Oppose Dark and fuzzy, doesn't really show any action. --Janke | Talk 18:51, 10 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose – It isn't sharp for a heavily photographed event. Also the primary article is in flux, so the image isn't necessarily stable there (FP criterion 5). Bammesk (talk) 04:52, 11 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. An important event, certainly one with plenty of encyclopedic value to lend to its images, but I don't think this photo is very informative. The level of quality is unsurprising for impromptu news photography, but an image needs to be sufficiently iconic to rise above that and be featured, and I don't think this one is. —David Eppstein (talk) 23:02, 12 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
