 * There's a couple of white spots on the wall - far right, near the center. Also, is it just me, the shoddy construction or is the image tilted? MER-C 14:39, 12 May 2019 (UTC)
 * There is tilt but I think there is also a lot of lens distortion (not a high quality lens). This being a historic image or documentary, I am Ok with it as is, rather than modifying it for technical reasons (which would mean cropping the boundary). Support. Bammesk (talk) 17:18, 12 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Given the lamp, which presumably hangs mostly straight from the ceiling, I'm inclined to think there isn't as much tilt as you'd think. Certainly some lens distortion, though possibly exacerbated by a small room requiring a wide angle lens. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Adam Cuerden (talk • contribs)
 * I am somewhat concerned that the tilt and lens distortion detracts from the EV - it can be confused with the floor not being level in reality. MER-C 16:33, 13 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Not much that can be done, though, and the light fixture kind of hints to me that the image is less tilted than you'd think, as the wood beam next to it is tilted relative to it. The buildings were demolished after WWII. Adam Cuerden (talk)Has about 6.5% of all FPs 16:13, 14 May 2019 (UTC)

 * Support rectified version that I just uploaded. Revert if you don't like it - but note that very little of the edges were lost in the fix. --Janke | Talk 23:01, 14 May 2019 (UTC)
 * I can live with that. Adam Cuerden (talk)Has about 6.5% of all FPs 23:18, 14 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Also ok with me. If it were my own photo I would have done that as a matter of course, and I don't think the sloppiness of the original framing has much EV in itself. —David Eppstein (talk) 01:52, 15 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Support now that my concerns have been addressed. MER-C 14:19, 15 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Comment – the file size is reduced too much (now 570KB, it was 2.31MB), could you upload a larger file? Bammesk (talk) 01:47, 17 May 2019 (UTC)
 * To be fair, I save at 99/100 on the JPEG quality scale - above Photoshop's highest setting. I would prefer to have it done from the PNG version and uploaded as PNG as well, but my JPEGs are at the "ridiculous" level. Adam Cuerden (talk)Has about 6.5% of all FPs 02:08, 17 May 2019 (UTC)
