  • Strange date and time... Alvesgaspar 14:27, 11 April 2007 (UTC) [reply]
• Oppose An historical picture I could support, but this photo can be taken by any visiting tourist - therefore it should be an especially good photo. Unfortunately this just doens't have "it". Also, the people are distracting. Could do with a crop too. Witty lama 15:07, 11 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Oppose. Littered with tourists. Pstuart84 Talk 15:56, 11 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • The place has been littered with people since its inception, its like a tradition. The facty that it is so "littered" with people would I think make it more valuable, as it suggests that humanity is beginning to learn something to prevent it from happening again --Hadz^Talk 16:10, 11 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    • Sorry if I caused any offence, I chose my words carelessly. But I think that this photo could benefit from better composition; it's a snapshot, albeit of a site with enormous significance. Pstuart84 Talk 16:28, 11 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
      • Don't worry about it. If somebody could photoshop it perhaps? --Hadz^Talk 17:30, 11 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Oppose Very feature-worthy subject, but the picture doesn't do it justice. ~ trialsanderrors 17:49, 11 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Oppose, per above. "High resolution" and "high quality" don't go hand-in-hand. -Phoenix 20:36, 11 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Nobody said it did, but you have to admit, the grey clouds sum up the mood of that place. --Hadz^Talk 22:58, 11 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Weak Oppose There's nothing horribly wrong with this, but I don't think it's feature worthy. Ishaana 13:25, 12 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Weak oppose I don't really mind the tourists so much as to the quality of the pic. It's high-res, but not very sharp. Very important piece of history though. Will support if a sharper version can be found or taken. Jumping cheese ^Cont@ct 20:28, 12 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
