Support -- Alborzagros (talk) 11:35, 21 November 2012 (UTC)- Support A good portrait. I like it a lot. I am not well versed in Commons:Photographs of identifiable people - in the country specific section it is mentioned that in India there are exceptions to the general rule of allowing to publish a portrait taken in public without explicitly asking for consent. But I do not know what these exceptions are. I am pointing this out because the {{Consent}} template is not present on the file page. Probably everything is OK, but can someone more competent than me please confirm this? --Slaunger (talk) 19:59, 21 November 2012 (UTC)
- Found it: Commons:Country_specific_consent_requirements#India. The exceptions are ...publishing a photo in a manner that might be "embarrassing, mentally traumatic" or causing "a sense of insecurity about [depicted persons] activities" is illegal ... and I do not think any of these exceptions apply in this case. --Slaunger (talk) 20:02, 21 November 2012 (UTC)
- I would think the question whether this is taken in a private or public setting is more pressing. I know very little in regards to wedding celebrations in the Hija village at Ziro (or the rest of India for that matter), but I would expect such a thing to take place in a private place? If it is then {{Consent}} is needed in any case. If it is in a public space, then I would think it is okay. According to a paper by the Centre for Internet & Society in India not much privacy can be expected on the streets of India and the photograph of the woman doesn't appear to "embarrassing, mentally traumatic" or causing "a sense of insecurity about [depicted persons] activities" (per Commons:Country specific consent requirements#India). In kind regards, Henrik/heb [T C E] 14:36, 22 November 2012 (UTC)
- I don't know about this particular tribe, but weddings are often a public event in India. Yann (talk) 10:03, 23 November 2012 (UTC)

Comment Very interesting, but the light is not ideal. The face is in the shadow, and the reflection on the forehead of the background woman is overexposed. Yann (talk) 21:26, 21 November 2012 (UTC)
Oppose Good EV (per EN:FP); but technically not enough for an FP here (eyes in shadows, blown background object between the faces,not sharp enough, bad crop). I like the other low res. picture in the article, more. JKadavoor Jee 05:03, 22 November 2012 (UTC)- Support -- Penyulap ☏ 09:29, 22 November 2012 (UTC)
- Oppose It's a great photo, but I don't like the possible ambiguity as to whether this is taken in public or private space. In kind regards, Henrik/heb [T C E] 14:36, 22 November 2012 (UTC)
- Oppose per Yann --Dey.sandip (talk)
- Oppose per above --Stas1995 (talk) 16:34, 22 November 2012 (UTC)
