- Reason
- It's just not a very good photo. The pose is awkward, its heavily damaged, it's a scaled-down copy... I think having this as a featured image is, if anything, hampering any possibility of getting a better image of Grant into articles. It's just not very good.
- Articles this image appears in

- Delist - I'm not sure about the argument that we can't get a better copy while this one is up, though. It seems we have D&R noms all the time... Samsara (FA • FP) 14:57, 25 October 2014 (UTC)
- Oh, I've actually done most of a Grant restoration, but it won't "stick" in the article, and I can't help but think that this having FP is part of that. Adam Cuerden (talk) 17:00, 25 October 2014 (UTC)
