Comment Come on people, wake up! There are only 12 photos in this category. It will takes no more than a minute to review this image ;)--MrPanyGoff (talk) 12:04, 6 December 2010 (UTC)
Comment Even though there are not many images, they are hard to compare because they were taken at various points in the life of Sophia Loren and are quite different. I don't know which is most valued. File:Five Miles to Midnight 1962.JPG and File:SophiaLorenAAFeb09.jpg are used by more articles, but neither is geocoded although the second could be easily geocoded.[1]Walter Siegmund(talk) 15:55, 7 December 2010 (UTC)
Support Difficult choice. This one is geocoded, and is quite good. Yann (talk) 09:55, 14 December 2010 (UTC)
Oppose Sorry, but we have color photos from similar period person. (Like this one on the right)

I'd give preference to that one. PhotoGenIc (talk) 18:30, 14 December 2010 (UTC)
Comment I'm not sure that I agree that the 2009 photograph is from a similar period as the nominated 1986 photograph. Walter Siegmund(talk) 23:29, 14 December 2010 (UTC)
Sorry, I meant person not period. The perdiod is different of course . What I meant is if there is a good quality B/W and good quiality color pic - I'd prefer color as it's better reflects the subject and gives additional detils which are not available in b/w picture. (Of course BW art is a separate topic, but for valued image I'd choose the one that have more information (color) than another one without (b/w). Sorry - just my 2c.

But we have no good color pics of Loren in the proper age as in the nominated one. The color pics you suggest are more or less inappropriate for representative photos, imo.--MrPanyGoff (talk) 23:16, 15 December 2010 (UTC)
Comment We have here very good studio portrait of the 52 years old Sophia Loren in the peak of her maturity. I cannot believe that we discuss some accidental public photos of Loren (no matter colour or not) when she is 75 years old!?!? I think that, as a rule, if we have to choose only one image of notable persons it should be exactly from their "high time", not the teenage years and not in theirs old age. Furthermore, for eminent people with long career, there should be three different categories with VI in each of them - 1. At an early youth, 2. Maturity, 3. Old age. But this could be applied if there are plenty of photos from each period.--MrPanyGoff (talk) 09:27, 15 December 2010 (UTC)
It was just my opinion - in no way I wanted to upset you as an author. I agree with the suggestion about three periods. We can suggest this new rule and once passed we can judge by it. But until then... sorry. PhotoGenIc (talk) 22:35, 15 December 2010 (UTC)
I'm just a nominator ;) The author is Allan Warren.--MrPanyGoff (talk) 23:03, 15 December 2010 (UTC)
Support It think one is the best for main scope because it is from near the middle of her life, i.e., not young and not old. Also, it is of high quality and is geocoded. --Walter Siegmund(talk) 23:37, 15 December 2010 (UTC)
