  • Comment - I'm not 100% behind this nomination, as promotion will leave us with two FPs that are substantially identical and am not convinced the other will be delisted. The difference between the two images has EV and I can comprehend this nom being a retrospective set, but this difference must be made clear otherwise we will end up with a situation where usages are split somewhat arbitrarily between the two images.

  • I missed that, so have to withdraw support. Charlesjsharp (talk) 15:14, 21 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • The other FP was promoted in 2005 when this alternative was not available I believe. It also fails WP:FP? #8 (bullet 4): "Any manipulation which causes the main subject to be misrepresented is unacceptable. (See: Moon landing conspiracy theories#Photographic and film oddities) It is also of lower resolution. --- Coffeeandcrumbs 15:24, 21 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Then you should nominate it for delisting. MER-C 16:12, 21 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I am scared. When I tried to do that at Commons, discussion went bad very fast. --- Coffeeandcrumbs 16:48, 21 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
