- Oppose – Target article is a 35-word fragment of a stub: Not enough with which to construct a reasonably informative copy block. – Sca (talk) 13:56, 4 January 2024 (UTC)
- The whole point of an encyclopaedia is that people can find hard-to-find information, in this case an image. The rarer the subject, the more important it is to have an image. With rare animals, so little is known about them that many articles are stubs. I don't see the relevance of being able to construct a copy block. Is that a new FP criteria?

- To @Sca 's point this bird doesn't appear to be very rare a quick google search yielded me hundreds of similar images and a depth of information. Personally I think this images artistic value is being given priority over its EV but I could be mistaken. similar images ZombiUwU (💬 ~♥~ 📝) 20:13, 5 January 2024 (UTC)
- Not sure about his, but I'd guess the main-pagers would be unlikely to to go to a non-Wiki source for info. But if our article were expanded, that would be a different story. -- Sca (talk) 13:48, 6 January 2024 (UTC)

- Support. I added a bit to the article; there is information out there, though often in antpitta surveys such as the two articles I cited. "Slate-crowned" appears to be the more common name. blameless 18:31, 5 January 2024 (UTC)
- Support - After further consideration, I decided to support this as it is of high quality and it is one of the better images of this bird.
This image is only present on one stub class article with low priority. It's a very good-looking image but not a particularly technically challenging image and has hundreds of similar examples.-- ZombiUwU (💬 ~♥~ 📝) 20:17, 5 January 2024 (UTC)
