 * Articles in which this image appears:Nuristanis, Siah-Posh Kafirs, others
 * FP category for this image:People/Others (possibly)
 * Creator:Barbara Millucci


 * Support as nominator – Brandmeistertalk  22:30, 17 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Oppose Awkward lighting angle. --Janke | Talk 08:43, 18 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Oppose - Lighting is quite bad. Shadows cover half her face... Mattximus (talk) 15:31, 18 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Weak support – Agree the lighting is less than ideal, but facial detail is excellent and the photo has a rather spontaneous feel to it. Sca (talk) 20:45, 18 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Oppose. I'm not really sure I see the EV, here; the whole nomination strikes me as a bit weird. Josh Milburn (talk) 15:56, 19 June 2016 (UTC)
 * My guess is it's an effort to highlight an obscure ethnic group, of which probably few in the West ever have heard. (Would 'woman' perhaps be more appropriate than 'girl' for this person?) Sca (talk) 20:31, 19 June 2016 (UTC)
 * The EV here is the article Nuristanis, with apparent distinguishing features of this girl compared to an average Afghan. Brandmeistertalk  21:45, 19 June 2016 (UTC)
 * "this one is reportedly", "Once again shows how such poor folks", "this girl", "an average Afghan". It's all a bit colonial for me. My oppose stands. Josh Milburn (talk) 07:46, 20 June 2016 (UTC)
 * As a side note, I oppose colonialism, this is purely genetics and natural way of things. Brandmeistertalk  11:22, 21 June 2016 (UTC)


 * Oppose Per other – Jobas (talk) 22:08, 19 June 2016 (UTC)
