Infobox Image[edit]

Consensus appears to be against using this image. However, there may be potential to include it as an additional image if the article is expanded sufficiently. Number 5 7 10:45, 13 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I propose we use this high resolution aerial image of the dam in the infobox instead as it shows the reservoir too.

Support as nominator. Ali Fazal (talk) 14:58, 6 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose, barely. Lighting is not good on the proposed dam photo and you can hardly make out the face, especially in the thumbnail format. I think the angle is better and you can see much more of the reservour but there is too much of a shadow on the dam which is the subject.--NortyNort (Holla) 13:52, 7 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Meh. Do we really need a RfC on this. Just show both. Darx9url (talk) 05:34, 11 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. Current image is fine. I might support adding an additional image (like this one) if the nominator would focus more on sourcing and expanding this unreferenced stub. Please prioritize your tasks. A new or additional image is not needed; you need actual references and content. Viriditas (talk) 04:26, 13 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Per NortyNort Dam is the primary subject and existing photo is better. --Molestash (talk) 10:46, 13 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per NortyNort. I appreciate that the new photo shows the reservoir, but the current photo shows the dam much more clearly. The rocks in the foreground of the new image are also somewhat distracting. —Granger (talk · contribs) 22:12, 20 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Uninvolved editor called here by a bot. The photo already in the article is much better as it has less shadow. AlbinoFerret 23:37, 26 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
