Category talk:Memorable photographs

We should add the Soviet flag on Reichstag (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Soviet_Reichstag.gif) into this page, as well as the Mao discourse on Tiannman Square.

How about http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Hindenburg_disaster.png ?

With regard to the picture of the Soveit flag on Reichstag, This version of that picture is featured picture. Wouldn't it be better to use this version on the memorable photograph page? TomStar81 23:31, 16 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

What is the basis for inclusion in this category? Without clear criteria, this category seems to me like a candidate for deletion. -- Jmabel | Talk 00:06, 23 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Pictures that have extremely high recognition AND emotional significance. For example, most people would probably recognize Che Guevara (photo) and it stands as one of the best leftist photos of the centuries. Palm_Dogg 20:44, 24 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

But how is that verfiable? -- Jmabel | Talk 03:32, 29 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Some of them won Pulitzer Prizes, others (Like Che) can be found everywhere. Many of them have their own pages, or are mentioned on the photographer's page as the reason the photographer is famous. I'm trying to add to them though. Let me put it to you this way: if there is a picture which you don't believe should be here, tell me and we'll discuss it.

There are quite a few (eg. the ones surrounding 9/11 terrorists and abu grade) that outside the US arent even known, let alone recognizable, so keeping in mind this is an english language wikipedia and not a US one, i think some should be removed. Philc _T^E_C^I 20:41, 15 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I think 9/11 and Abu Ghraib were pretty well-known world-wide, but were there any particular ones you had in mind? Palm_Dogg 14:53, 2 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The Tom Cruise picture seems highly out of place. I don't think it has anywhere near the cultural or historical significance as the other photographs and I suggest that it be removed from this article.

What about the photograph called "Lunchtime" from 1932 (workers sitting way up high and having lunch)?

This is a dead end, due to the subjective nature of the entry. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 194.112.32.101 (talk • contribs) 21 November 2006.
