Previous reviews

 Neutral It's the only image of the (deceased) subject on Commons though I hesitate to support because it's only 0.08 Mpx in size. MER-C 10:50, 1 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Comment I had the same concern during the test review phase, but after communicating with the uploader it seems like everything that can be done has been done to try and get an image with larger resolution. As a matter of fact getting a freely licensed photo of this notable and now deceased person seems to have been quite an accomplishment in the first place. -- Slaunger 11:51, 1 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support Just clears the bar on criterion 3, and is fine on 1, 2, 4 and 6. 5 not relevant. --MichaelMaggs 15:47, 1 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose fails criterion 3. Lycaon 18:14, 1 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support --Lerdsuwa 14:56, 8 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support High enough resolution that I would be able to recognize him on the street, if he wasn't dead. It's not like there's any reason we need to see every single blemish on his face. --Calibas 20:54, 8 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose as Lycaon. criterion 3 is serious • Rohan T 22:29, 8 June 2008
  •  Comment The mere fact that it is used on 23 different WMF project content pages is a strong indicator of value for me despite the quality. It demonstrates it has high value for online use in WMF projects, which is what VI is about. -- Slaunger 01:44, 10 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support Due to natural causes it will be (nearly) impossible to create a new photograph of subject. I think most people here know that finding free images can be difficult and asking for free licensing is too. Yes the resolution is a bit low, but for this case I am willing too to make an exception. In case a larger free version should be obtained I will vote for that one, but as for the moment this is the best we can get. --EPO 16:04, 11 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
