- Info It's probably worth mentioning here that the photographer's stamp was - at a guess - an actual stamp in this case. Hence it being placed in a location where the inclusion of it severely hurt the composition of the image. I don't like removing such things (hence why a with-stamp alternative exists) , but I think, for useability, this version is easily superior, and it's not so much of a loss as to justify keeping it. Oh, and Ikan Kekek? 3.75 x 5.5 in before crop. Adam Cuerden (talk) 17:21, 27 December 2018 (UTC)

- Oppose Cannot support removal of stamp. Charles (talk) 21:03, 27 December 2018 (UTC)
- @Charlesjsharp: Honestly, I was pretty sure it was going to happen whatever I did, so I figured I may as well make sure it's done well, y'know? Adam Cuerden (talk) 23:26, 27 December 2018 (UTC)

- Support - I actually think the photographer's stamp doesn't damage the composition, and it's beautiful, so I'd support that version as an alternate if you give it as one. But I'll support this one, too. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 02:36, 28 December 2018 (UTC)
- Comment Think about it... We should not be altering a historical document. It will bring Wikipedia into disrepute. Charles (talk) 11:03, 28 December 2018 (UTC)
- Is this Wikipedia all of a sudden? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 11:29, 28 December 2018 (UTC)
- The restoration is well documented so that shouldn't be a problem. We are not altering historical originals but merely providing additional, improved (i.e. restored) versions which users can freely choose among. --Martin Falbisoner (talk) 11:48, 28 December 2018 (UTC)
