  • Support – prefer cropped version. Good restoration. Looking at google images here is there a better image with a suitable copyright license? . . . . I did some checking and couldn't find any. Bammesk (talk) 18:42, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Shouldn't crop someone else's image. Charlesjsharp (talk) 17:18, 31 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    @Charlesjsharp: Can you clarify? File:Antônio_Carlos_Jobim_(cropped).jpg was cropped at its initial upload and is the image which is used on most wiki pages. I restored the uncropped version. What do you mean by "someone else's image". The image is in public domain. — PerfectSoundWhatever (t; c) 18:45, 31 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    A photograph is a work of art. You wouldn't crop The Mona Lisa and so I don't believe it is good practice to crop others' photos. Cropping for specific uses like a newspaper is fine, but not for an encyclopaedia. Charlesjsharp (talk) 19:31, 31 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    We're an encyclopaedia, not an archival site or an art gallery, so if deadspace is making the encyclopedic value of an image worse, yes, I think we should crop it. What extra value does the shoulder provide? — PerfectSoundWhatever (t; c) 19:54, 31 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
