  • From what I can tell, this is a colourised image. I'd really rather have the original. Compositing is one thing, but colourisation has a lot of copyright issues, as well as accuracy ones. Adam Cuerden (talk)Has about 8% of all FPs 01:07, 2 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • I found two other versions on flickr: [1], [2]. Bammesk (talk) 01:42, 2 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    And also this one. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 04:34, 2 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    • The nom version needs a cleanup, it has lots of small dark spots (visible at full size) on her suit and the background. Also the file page needs to specify the source link (I don't see the nom version on flickr.com). Adam's copyright concern can be cleared at Commons:Village pump/Copyright.

      I don't know how to clean an image, and I'm not on Commons. I have no objection to it being deleted if it is a copvio. @Tdadamemd19: uploaded it and should know where it came from. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 02:47, 3 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
      I can clean it up and place a copyright inquiry on Commons, if/when the nom gets a few support votes. Good composition, but I am concerned about the technical quality of the nom image as well. At full size, her face has better definition in this B&W version. Bammesk (talk) 03:52, 3 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
      Speedy close I am more concerned about the copyright status. I have read through the text and references, and am unconvinced that this qualifies as NASA image. It was photographed for Life magazine although never used. The photographer is dead and the negative is in the hands of a Wikipedian. As the "topic of discussion in the article", it could be uploaded to Wikipedia as Fair Use if it wasn't on Commons. Coordinator: Please withdraw this nomination.
