Question: in a set, my understanding is that one image is usually treated as primary (for example, only one image ends up in POTD). In this case that would also make it easier to judge. Are we interested in the engraving and the process that led up to it, or the sketch and its afterlife?

That's usually decided by Howcheng, I think. The engraving is used in more locations, though whether this is justified could, perhaps, be argued. Adam Cuerden(

Support as example of Waud's process, in which case it seems to me that the sketch is primary.

Honestly, it's probably a small enough set that both can be shown. =) Adam Cuerden(

Support final version only, which seems more visually appealing. While I love drawing, the promotion of final image and sketch is rather non-standard, the existing link to the sketch in the file description would suffice IMO.

Disco Inferno then the finished product should be the primary in my opinion. Cat-fivetc ---- 12:28, 21 December 2012 (UTC)reply
