Comment - Main subject is only a small fraction of the image area. --Janke | Talk 13:51, 28 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Comment – I am undecided, the nom image has very good EV, it shows an assassin bug with a prey. I would support the infobox image in article Rhynocoris iracundus, if it was cropped with a few more pixels to meet 1500px. It has more detail. Bammesk (talk) 01:08, 29 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support both, prefer Alt – ~~but Alt definitely needs a re-crop to meet 1500px, and perhaps denoising of the bokeh~~... done. Bammesk (talk) 13:35, 30 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Conditional support either, prefer original. First image should be cropped, the second needs a slightly wider crop to meet the resolution criteria. MER-C 13:41, 30 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Crop of original would probably invalidate FP on Commons. New larger, denoised version of alt. uploaded. Charlesjsharp (talk) 12:00, 31 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

How about uploading the former as a separate file? MER-C 17:45, 31 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see any reason why you can't upload the crop with a different filename. We edit FPCs all the time. The only catch is that the Commons FP might replace the en.wp FP in the article some time in the future. MER-C 18:37, 31 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I'd withdraw this if I knew how to! Charlesjsharp (talk) 12:00, 2 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

None of the images has enough support for promotion. Armbrust ^{The Homunculus} 12:22, 7 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
