  • A Yet another infobox image RFC on a biography and another example where the alternative is not a real improvement. The status quo is perfectly fine and that appeared to be okay in the discussion prior to this RFC. I'm not sure what's driving all these infobox image RFCs, but many of them are completely unnecessary. Nemov (talk) 20:42, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Updated - new additions are even worse and changing the RFC options after 4 days is bizarre and further clouds the discussion. Nemov (talk) 15:23, 15 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • A, as the subject is deceased. We normally use official state portraits for sitting officials, but Mubarak passed in 2020 and had not been in office since 2011. SWinxy (talk) 01:54, 11 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • A is fine. i don't think either image is great: A is airbrushed, but B has a cluttered background, he's not in his prime, and there are plenty of other pictures in the article showing him as he actually appeared
so i don't see any real benefit of changing it to image B. Rainsage (talk) 19:31, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • B per CFA and Tom B

Exactly. (CC) Tbhotch 21:51, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
that's recent, it's been 13 years for me, but i still appear to be one of the 'top 10' editors! Tom B (talk) 22:30, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
it seems like the consensus is to stick with the current image. Rainsage (talk) 21:23, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Can someone add this image: Hosni Mubarak ritratto.jpg, which is Mubarak in 2009, to the article somewhere. Its a good image and shows him in his final years in charge of the country. DotCoderr (talk) 09:29, 21 September 2024 (UTC) DotCoderr (talk) 09:29, 21 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
