@Joofjoof: I edited both images of the Contempra before spotting this DYK nomination. I hope that's okay. When I removed the backgrounds I also removed the cords, which looked pretty generic. Let me know if you'd prefer to see the cords. Given the choice of the two images you may want to consider using File:Contempra phone open.jpg for the DYK, as it shows the handset-mounted dial. Also, if you need any images improving in future to bring them up to DYK standards feel free to post a request on my talk page. Regards, nagualdesign 12:27, 31 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

@Nagualdesign: Thank you for these new edits! The photos work better here with a plain background instead of the blurred background. I have added the second image here for the promoter's convenience. Joofjoof (talk) 23:33, 31 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

TV mentions?

I don't know if the "celebrity sightings" is passe, but there's a whole lot of Contempra phones in For all Mankind. Pretty much every desktop phone is one, especially the swamp green variety. Maury Markowitz (talk) 16:29, 8 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
