Original – George Juskalian in military uniform
Reason
The quality is great. It is directly from the archives of the Juskalian family. I believe it is a great fit for a man that is not very known but has achieved so much. For the record, the article along with its picture also appeared on DYK on 6 May 2013 and the picture has been enlarged and the quality is still retained.

  • Question I disagree that an enlarged image retains "quality"; I'm assuming by enlarged you mean the original 900x1300 image was resized to 1500x2167? (Also note that the enlarged image has a smaller file size than the original.) Are you able to request a larger, original scan of the image? I will only support if a larger, non-enlarged version can be obtained. – Kerαunoςcopiagalaxies 22:03, 16 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Well I can always ask the family to rescan. However, I still believe the quality of this photograph is this FP worthy. Proudbolsahye (talk) 22:08, 16 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
My biggest concern is the grain. If you can get a rescan, I don't see why this image wouldn't be FP worthy. – Kerαunoςcopiagalaxies 22:12, 16 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
"Grain" is not an issue of the enlargement. It would be there regardless due to the scan. Proudbolsahye (talk) 22:22, 16 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Well I may be in the minority, but I'm still curious if the family would allow a larger scan. – Kerαunoςcopiagalaxies 02:40, 17 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Grain doesn't seem like an issue for me. The quality is still good.--Chauahuasachca (talk) 17:50, 17 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
