although I was the one who uploaded from the Hawaii archives last week. And looking at the original original, its contrast was not so bad. So something I did in my upload must have made it worse. Maybe my monitor was badly adjusted. Why not just put the dust cleared version into the old name, so the

On
Commons, one is stepped through a process where you are eventually taken to a template that makes the violet-colored (“Description”, “Date” biz). One is supposed to fill in some blanks with one’s username, etc. I probably wasn’t careful and accidentally made two fields into a single, nonsense
233:
Let’s see if we can get one or two more editors who think this is FP material if the dust & scratches are fixed. It took me only 7 minutes to fix the contrast and brightness, re-upload the image, and come here and post that I did so. Dust & scratches typically takes much longer—for me,

Yes, and the diacritic is corect in the caption too (long "a"). Looks like someone changed all the references to add the "dust" suffix to the articles? Is that the usual policy? Anyway, maybe this will motivate someone to improve the article too, it needs some work.

The contrast and brightness is so far off, it isn’t close to being ready for consideration. And these things are very easy to fix. I’m just gonna fix it and replace this one with the new one. I’ll keep a copy of the old one just in case someone has a coronary.
255:
Considering it is a historical shot I think the scratches and the dust while not strictly necessary do not entirely degrade from the piece and it has very high EV. I would not object to it being suspended for restoration though.
204:
Done. Only the contrast, range, and brightness. Optimized for well-adjusted monitors. I didn’t horse around with dust & scratches. Let’s see what others think of this picture’s potential before anyone addresses that.
272:
That took only 25 minutes to digitally clean the image of dust. Plus 15 minutes horsing around on
Commons because the template-based content generator didn’t work for me for some reason.

articles pick that one up? Anyone who wants the old media can still get back the older version. Right now the articles are using the dusty variant. But to be clear, he was

For whatever reason I always find those
Commons templates incredibly too long-winded and restrictive, so bypass them to do it manually in a fraction of the time. --

It's a good start, but I don't feel it's quite enough, yet. It just needs some of the dust and scratches cleaning out.
