~~Keep~~ - We haven't historically delisted FPs for simple number of pixels, and we certainly shouldn't hold a ten-year-old FP to today's standards for pixel count. Short of actually having a higher resolution version available, I don't think we should delist for that reason. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 04:53, 9 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delist, possibly replace @Crisco 1492: However, we have delisted for having a far better quality one available. This is a low-quality, blurry hackjob of File:Chateauwood.jpg. Adam Cuerden ^(talk) 11:47, 9 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Problem with that image is that the source is incorrect; that's not the same version on the War Memorial's webpage. But it's enough to knock out my "keep" — Chris Woodrich (talk) 12:04, 9 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  - @Crisco 1492: Checking the history, that source seems to have been "helpfully" added after the fact by someone. Adam Cuerden ^(talk) 12:37, 9 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    - Either way, we still need a ref. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 13:51, 9 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Comment, leaning delist This is one of the iconic images of the Australian Imperial Force (Australia's main combat force of World War I), which helps to explain why it's so heavily used. But I agree that this version isn't of FP standard in isolation. Nick-D (talk) 11:55, 11 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delist and replace, if possible. --Tremonist (talk) 12:38, 11 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delist. I think I may personally disagree with the consensus view about delisting old FPs, but, here, that's a moot point, as better is possible. Josh Milburn (talk) 19:58, 11 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delist and replace, if possible. --Hafspajen (talk) 21:01, 12 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
