- Comment. The licence seems a bit uncertain. Stephen Turner 08:40, 14 October 2005 (UTC)
- I was worried about that too, but I decided to take a chance. When I hit the "edit" button the text for the license read {{PD-USGov-NARA}}. I figured that if it said PD it was probably ok; however, I could be wrong about that. TomStar81 20:08, 14 October 2005 (UTC)
- We could confirm if it is PD, but the link is dead... Broken S 00:00, 15 October 2005 (UTC)
- I got it: Click here, then look for link #127. It should read: "127. "The USS ARIZONA burning after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor." December 7, 1941. 80-G-32420." This picture is the one that they link to, although their photo is not as clean as ours. TomStar81 20:55, 15 October 2005 (UTC)

- Support. Great picture and good historical background. User:Joseverde 22:35 15 October 2005 (UTC)
Oppose Good subject matter, but too small - 600 pixels wide just isn't enough --Fir0002 10:22, 16 October 2005 (UTC)
- There is a supersized version of the picture in the archives website if you want a larger shot, but I beleave it will have to be cleaned up some before we vote for it. TomStar81 15:47, 16 October 2005 (UTC)
- Oppose both. If a clearer and less grainy version of the first image could be foung I might support. I don't like the zoomed in one at all. --ScottyBoy900Q∞ 20:00, 16 October 2005 (UTC)
- Oppose. I would have to oppose unfortunately; as Fir0002 said, it's too small. The second one's most unclear. Enochlau 07:47, 17 October 2005 (UTC)
