Oppose — I have to oppose featuring a photograph of a subject that is completely counter to how the subject perceives herselve. Especially since the availability of File:Chelsea Manning on 18 May 2017.jpg which I support as an ALT. --- Coffeeandcrumbs 17:52, 25 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per Coffeeandcrumbs. —David Eppstein (talk) 18:13, 25 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose (both). In addition to the issue of disrespect, it's a rather bland posed photograph. No strong opinion on the alt right now, but as it's a completely different picture used in a different way, I think it should nominated separately. Josh Milburn (talk) 19:03, 25 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Pardon me? Disrespect? Did I even refer to her as Bradley Manning?, In 2012 whether you like it or not she was still male. She no longer is now. Never meant disrespect. --TheMistfan (talk) 19:17, 25 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't mean to accuse you of behaving disrespectfully; if that was suggested by what I wrote, then I should have been clearer. Josh Milburn (talk) 21:01, 25 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose the original per Coffeeandcrumbs and per the point that, well, it's a rather bland posed photograph. The second is better — it's at least "author photo on book jacket" instead of "Department of Motor Vehicles", metaphorically speaking — but maybe it should be nominated separately.
