• Oppose Its a good image but has no EV in the article. Spongie555 (talk) 04:02, 14 September 2012 (UTC)
  • Because its not lead? Tomer T (talk) 06:32, 14 September 2012 (UTC)
    • Actually after reviewing the article the picture has EV for depicting someone playing a keyboard accordion. So i change my vote to Support. Spongie555 (talk) 05:06, 15 September 2012 (UTC)
• Support As per nom, I am satisfied by the ev for this - shows how an accordian is played, whereas a picture of an accordion on its own doesn't... gazhiley 10:31, 14 September 2012 (UTC)
• Weak Support good image. EV is good in terms of how it is played, but it not being the lead image, I don't feel like giving it a full support vote. --Wingtipvorte^X PTT ∅ 22:05, 14 September 2012 (UTC)
• Support No need for the image to be the lead for it to have EV and be an FP. The article needs an image showing someone playing one, which the lead fails to achieve. As for the picture, its a good one. Colin°^Talk 15:40, 15 September 2012 (UTC)
• Weak support something about the angle of this photo seems strange to me, but I agree that the photo has good EV for the article. Pine^✉ 08:30, 16 September 2012 (UTC)
• Support. The article mentions that the instrument is often used in busking, so EV seems high in that regard. Chick Bowen 18:07, 16 September 2012 (UTC)
• Comment I find his expression quite odd. I thought he was dead or in distress. Saffron Blaze (talk) 23:07, 16 September 2012 (UTC)
  • He's lost in the moment - eyes closed, head back, probably playing a tune that has great importance to him... gazhiley 09:00, 17 September 2012 (UTC)
  • Tomascastelazo says in the Commons FP nomination that he is blind. Tomer T (talk) 09:26, 17 September 2012 (UTC)
    • Ooops - that'll teach me to blindly assume something... gazhiley 10:52, 18 September 2012 (UTC)
      • Support he seems very human. Jkadavoor (talk) 08:51, 19 September 2012 (UTC)
    • Thanks for the explanation. Saffron Blaze (talk) 12:27, 22 September 2012 (UTC)
