- Support Lovely photochrom with clear EV, would be good to be prominently placed in the photoschrom article as you can really see the process in action, so to speak. On a side note I can't help wondering how the original colours actually appeared, both at the time of printing and at present day. --mikaultalk 00:08, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
- Weak Support for EV in History of Belfast. A better caption or image description would help the EV in the Ulster article. How does this show industrialization, for example. The article mentions dockyards and shipbuilding, which clearly aren't present here. The EV is there, it just needs more exposition, I suppose. Makeemlighter (talk) 07:54, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
- Support, but my question from the Dunleary nom above stands here as well. Are the letters in the bottom left necessary to maintain EV/copyright/etc? They seem distracting, to me at least. Staxringold talkcontribs 20:09, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
