- Comment - This file should have some flyspecking done. The image appears to have been quite dirty when it was scanned. I can do it if you want. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 22:59, 13 January 2014 (UTC)
- Sure. Thanks. I can't do that.--Theparties (talk) 23:05, 13 January 2014 (UTC)
- Alright. I should hopefully finish within 24 hours. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 00:17, 14 January 2014 (UTC)
- I have uploaded my restored version over the original one.
- Support: For those who are wondering why there is an American flag here, this photograph was taken while Quezon was leader of the Philippine's government in exile in the United States during World War II. He died two years after this picture was taken. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 04:07, 14 January 2014 (UTC)
- Support When you pixel-peep his forehead there's a white spot which I presume is some kind of error, but that should be easily fixed and isn't visible at sensible resolutions. As the composition is good and the American flag provides extra EV I think that this meets the FP criteria: thank you for nominating it Theparties. Nick-D (talk) 10:59, 14 January 2014 (UTC)
- Fixed. Thanks for the heads up. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 14:14, 14 January 2014 (UTC)
- Support. Love the picture, but the sourcing info's a bit odd; what agency/body/company created this? J Milburn (talk) 21:51, 14 January 2014 (UTC)
- Yeah, the provenance of this image is a little odd here. According to my reading of the LOC page, it was created by the Office of War Information/Farm Security Administration, but their copy of the image was acquired from the Press Association, Incorporated (i.e. not directly from the OWI). Another possibility is that it was taken by the Press Association and then rights were transferred to OWI in 1944. Either way, that should be PD. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:12, 14 January 2014 (UTC)
- It'd be good if you could update the image page- if you're sure it's PD, I'm happy to accept that. J Milburn (talk) 17:12, 15 January 2014 (UTC)
- I've changed the "Author" parameter to OWI. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 20:51, 15 January 2014 (UTC)
