- I would absolutely support a cleaned up version. April fools is coming up... Aaadddaaammm (talk) 18:31, 14 February 2012 (UTC)
- Support edit. Looks good! Aaadddaaammm (talk) 10:39, 16 February 2012 (UTC)
- Support A cleaned up version would be better, but this is a wonderful photograph. One of a kind that is rich in cultural information that enriches an encyclopedia. Beyond all words! MathewTownsend (talk) 00:32, 15 February 2012 (UTC)
- Support assuming a cleaned up version is made available. It shouldn't take too much work, just a bit of clone brush. Ðiliff «» (Talk) 08:04, 15 February 2012 (UTC)
- What is he regurgitating? Water? Brandmeister t 14:44, 15 February 2012 (UTC)
- According to his article, he spouted all sorts of stuff. In this case it looks like water:
- "The mainstay of Ali's act was "water spouting." After swallowing large amounts of water, 60 to 100 glasses at a time, he spouted the water in a continuous stream for a sustained period of time, sometimes approaching one minute."
- "Ali's most famous stunt, and the highlight of his act, was drinking copious amounts of water followed by kerosene, and then acting by turns as a human flamethrower and fire extinguisher as he expelled the two liquids onto a theatrical prop." MathewTownsend (talk) 15:00, 15 February 2012 (UTC)
- Edit added with more restoration. Crisco 1492 (talk) 09:27, 16 February 2012 (UTC)
- Support edit, nice clean-up job. Only thing I'd also like done is the moustache on the gent in the middle. Nikthestoned 11:27, 16 February 2012 (UTC)
- I'll try and get that done tomorrow (my time), as I don't have the software anymore. Crisco 1492 (talk) 13:56, 16 February 2012 (UTC)
- Support Edit Decent job on restoration!--Nanoman657 (talk) 16:40, 16 February 2012 (UTC)
- Could you strike the oppose vote above to make determining consensus easier? Thanks. Crisco 1492 (talk) 00:47, 17 February 2012 (UTC)
Oppose for now. Needs a better caption. E.G. Where is he? What is he regurgitating? Who are the people there with him?Dusty777 (talk) 17:58, 16 February 2012 (UTC)
- The LOC information only says that he was performing at the Egyptian Legation on 27 March 1926. This data has been added to the caption above by myself and MathewTownsend. No further information is available although I think he just heard The Aristocrats for the first time</joke> Crisco 1492 (talk) 07:02, 17 February 2012 (UTC)
- Also, he's regurgitating either kerosene or water, both of which were his specialties. Probably water. We're not sure (and the source doesn't say) so I didn't put it in the caption. Crisco 1492 (talk) 12:28, 17 February 2012 (UTC)
