• Support of course. Just a question: per the caption, was it made on 1791-12-06, or in 1206 AD? :) Intothewoods29 ( talk) 23:25, 13 September 2008 (UTC) reply
• Weak Support I think it was created in 1206 and published in 1791 according to this [1]. The edges are a little beat up. -- Uncle Bungle ( talk) 00:48, 14 September 2008 (UTC) reply
• Comment 99% sure they mean 1206 AH/1791 AD. Calliopejen1 ( talk) 00:58, 14 September 2008 (UTC) reply
  • Yes, different calendars. Durova ^Charge! 01:01, 14 September 2008 (UTC) reply
    • Please update the caption accordingly :-) -- Uncle Bungle ( talk) 01:42, 14 September 2008 (UTC) reply
      • Done. :) Durova ^Charge! 04:03, 14 September 2008 (UTC) reply

• Support for EV and something different from the usual. Muhammad (talk) 08:20, 14 September 2008 (UTC) reply
• Oppose - big and with great EV, but JPG artifacting spoils it for me. — Vanderdecken∴ ∫ ξ φ 11:00, 14 September 2008 (UTC) reply
• Support A little artifact-y, but still good. Since this is a non-Christian document, should we use CE instead of AD? ( MOS has no preference.)-- HereToHelp ^{( talk to me)} 11:23, 14 September 2008 (UTC) reply

How about put CE in brackets? Pie is good ^{(Apple is the best)} 13:24, 14 September 2008 (UTC) reply

That would work if we wanted to be clear. My point is that I don't want to reference Jesus regarding a a non-Christian image. It just seems more neutral.-- HereToHelp ^{( talk to me)} 22:04, 14 September 2008 (UTC) reply

• Neutral Artifacting and the missing lower right corner don't allow me to support. Spencer ^{T♦ C} 23:02, 14 September 2008 (UTC) reply
• Weak support. The image is large enough that it can be downscaled enough to make artifacts disappear and still be plenty big.-- ragesoss ( talk) 02:06, 18 September 2008 (UTC) reply
• Support. EV, sufficient quality at reasonable resolutions. And it's interesting of course too! Mostlyharmless ( talk) 06:02, 18 September 2008 (UTC) reply
