- Oppose - Too small. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 15:14, 20 February 2015 (UTC)
- Oppose. Too small, but also I must say, the white balance seems completely wrong and it looks very atypical of a blue tongued lizard too. I might've lived in the UK for a while but they are pretty common in Australia and I used have one of these as a 'pet' when I was younger. They are not so yellowy-cream. They also have a distinctive camouflage pattern and this one seems to be missing it entirely (at least what we can see in the photo). There is some variance from region to region, anything from almost black to red-cream I believe, but I've never seen one completely missing the pattern as this one seems to be. It could be albino or something, but shouldn't be the lead image in the article without an explanation. this or this looks much more typical of the species.

- This one wishes he had a camouflage pattern and is green with envy of those that do. Sca (talk) 15:12, 21 February 2015 (UTC)
