브릴란떼's photo. The reason this user provided is simply because he/she took the photo him/herself. But everyone can take photos. 钉钉 (talk) 05:39, 9 February 2020 (UTC)Reply
There's no drastic change in the skyline. The original was better. A newer photo doesn't mean it's better, otherwise leading cities like London or New York will have their photos changed everyday. EDIT: upon closer examination, there does appear to be a prominent new red clad building obstructing the all-glass skyscraper. I think I would compromise by adding the new photo in the article itself with a Yeouido in 2020 caption. Seloloving (talk) 13:33, 9 February 2020 (UTC)Reply
  • First, slightly older, picture looks far superior to me. It's almost wasted in the snmall info box though - perhaps the box should be bigger? I don't see how in any way the second picture has any advantage, given the buildings seem virtually unchanged. Nfitz (talk) 01:19, 10 February 2020 (UTC)Reply
I am an author. I'm very sorry for the hasty response. I thought it was a mistake for the simple idea that the photo information was old. But when I open the debate and think about it, I think it's not enough.--브릴란떼 (talk) 14:32, 10 February 2020 (UTC)Reply
That's ok, 브릴란떼, you were trying to help, although as the IP editor said at the discussion on AN/I, you and 钉钉 should have come here to talk about it instead of edit warring. I like the idea Seloloving has above, of adding the newer photo at a later point in the article. It's also from a different vantage point, showing the bridge off to the side. Seloloving, the new building with red external skeleton appears to be the Parc1 Tower (quite an uninformative article; I can confirm from Emporis that it's topped out and actually consists of a group of 4 buildings including a tall tower, but I don't find it listed at the architectural partnership page and the architects' page footnoted is blocked by Malwarebytes); see this image from last April, which I found at the Korean page on the project. We should perhaps note that in the caption to 브릴란떼's picture, although it's original research on my part. Yngvadottir (talk) 17:03, 11 February 2020 (UTC)Reply
