Comment Interesting but limited EV in the articles. Charlesjsharp (talk) 12:58, 6 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Didn't know it was cropped. Charlesjsharp (talk) 21:37, 6 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment – Lacks gravitas. EV doubtful. – Sca (talk) 13:51, 6 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Crops out the caption (where the joke is), and edges. No real need to not show the full page, for that matter. Also, kind of bluish. Adam Cuerden ^(talk)_{Has about 8.9% of all FPs.} 17:48, 6 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support Alt 1 and Alt 2 – for use in (EV) Grover Cleveland 1884 presidential campaign. Bammesk (talk) 00:57, 11 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The Alt is absolutely loaded with JPEG artefacts, though. Should probably grab one from the LoC TIFF. Adam Cuerden ^(talk)_{Has about 8.9% of all FPs.} 16:11, 12 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Good catch. I missed that. The LOC original is much better. It needs a bit of touching up. I can get it in the next day or two, if you Adam or FatCat96 don't do it first. ~~I changed my vote to Conditional support for now.~~ Bammesk (talk) 01:11, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I uploaded and changed the Alt version. It is now a restoration from the original LoC TIFF. Pinging participants @FatCat96, Adam Cuerden, Moonreach, and Vinícius94:. Bammesk (talk) 02:56, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose, I fear: Colours are clearly highly changed by paper yellowing. I've done some experiments, and - while it would need a ton of edge cleanup due to vignetting at the edges, a simple bracketing of R G and B individually, setting white and black to maximum and minimum with content, gives highly believable colours Adam Cuerden ^(talk)_{Has about 8.9% of all FPs.} 04:45, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you and nice restoration. I've been so busy lately, I haven't had much time to restore anything. Also, GIMP has suddenly stopped working for me, and I'm trying to figure out how to fix it. I hope to get back to restoring more images once everything is resolved. 🐱FatCat96🐱 Chat with Cat 16:52, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Adam, that's a support from me for Alt 2, as well as any other version you might upload. Let me know if a PNG version of 'Alt 1' can be of any use to you and I will upload it. Thanks for your input and your work. Bammesk (talk) 01:19, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I suppose I can Support Alt 2. Probably too late for the upload of the PNG, though: I'd have to restart work. Adam Cuerden ^(talk)_{Has about 8.9% of all FPs.} 18:49, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
