  • Oppose: I believe it is a credible source but it is not enough to be deemable featurable. kdm85
  • This strikes me as an interesting 'news' photo, but I can see little EV to be honest. I don't think it's a good enough photo of either of them to be featured in isolation, which means it would have to be featured for the meeting. But what was the purpose of the meeting? Did the meeting lead to a change in Nixon's policies? Did it revolutionise Elvis' music? It seems to me like a general interest photo, but not anything significant beyond that, and I would therefore feel not really meeting the FPC aims of high EV. --jjron (talk) 13:27, 14 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
