  • Support Excellent clarity, and unusual for an FP to be at night (in my experience) so really stands out nicely... The darkness around it seems to enhance the quality of the stonework IMO... gazhiley 16:15, 4 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Per gazhiley. Excellent! Dusty777 02:06, 5 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • Regretful Oppose Huh? Why? The scaffolding. I assume it was there on a temporary basis, and it not part of the building. It is a great photo, but should not be hard to retake it once the building is as it is supposed to be. --WingtipvorteX PTT 20:42, 8 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment the building is probably not going to be ever again as it was "supposed to be". Scaffolding is normal part of its present appearance. Just check out the image galleries. --ELEKHHT 23:58, 9 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Of course it is not, I never said that. I said image should be how it is now. Is the scaffolding part of its present appearance? If it is, then I'll reconsider. But I need to see something more than pictures to tell me it is permanent. Scaffoldings serve no permanent purpose. If the building is falling down, then supports are added. --WingtipvorteX PTT 04:15, 10 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose per Wingtipvortex. This photo was taken in 2010. According to what I'm reading from news sources, the scaffolding should be long gone. --Pine 00:38, 9 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose as the scaffolding detracts from the EV. -- King of ♠ 08:32, 9 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose per Wingtipvortex. Mediran talk|contribs 10:00, 9 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - EV may be restored if there is discussion of the renovations(?) in the article. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:41, 9 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
It might be. Image is not in this section however. Even then, the scaffolding is not prominent in this image. --WingtipvorteX PTT 04:15, 10 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • Regretful Oppose No way this is going to pass now. Dusty777 22:21, 10 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment It still has the scaffholding as of 3 days ago. I was there when I was 5 years old and it was covered in scaffolding, it still is today, and I'm sure it will be still when we're all old retirees. Benjamint 13:19, 11 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
It does appear to still be there... I see no problem with the EV now. Dusty777 19:15, 11 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not seeing scaffolding in the photo that's in that article. Please link to the photo that shows the scaffolding. Thanks, --Pine 06:49, 12 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
