District Six Memory Plaque

 * Reason:Of extreme historical importance and encyclopaedic value. A slight quality improvement would be preferable, but the photo is /extremely/ clear, and I don't feel that a higher-resolution photo would add much to it's composition.
 * Articles this image appears in:District Six
 * Creator:District Six, Cape Town

 * Comment - I'd argue that it meets the spirit of WP:FP? #2 even if it is missing 100 pixels in width. I don't think a larger photograph would add much, if anything, or know if it'd be readily obtained given the town's regeneration. -Halo 19:15, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment. I have no problem with the resolution but the size of the view. Where exactly is the plaque? How big is it? A zoom out would be nice.--HereToHelp 21:14, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

 * Weak support. Certainly it couldn't fail on #2. A higher res shot wouldn't do anything at all. It's a wonderful image, but I do agree some context would be nice too. (See Image:DurbanSign1989.jpg for example.) └ Jared ┘┌ talk ┐&ensp; 11:15, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
 * oppose it does little to explain the significance of the plaque beyond what a transcription of the text would do, showing it against what ever surface it is on, or its circumstances generally would be better. Debivort 18:52, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Oppose per Debivort. Calliopejen1 20:41, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Oppose per Debivort, and that a zoomed out image, perhaps showing some of the surroundings, would have been more effective. -- Phoenix  (talk) 07:18, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Oppose per Debivort. It adds to the article, but it could add more if it was zoomed out. - Mgm|(talk) 12:21, 7 May 2007 (UTC)
