- I think you can cut the part where the photo itself ends, it looks like it was glued to some paper. Gryffindor (talk) 13:12, 8 November 2013 (UTC)

Rilindja Demokratike

The first number of RD (5 January 1991) in Tirana.
Article(s): Rilindja Demokratike
Request:
- Please, can someone improve this foto. It is of great importance due the fact that it is the first free newspaper published that day in 46 years. Maybe the places where the picture is damaged can be fixed and some color added will be also great! Thanks in advance. -- Albanian222 (talk) 12:52, 9 November 2013 (UTC)

- Can someone add some color to this?
- I'm unclear by what you mean by "adding" color to this image or why you are requesting this. I suppose I could add some level of sepia toning to this what appears to be a noncommercial contemporary "snapshot" monochrome (B&W) image but I do not see the point to that or how it would improve it. If you are asking to have it fully "colorized" I do not see the point in that either as it would not in any way contribute to (and it fact could even be considered to diminish) the historical impact of the image, and any such colorization would also be speculative (and thus unencylopedic) as there is no way to know what the "true" colors were of the scene. There is nothing at all wrong with B&W images to illustrate events such as this, and in my view any "colorization" of this image (either by "sepia" toning or converting it to "full color") would add nothing to its impact or value as a vehicle to illustrate this event and could even detract therefrom by making it appear artificial.

Request:
- The line over his coat is clearly a defect of the photo. Removing it would improve the historical quality of the image. Mikael Häggström (talk) 10:52, 9 November 2013 (UTC)
