Comment Needs a bit of restoration (white specks & scratches). Janke | Talk 08:03, 8 March 2023 (UTC)
@Crisco 1492:@Vinícius94: Thanks for your comments, I've done a bit of restoration work by removing the white dots and the scratch. I uploaded the new version, but I realize I uploaded it to the original file instead of under a new filename- sorry about that. I hope it's good now. MyCatIsAChonk (talk) 14:08, 9 March 2023 (UTC)

  • Strong oppose the last (9 March 2023) version. Please compare the original (Sep 2020) version with the last (9 March 2023) version. Everything in the image has become pixelated and the whole face changed (I suppose this is an AI regeneration), and curiously the eyes gained colour. Please note that the face in the original photo is out of focus (the focus is on his elbow and vaguely on the score) and this can't be restored. I would rather support the original version, even if technically not perfect. Also, per Commons overwriting rules the crop should be loaded on a separate file. --Lion-hearted85 (talk) 11:46, 10 March 2023 (UTC)

Thanks to everyone for the comments- I hadn't noticed the coloring change after exporting it, I don't know what happened; my knowledge in photo restoration is limited. I'm suspending this nomination for now and will renominate it once I've fixed the problems. MyCatIsAChonk (talk) 17:07, 10 March 2023 (UTC)

@Lion-hearted85, Crisco 1492, Janke, and Vinícius94: Thank you again for your initial comments and reviews. I've since uploaded a new restoration attempt and I'm removing it from suspension. My main changes were removing the two major scratches and removing some white specs. Thoughts on the new version? MyCatIsAChonk (talk) 01:45, 11 March 2023 (UTC)
