Main Image Change

I want to change the main image for the Eleventh Doctor's page. Can I do that? I've uploaded the image that I would use. King of the Sandmen 14:25, 7 May 2021 (UTC)

There has to be a discussion first with big pages like this, and an admin has to give a final ruling. I (not an admin) like the new picture better (it shows the Doctor's distinctive hairstyle better and there is no mood lighting), but it will probably have to be cropped a bit.

Yes — discussion is needed before anybody (even an admin) can change the infobox image of one of the TV Doctors. But I think in this case it is a discussion worth having. The current image runs contrary to T:GTI's best practices, which advise one to avoid overly stark/unnatural lighting. King's proposal is much better, but does need to be cropped severely.
I've created a gallery presenting two potential crops. Although the tightest is the one that policy would recommend by default, I think it's worth discussing, in a special case like the Eleventh Doctor, whether it's worth settling for the slightly wider (but still acceptable) crop of #3, which allows us to see a bit of the iconic bow tie.
