 * Support as nominator --Yann (talk) 14:01, 21 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Oppose the subject is hard to identify facing in that direction. Foldedwater (talk) 17:04, 21 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Well, the subject if the crowd ready to walk 350 km to Delhi. It is so obvious that you can't have the speaker's face and the public at the same time. Yann (talk) 08:24, 22 September 2010 (UTC)
 * True, but that doesn't mean we have to accept a photo of him taken of the back of his head... gaz hiley .co.uk  09:54, 22 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Canceling my oppose above since the setting has been changed as well. Now is not a picture of a man but a picture of that movement and that meeting and in that case that is maybe a good picture. When I voted it was presented as a picture of the man and for that it is certainly not a good one. Foldedwater (talk) 15:58, 22 September 2010 (UTC)


 * Comment: I'm not really getting this, could we perhaps have some further explanation? Surely the highest EV would be in Janadesh 2007, but you haven't mentioned that? J Milburn (talk) 22:36, 21 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes, right. I added this. Yann (talk) 08:26, 22 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Oppose per Foldedwater -- mcshadypl T C  02:05, 22 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Oppose perhaps VP-worthy. Nergaal (talk) 02:30, 22 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Oppose: Hard to see the EV here for any of the articles where the image is used. You can't see the speaker's face so none there. You can't tell anything about what Ekta Parishad stands for or its history. It gives a vague idea how many people attended Janadesh 2007 but nothing about its significance. The only thing that tells you the picture is noteworthy is the caption.--RDBury (talk) 12:14, 23 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment I just added this to Public speaking, if that makes a difference for anyone's !vote. I'm not really convinced it's feature-worthy, but this improves its EV. (Though there might be other, better public speaking photos floating around elsewhere.) Calliopejen1 (talk) 14:48, 24 September 2010 (UTC)
