- Reason
- Just came across Needsmoreritalin's great wildlife photos via the video in the yellow-crowned night heron article. This seems like a solidly featurable image -- high quality photo, high encyclopedic value (infobox image),
and not one we already have FPs of. - Articles in which this image appears

- Comment – The background looks slightly noisy, at least on my screen. It could be how my screen behaves though. I will support if it looks Ok to other reviewers. Bammesk (talk) 02:24, 22 April 2020 (UTC)
- Rhododendrites, about the last part in your reason section, the other image in the infobox is a FP [1], just not in breeding plumage. Bammesk (talk) 23:49, 26 April 2020 (UTC)

- Question I'm just wondering how is it possible that it is formed from six frames? I mean the focal length is just 20 mm and the resolution does not support that either. Did you shoot through the glass or got yourself to the roof? Nice work anyways. —kallerna 14:10, 22 April 2020 (UTC)
- Thanks. I was on the roof of a nearby building, Hudson Commons (23rd floor if I recall correctly). There is perhaps more overlap than necessary, but I was happy with the result. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 14:19, 22 April 2020 (UTC)

- Support – I've been thinking about this. I think this is a better depiction than the infobox image because it shows the affected area before recovery. It is sharp where it needs to be. Bammesk (talk) 22:46, 26 April 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose My personal opinion, I don't think it's appropriate to be shown on main page. (sorry!) --Gnosis (talk) 00:38, 27 April 2020 (UTC)
- Gnosis, we don't pick images for the main-page, FP criteria says nothing about the main-page. We pick images that improve the quality of the encyclopedia by improving its articles, per the FP criteria. Bammesk (talk) 01:11, 27 April 2020 (UTC)
- Support — Rhododendrites talk \\ 00:45, 27 April 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose per FP criteria 1 and 7. My sympathies for Kallerna and thanks for electing to share the image, but the focus is on the back of the hand rather than the injury site, and neither the file description nor the caption in the article explains what happened here. (It's an accidental injury, right? At what stage was this photo taken? Seems like emergency sutures were made. Is the clear material the wound dressing and the black stuff blood clots? Did this require further surgery for wound closure?) --Paul_012 (talk) 10:11, 29 April 2020 (UTC)
- Comment I just took this photo for myself, but realizing it could have some EV, I uploaded it to Commons. Did not think there would be need for details of the accident. The accident happened with a table planer, and the amputation was made after that in operating room. The photo was taken about a week after the operation.
- I did not nominate the picture. However, I got to say I somehow like the picture: a really common object everyone knows with a small twist to make it interesting. —kallerna 05:30, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose not appropriate for FP Charlesjsharp (talk) 09:31, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
- Charlesjsharp, the instructions on top of this page say in Bold: "All objections should be accompanied by a specific rationale that, if addressed, would make you support the image." Not appropriate for FP is not a specific rationale. Nor are things like "I don't like it", "bad photo", "low quality", etc. etc. Oppose rationals should be specific, such as: Low quality because of x, y, z. On a different note, why isn't a photo of an amputation, in an article about amputation, not appropriate!! If it is appropriate to be in the article, then it's appropriate to be FP, assuming (or given) it meets the eight requirements of the FP criteria. We are not here to judge what we think is appropriate to display. We are here to recognize (give a star to) photos that improve the encyclopedia, by improving at least one article, period, per the FP criteria. Bammesk (talk) 02:20, 1 May 2020 (UTC)

- Reason
- I believe the image to be of historical significance in regard to the ghost town of "Two Guns" and the article in which it is mentioned article. I have documented many many structures in Arizona, including those in The "ghost towns", yet I never came upon a round structure until my visit to the ghost town of Two Guns. It truly is an amazing structure.

- Tony the Marine, the 1500 pixel requirement and other criteria are at this link. Interesting photo but per Veggies it doesn't meet the pixel requirement. Bammesk (talk) 21:11, 26 April 2020 (UTC)
- Thank you for the advice. The truth is that I have no idea how to bring the image up to 1500 pixel. The most I have is 500 pixels. Tony the Marine (talk) 02:24, 1 May 2020 (UTC)
- Comment I also think File:Two_Guns-Ruins-16.jpg is a better photo of the subject. Even if the round tower is the notable part, the rest of the building is still of interest for context, I think, and cutting it off at the door lintel is less than ideal. TSP (talk) 15:13, 1 May 2020 (UTC)

Oppose As a juvenile, it should not be the image to illustrate the article.Charlesjsharp (talk) 09:33, 30 April 2020 (UTC)- That's a topic for the article talk page, no? Oppose if it doesn't significantly contribute to the article, but that shouldn't be based on whether it's an infobox image, especially if the content/quality of the image is just going to be superseded by the age of the particular animal for infobox purposes. IMO it's silly to get into talk of positioning in these threads because no decision at FPC overrides editorial judgment at the articles themselves, so what we promote today could be moved out of the infobox tomorrow. Meh. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 01:55, 1 May 2020 (UTC)
- Well said, I agree with Rhododendrites. Besides, Charles has previously argued for promoting (and has nominated) various images of the same animal, such as an adult, a juvenile, a flying pose, etc. So why is he opposing this for being a juvenile!? Bammesk (talk) 02:40, 1 May 2020 (UTC)
- FPs are fine for juveniles etc., but I don't think juveniles are right for the infobox picture. Particulalry not of this species. If we had an FP of the adult with its horns, then that is different. We shouldn't mislead readers of an encyclpaedia. I have changed the Wikipedia article. Charlesjsharp (talk) 10:53, 1 May 2020 (UTC)
- @Charlesjsharp: now that you have changed it, why are you still opposing? and not supporting? Your oppose rationale no longer applies. Bammesk (talk) 01:54, 2 May 2020 (UTC)

- Weak oppose - It has some EV, but little else that makes it stand out. The participants are not looking at the camera and it's an odd composition with the minister on the left and the witnesses on the right with one truncated by the crop. -- Veggies (talk) 20:22, 25 April 2020 (UTC)
- Support - As per W.carter's nomination statement on Commons a couple years ago. The composition, Lovin looking at the camera, context of the event, etc. are what make it unusual and stand-out. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 23:14, 25 April 2020 (UTC)
- Support. High-enough EV, intriguing in its deliberate variance from the standard politician-signing-a-bill shot, with well-chosen details all the way from one edge (the barely-visible but still clearly recognizable Swedish flag) to the other (the pregnant supporter). —David Eppstein (talk) 23:41, 25 April 2020 (UTC)
- Support While only adequate technically (I suspect it would have been a much better photo if the photographer had taken one step backwards), this is a powerful photo with very good EV. The photo should probably be more widely used in articles on women in politics. Nick-D (talk) 00:23, 26 April 2020 (UTC)

- Oppose Just not a good composition. I opposed at Commons. Charlesjsharp (talk) 09:39, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose. I'm really not sold on the composition, and while I can certainly see what the photographer was trying to do, it does feel awkwardly posed. Whatever my own views on the politics motivating the photo, I'm surprised how much support this is getting. Josh Milburn (talk) 06:45, 3 May 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose Per Josh Milburn. —kallerna 10:16, 4 May 2020 (UTC)
- Support Notable news photo, which has attracted attention in its own right (e.g. CNN here; and I think things some others have considered oddities add interest. I think its EV as a one-off event and as a notable photo more than overcomes any technical limitations. TSP (talk) 11:00, 4 May 2020 (UTC)

- My screen shows a second image captioned This is a Featured Picture of food 10:47, 1 May 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose I think the buckwheat featured picture that Veggies added as a comparator actually illustrates where this falls short, and how a picture of a simple item can be FP-worthy. The buckwheat FP is clean but natural-looking, with natural-looking shadows especially; and illustrates multiple aspects of a subject (buckwheat, buckwheat flakes, buckwheat crackers) in a pleasing arrangement. By comparison the new image has harsh edges, missing shadows, and only illustrates one aspect of the subject. This is a fine photo, but I think it's very hard to make such a basic food photo FP-worthy, and I think the buckwheat photo shows how it's possible to improve on this.

- Photo of an important antenna in 1962. For a summary, see the lead section of Holmdel Horn Antenna. This is the instrument used in 1964 to discover the cosmic microwave background of the universe, which confirmed the Bing Bang theory. The two scientists who did it received the Nobel Prize in physics. On a sidenote: the image caption in Arno Penzias claims that the two scientists Penzias and Wilson are standing at the base of the antenna, but this claim is unsourced.

- David, I removed the halo. You may see an optical illusion at thumbnail size because of the edge contrast, so look at it at full size.

- Comment/Question - I don't think the article should lead with a photo of a juvenile. The convention (for pretty much all animal articles, not just birds) is to lead with photos of "typical" adults (sometimes with separate photos of the male and female if they are sexually dimorphic). We usually put juvenile photos in a Life cycle or Gallery section. If I were to move this photo lower down in the article, that wouldn't affect the nomination would it? Kaldari (talk) 16:28, 1 May 2020 (UTC)
- Kaldari, it shouldn't affect the nom, being in an infobox is not a requirement. It just implies editors think it represents the subject well (it just implies, it doesn't prove). The image has EV as a juvenile, improves the article as such, and meets the technical requirements, therefore it meets the FP criteria, regardless of whether it's in the infobox or not. Personally I am Ok with it in the infobox because, it's the best image, it is identified by a caption therefore no misrepresentation, and it has been stable. However, if you or anyone wants to move it, they could (my edit summary in the article says so as well). Bammesk (talk) 01:43, 2 May 2020 (UTC)

- These two images are historically significant and rare depictions of the scene inside the United States Supreme Court. Because oral arguments are not allowed to be photographed or video recorded, the only depictions available are drawings. As a set, they represent our only images available to illustrate Supreme Court proceedings, and on their own merits depict a historical moment that resulted in the rare rejection of a Supreme Court precedent. Beyond their encyclopedic value, they are of a high technical standard having good composition, an interesting art style, and high quality scans of the original drawings. Though these do not meet the 7 day waiting period, their encyclopedic value seems obvious enough that the waiting period can be ignored.

- Support (I'm the uploader) - I am also unexperienced w.r.t. FPs. However, I agree these are good quality pictures. Cameras are not allowed in the SCOTUS and the 3 (I think) court drawers all require payment for their work (I don't blame them). My email to Arthur asking for permission seemed like a long shot, but I was happily suprised he was willing to release these drawings. --MrClog (talk) 21:18, 6 May 2020 (UTC)
- The images don't meet the 1500 pixel requirement (criterion 2), but I am Ok with an exception in this case. More pixels don't give us more information or useful details in this case. Each image is also used in a second article [11], [12]. Support but conditionally, if the images are stable in the three articles for an additional 7 days after the 10 day voting period. Bammesk (talk) 01:25, 7 May 2020 (UTC)
- @Bammesk: Arthur Lien chose to provide the medium resolution version of these images (which normally cost $120 per sketch), presumably so he can still sell the high resolution version ($200 per sketch) to certain organisations that would like to have the images in the highest quality possible. However, besides your point, it is unlikely we will ever get more court sketches, let alone court sketches in their best quality, as that damages the court artist's commercial interest. --MrClog (talk) 08:44, 7 May 2020 (UTC)
- Support Good examples of this almost defunct artform and tradition (I remember when court drawings were often shown on the TV news in Australia), and illustrates an eccentricity of the modern US Supreme Court. Nick-D (talk) 10:54, 7 May 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose - Maybe it's just me, but how does this help the reader understand the Hyatt case or decision? Isn't there argumentation in all cases before the SCOTUS? Now, if the picture were on the courtroom sketch article, it might be different. -- Veggies (talk) 16:31, 7 May 2020 (UTC)
- @Veggies: (Actually, in some cases SCOTUS issues summary decisions without hearing oral arguments.) Regardless, the image provides a visualisation of the atmosphere and environment in which the oral arguments of Hyatt III took place, with the specific lawyers and justices present, in a way words could not. --MrClog (talk) 17:30, 7 May 2020 (UTC)
- The images are also used on Arthur Lien as a representation of his art style and at United States Supreme Court in its oral arguments section. As for its value to Hyatt III, the renditions of Kagan's and Kavanaugh's expressions are able to convey how receptive they were to the arguments. For example, in the sketch of Waxman's arguments, we see Kagan with what seems to be a positive expression, and Kavanaugh looking frustrated. This is an interesting scene in the context of the article because in the final decision, Kagan actually sided against Waxman and Kavanaugh sided with Waxman. — Wug·a·po·des 20:03, 7 May 2020 (UTC)

Hence promoting these two would not open the floodgates to an indiscriminate number of such drawings. The court case is borderline EV, but it definitely enhances the EV of the artist's article by showing his art style. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 06:15, 10 May 2020 (UTC)

I found this one, on a broken window in a dark hallway, to be particularly effective. It's been in the hospital article for a while, and is the sole illustration of JR's work in the article about him (since he used public domain photos, it's an installation that we can host).

- Kommentar: I don't want to be a party pooper, but could we say a bit more about the copyright situation here? This is a work of art by a living artist. It uses PD photographs, but that doesn't mean that the resulting work is PD - in the same way that a photograph of a PD work of art isn't automatically PD (as you, Rhododendrites, recognise, as you claim copyright on the photograph). The US does not have freedom of panorama for 2d or 3d works. As far as I can see, this is a non-free image. Josh Milburn (talk) 18:22, 15 May 2020 (UTC)
- My understanding is that a faithful reproduction of a public domain work doesn't create a new copyright, even if it's made much bigger and displayed on a different surface. As such, the license for this picture-of-a-picture that I put on the file (by default, FWIW), would be limited to the larger context/framing/postprocessing and indeed might not hold up as sufficiently original to create a new copyright. I'm not so concerned with that. If it's unclear, I'd recommend nominating it for deletion on Commons, but the Commons community does (in my experience anyway) tend to err on the side of keeping depictions of public domain works. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 20:46, 15 May 2020 (UTC)
- Is this a reproduction of only one public domain photo? If not, then I don't think there's any question that there have been artistic choices made sufficient to generate copyright (IANAL). Even if if it is a reproduction of only one photo, there are surely choices made about placement - this isn't just a mechanical reproduction of an old photo, it's placing an old photo on an unusual "canvas" in a particular and deliberate way. I think it's a stretch of the "a faithful reproduction of a public domain work" approach to call this PD. (I don't feel particularly motivated to go and argue my case at Commons right now.)

- Reason
- Alexander Fleming discovered penicillin in 1928. This photo shows him in his laboratory around 1943, a few years before receiving the Nobel Prize in medicine in 1945 along with Florey and Chain who established penicillin's therapeutic application. The photo shows him in a hands-on pose which is hard to come by for scientists.

- Janke, I can edit out the intro but what's wrong with the aspect ratio? Bammesk (talk) 14:51, 17 May 2020 (UTC)
- Bammesk The proportions are wrong (as on a 3:2 frame stretched to 16:9). The frame looks stretched horizontally/anamorphically by at least 10-15%. You can see it best when the camera rolls, and the shape of the subject stretches (at 1 min 33 sec, for instance). I don't think it's just the fisheye lens, but that the frame format has been changed from the original. --Janke | Talk 17:28, 17 May 2020 (UTC)

- I see it, you are right. I am not sure how material the distortion is though. Let's see what others say. About the license, copyright owners are free to change their license after publication, I assume that's what happened here. That's why Wikipedia does a review at the time the image is uploaded to wiki, to verify. A CC license can't be undone later. Actually this was archived here in 2017, if you expand the owner's description box there is a CC note at the bottom. Bammesk (talk) 18:21, 17 May 2020 (UTC)

- Reason
- This image is a high quality SVG that conveys climate change at a glance on a smartphone or as a thumbnail view. Fluctuations due to climate variability such as El Nino are smoothed out by using longer term averages of at least a decade. The map is improved from the highest quality rendering that NASA’s Scientific Visualization Studio generates, with horizontal and vertical lines removed and with a more legible aspect ratio of Kavraiskiy VII. The customized text and key minimize space use and are easy to localize as an SVG.

- Reason
- Compelling and high-quality photograph. Has significant EV in its article. (Perhaps the tree might be considered an "obstructing" element per criterion 1; I don't think it is, but if consensus says otherwise it can likely be cropped.)

- Kommentar – We generally don't nominate PNGs, because for some reason JPGs render sharper on Wikipedia pages. Converting the format would be an improvement. Also the white code on lower left should be cloned out, top edge has a black strip which can be cloned out. Currently I am neutral on voting, I not sure the composition shows enough. But I might support if I dig into the subject a little. Bammesk (talk) 03:38, 20 May 2020 (UTC)
- The JPEG thing is counterintuitive given my work with diagrams (but having uploaded the Alt I see it's true). I decided to simply crop out the black strip, and will deal with the white code later. I have included an alt for the JPEG to the right. – John M Wolfson (talk • contribs) 04:02, 20 May 2020 (UTC)
