OriginalFrench battleship Justice in 1909, near New York City
Reason
Rather high quality, high resolution photograph that I have restored with way more care than I probably needed to get away with it. The extreme left side was particularly damaged, and it would, of course be insane to not just crop it. It would take days of work, probably well over ten, fifteen hours on a less than 500px wide strip of an over 9000px wide image.
So here's a comparison of the extreme left hand side before and after, with a scrollbar so you can go up and down1
Before After
This is an example of bragging, and could potentially be added to that article.

  • Comment - This could be downsampled to half size without loss of detail. Looks almost upsampled at the moment... --Janke | Talk 13:20, 26 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Perhaps, but it's explicitly discouraged to do so, and you can do much more precise restoration if you don't. Adam Cuerden (talk)Has about 8.5% of all FPs. 14:31, 26 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    I mean after the restoration, of course... Janke | Talk 17:57, 26 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    I mean, you could downscale the restoration, but you could also just use the thumbnail generator to downscale it for download (at least, when they're working properly), so I'm not sure there's any substantial point to it.

    How about using the Template:Tall image in the nom to reduce the display height of the samples? Bammesk (talk) 01:43, 27 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
