- Support I think it is eye-catching to the point that people would click on the article. I like it because the grayscale and lighting here has a very restful (tranquil?) feeling to it. It also has a very encyclopedic look to it and would cast Wikipedia in a fine light for a day. Greg L (talk) 04:18, 1 August 2010 (UTC)
Support I do agree with with Greg L here. -- bydand•talk 04:40, 2 August 2010 (UTC)- Oppose - my mind has been changed by J Milburn. I seem to have been making some strange edits earlier today, and I have a feeling I thought I was in VPC and not FPC. -- bydand•talk 20:06, 3 August 2010 (UTC)
- Oppose, not seeing what you're getting excited about here. The lighting's not great, the quality's not sky-high (looks like a scan of a not-so-great copy) and it's a bit dirty. Additionally, modern formal portraits of this sort normally don't stand a chance. J Milburn (talk) 17:45, 2 August 2010 (UTC)
- Oppose Sorry i just can't see why this should be FP. What J Milburn has said all rings true with me. JFitch (talk) 23:23, 8 August 2010 (UTC)
