- Reason
- High quality scan of a piece of newspaper art. The murder of Wang Lianying, a famed courtesan, captured imaginations in Shanghai, and the case was even reported in the international press. This image, which accompanied coverage of the trial in the New York Tribune, illustrates that international coverage; it also provides an early example of artwork by Jefferson Machamer, who developed a reputation for depicting glamourous women.

- Comment – Too soon? The image was put in the article yesterday. I think it will be stable so,
conditionalSupport, assuming it's stable at the end of this nomination. Bammesk (talk) 20:02, 26 October 2024 (UTC)- Considering the murder article didn't exist until yesterday (was moved to main space, drafted starting two days ago), I don't think it violates the spirit of the stability criterion. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 20:04, 26 October 2024 (UTC)
- Agree. I don't see the image being removed. I struck the "conditional" part of my vote. Bammesk (talk) 20:28, 26 October 2024 (UTC)
