- Comment Would it be possible to get a higher resolution version? This is worth a restoration, but the current file is too compressed to really work on. DurovaCharge! 18:33, 22 January 2009 (UTC)
- Comment The copyright mark in the middle, although likely historic, would have to be removed to satisfy FP requirements. Papa Lima Whiskey (talk) 11:12, 23 January 2009 (UTC)
- FP requirements are that the image not be under copyright. They don't specifically require the removal of expired copyright marks, although I doubt this image at its current resolution would qualify on other grounds. DurovaCharge! 03:26, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
- Comment Have located another file of the subject. Not exactly the same shot; the field. If anyone want to share work on the restoration and conominate, please leave word. Strong stomach required: they hadn't cleared the bodies yet. DurovaCharge! 08:42, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
