 * question I like this image, but voters here seem to only like images that are the main one in the article. Charlesjsharp (talk) 21:48, 6 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Admittedly, I'm coming back after a six-month absence, but historically, being further down hasn't been a problem as long as the image is significant to or in some way uniquely illustrates the subject. Take Aida (opera), which has - if I'm counting right - five separate featured pictures, each illustrating a different aspect. Adam Cuerden (talk) 01:24, 7 June 2017 (UTC)
 * I've never expressed such a view. Mind, the headshot is great in this case, but unless we get a bigger version it's not FP-able. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 07:19, 7 June 2017 (UTC)
 * It was the comments (not yours Chris) on this candidate that prompted my comment. Charlesjsharp (talk) 14:43, 7 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Josh was talking about the use of the image in a gallery; that's quite a bit different than having running text illustrated by an image. Use in galleries tends not to be considered enough EV for FP. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 00:29, 8 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Suggest add year (1969) to caption. Sca (talk) 22:14, 6 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Done, though, of course, User:Crisco 1492 doesn't use the captions here for writing the POTD things. Adam Cuerden (talk) 01:25, 7 June 2017 (UTC)
 * I do sometimes. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 07:19, 7 June 2017 (UTC)

 * Support – Marvellous Spider-Man  12:16, 9 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Support. Meaningful and historical significance. --Gnosis (talk) 20:16, 7 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Support. Historically important. --Janke | Talk 07:25, 9 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Support This is a great photo with strong EV: as well as showing Hamiliton's achievement in an interesting way, it also depicts how young she was for this role. Nick-D (talk) 11:34, 9 June 2017 (UTC)
 * How old were programmers in this era? I would be surprised if 33 wasn't a common age. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 14:28, 9 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Not sure, but to be a team leader for an important part of a flagship national project in a major (and rather hierarchical) agency it seems pretty young, especially for a woman in the 1960s. Nick-D (talk) 23:30, 9 June 2017 (UTC)
 * True. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 00:47, 10 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Support as above. Josh Milburn (talk) 00:33, 13 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Support - escapes me why I didn't already. Atsme 📞📧 21:19, 13 June 2017 (UTC)
