Original – Sue Gardner in February 2013

Alt 1

Reason: I think the only objection I could see to this excellent photograph is whether it's too Wikipedia-focused. This is easily dismissed: A. She's had othe major positions outwith Wikipedia. B. She was ranked the 70th most powerful woman in the world by Forbes. C. We have a fucking featured picture of Jimbo, so, that's an objection now?

Oppose - I think the acute angle to her face is unencyclopedic. Something like the image in this article is much better. JJ Harrison (talk) 05:30, 19 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- @JJ Harrison: How about the alt? Adam Cuerden ^(talk)_{Has about 8.9% of all FPs} 10:39, 19 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  - Support the alt. JJ Harrison (talk) 23:53, 19 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comment – Both poses (or are they candid 'action' shots?) by a commercial photographer seem rather odd. Also, WP:NAVEL. – Sca (talk) 14:58, 19 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- I think that if we have a picture of Jimbo in FP (we do), it would be odd deny Gardner on WP:NAVEL grounds. I think that might be a case for considering not putting her on the Main Page, though. Adam Cuerden ^(talk)_{Has about 8.9% of all FPs} 16:28, 19 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Support Alt 1 – for lead image in her article. Bammesk (talk) 16:36, 22 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose both I don't think that either image is FP-worthy. The original is a striking portrait (and the best choice for the infobox, IMO), but doesn't have FP-level EV as it doesn't clearly show her face and is too posed. Alt 1 is clearer, but also isn't a great portrait due to the facial expression. Nick-D (talk) 04:08, 29 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
