This rule definitely should not be taken to mean, "Kill all the < 420px images." Obvious exception should be taken for images that really can't be blown up any more. Some characters are so minor as to not be dominant in a frame, no matter how hard you try. And if the image comes from a low-resolution 1960s programme -- or a [[Polystyle]] comic strip -- it can be even more challenging. But you should at least ''try'' to meet the 420px before giving up. And if you can't hit the 420px threshhold, you should leave {{tlx|narrow pic}} on the filepage that you can't figure out how to make the pic work better. | This rule definitely should not be taken to mean, "Kill all the < 420px images."

Good examples of < 420px pics that should be tagged and kept are: | |||

However, if the source material would obviously and easily allow for an image of a greater size to be taken, admin are at complete liberty to delete existing, smaller images without warning. | However, if the source material would obviously and easily allow for an image of a greater size to be taken, admin are at complete liberty to delete existing, smaller images without warning. | ||
For instance, if an image of [[Sarah Jane]] from ''[[Pyramids of Mars]]'' were 250px, it could be safely and immediately deleted. It's obviously possible and easy to get a better screenshot from a DVD these days. | For instance, if an image of [[Sarah Jane]] from ''[[Pyramids of Mars]]'' were 250px, it could be safely and immediately deleted.
