•  Question Apart from cropping the picture, can you please explain what kind of restoration work you've done here? Why PNG? --Podzemnik (talk) 01:43, 30 April 2019 (UTC)

PNG because is a ilustration, not a photo Ezarateesteban 13:33, 30 April 2019 (UTC)

•  Comment - Yeah. Other than that, all I can see is that this picture is bigger. I am not seeing any restoration work, once again. Can't we just feature the original? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 04:03, 30 April 2019 (UTC)

I removed scratches on the frame (I just cropped it per Peulle), if you desire I'll nominate the original but it has bad name. Ezarateesteban

 Support - No, the crop of the frame is a significant change, and I approve of it. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 14:49, 30 April 2019 (UTC)

 Comment Hum and what about things like an orange dot next to the authors's signature? Is restoration work suppose to take care of those too, or not? I'd also have a few more notes: The picture is tilted. On the top there is significantly less space than at the bottom. And finally, I'd like the description to provide better understanding what's in the picture. It's decades old cartoon and it could be hard to understand without a context. --Podzemnik (talk) 00:58, 1 May 2019 (UTC)

 Done I found this picture here without categories, I can't improve descriptions too much Ezarateesteban 02:43, 1 May 2019 (UTC)

@Podzemnik and Ezarate:  Done That was actually pretty easy: Categorization sugged that this shows en:Tommy Atkins, but there is nothing in this caricature hinting at anything British. The text on the trash (and the fact that the author was drawing for an Australian newspaper) suggests that the former "residents" of this fine mansion were indeed Australian soldiers. "ANZAC" is the abbreviation for Australian and New Zealand Army Corps. The depicted person is quite obviously a Turkish (Ottoman) soldier (note on the wall says "So long Turkey", he's wearing a en:Fez, …) discovering the the Aussies have left (file name/title suggests it was an evacuation of sorts). This is what is immediately apparent from the drawing. To make any sense of this, of course we need to know what happened in Turkey in 1915. So Military_history_of_Australia_during_World_War_I → en:Gallipoli_Campaign#Evacuation. Did I miss anything? --El Grafo (talk) 14:11, 2 May 2019 (UTC)
