This is a enchanced version of the Abbott Photo can it remain on Abbbott's page?
Can this photo of Tony Abbott be the standard photo now--~~Celco85~~ —Preceding unsigned comment added by Celco85 (talk • contribs)
You ignored the script that someone left stating <!--Do not change image without gaining consensus for such change on talk page.-->. Someone obviously left that for a reason because this has obviously been a contentious issue in the past. Now down to your image. It isn't enhanced as it changes his hair colour.

Ok i am sorry i was quick to change the photo can this version of the photo remain though?
The adjustments you've made to lighten the photo have had the effect of lightening his hair to a different shade than it was (before he started to go grey in any case). I think that's an issue. TarnishedPathtalk13:43, 30 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
Use It is the current one in use, but this should be an established consensus. I believe official portraits should be used on all politicians and world leaders if available mainly because there are going to be many pictures of world leaders and politicians, whereas there is generally only one portrait. Although there could be different ones for different terms of Australian Parliament, the United States Congress, the British Parliament, Lok Sahba ETC, but I believe these articles InfoBox photo should always be a portrait if possible.

This doesn't look like consensus to me. Let's move it back to the one that we've had for years and discuss any changes. --Pete (talk) 00:37, 3 April 2026 (UTC)Reply
