 * Oppose, low EV. We have stronger images already used in the infobox in the article. J Milburn (talk) 13:29, 10 August 2010 (UTC)
 * I disagree, an image of an article's subject, which this is, definitely has EV, but if J Milburn prefers the current image, then I hope it's ok if I just add it. Support both/either, pref. ALT because that one seems to show a mature of each gender whereas the original still looks like it's not fully aged. -- I'ḏ ♥  One  00:35, 11 August 2010 (UTC)
 * So a hundred images of a Tufted Duck, all showing pretty much the same thing, all have EV? Right. Encyclopedic value is about how much an image adds to the article- when we already have a stronger image showing the same thing, a new image often adds nothing. Yes, if the other two didn't exist and this was the only image we had of the species, it would have EV. As it is, it doesn't. J Milburn (talk) 22:28, 11 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Oppose on the criteria currently in place. Its not the best image for illustrating the species, as it only shows the male.  The other picture in the article showing both the male and female is better to illustrate the species.  Canada Hky (talk) 14:40, 13 August 2010 (UTC)
