[edit] District Six Memory Plaque
- Reason
- Of extreme historical importance and encyclopaedic value. A slight quality improvement would be preferable, but the photo is /extremely/ clear, and I don't feel that a higher-resolution photo would add much to it's composition.

- Weak support. Certainly it couldn't fail on #2. A higher res shot wouldn't do anything at all. It's a wonderful image, but I do agree some context would be nice too. (See Image:DurbanSign1989.jpg for example.) └Jared┘┌talk┐ 11:15, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
- oppose it does little to explain the significance of the plaque beyond what a transcription of the text would do, showing it against what ever surface it is on, or its circumstances generally would be better. Debivort 18:52, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

- Oppose per Debivort, and that a zoomed out image, perhaps showing some of the surroundings, would have been more effective. --Phoenix (talk) 07:18, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
- Oppose per Debivort. It adds to the article, but it could add more if it was zoomed out. - Mgm|(talk) 12:21, 7 May 2007 (UTC)
