- Oppose I don't like the fact that the picture doesn't have a background. Looks a little weird to me. --Երևանցի talk 16:31, 16 October 2013 (UTC)
- That's what many of promotional portraits have. A plain background makes the subject stand out better. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 22:42, 16 October 2013 (UTC)
- I'd like to see a portrait with no background that was promoted as a featured picture. --Երևանցի talk 22:56, 16 October 2013 (UTC)
- File:Katie Green, Nikon Solutions Expo, 2008 (crop).jpg, File:Julie Delpy 02.jpg, File:Grant, Cary (Suspicion) 01 Crisco edit.jpg, File:Robert Sheehan MingFilmFest 2011.jpg, File:LG 시네마 3D TV 새 모델 ‘소녀시대’ 영입.jpg, File:Louis Armstrong restored.jpg... there's six, just from the entertainers category. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:08, 16 October 2013 (UTC)
- The only one comparable to this pic is Cary Grant's, however, Grant's suit is black, which makes a lot of difference. In this pic, Muhammad Ali clothes are white and it is difficult to see with that background. Simple. --Երևանցի talk 23:17, 16 October 2013 (UTC)
- Ever hear of moving the bar? — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:24, 16 October 2013 (UTC)
- No, I have never heard that phrase. Is this like an interrogation? Why do you feel the need to confront anyone who doesn't think like you? I clearly stated why I oppose. --Երևանցի talk 23:30, 16 October 2013 (UTC)
- Moving the goalposts might enlighten you. You asked a question, I answered. That is not "confrontation" — Crisco 1492 (talk) 03:12, 17 October 2013 (UTC)
- I'd like to see ... has an implicit question attached: could you show me? Responding to reviewers concerns is part of a nomination. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 03:24, 17 October 2013 (UTC)
