An IP editor with dynamic range has been edit-warring here and at James Earl Jones to replace the top image with a lower-quality and less recognizable but more recent image.[1][2]
I twice reverted, but could other editors weigh in? Per MOS:LEADELEMENTS, "As with all images, but particularly the lead, the image used should be relevant and technically well-produced. It is also common for the lead image to be representative because it provides a visual association for the topic, and allow readers to quickly assess if they have arrived at the right page." The proposed 2009 candid shot of Kavner does not meet those requirements. It is unrecognizable as Kavner and, having been taken 16 years ago, is far from current.

Kavner in 2009
I agree that the 1974 image is superior, but will bring to the table this other, albeit smaller in resolution, 2009 shot of Kavner in a more neutral position and expression without a busy background. Unfortunately the face is still obscured by the sunglasses but for a more recent portrait I think it does the job better. Miklogfeather (talk) 02:16, 9 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
