Oppose (formerly FPX) Image does not fall within the guidelines, Poor quality, low educational value. Yann (talk) 18:32, 7 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Yann, guidelines for quality list 2 mp while here its 5 (if I do the math correctly). The "educational" part is also neither objective, nor based on guidelines. We have photos of white walls featured here. --EUPBR (talk) 18:42, 7 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Please read the guidelines about FP, and you should nominate it to Quality Pictures before. This is not even a QI. Yann (talk) 19:24, 7 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Support Sorry but I fail to see what's so wrong with this that it deserves to be FPX'd. Re. educational value: photograph of a well known film director by a well known German portrait photographer who is sufficiently notable to have an English wikipedia article. Re. poor quality: resolution is not huge but it is adequate for FP (5.7 megapixels). Good sharpness at full size, even the individual hairs on Mr von Trier's beard are visible. I don't really like the choice to cut it out and place it on a white background but that is Herr Mark's artistic choice. I find the optical illusion impressive (I've seen it before but it continues to impress) - and I also appreciate Mark's artistic intention in using a slightly psychedelic, 'trippy' kind of background for a portrait of a director known for his avant-garde, dark, and provocative filmmaking. Overall FP to me. I think this is the first time I've ever contested an FPX but I sincerely think this picture deserves more debate. Cmao20 (talk) 22:48, 7 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Info Anna's magnificent sea slugs (Chromodoris annae), Anilao, Philippines. This species of nudibranch is found in the central area of the Indo-Pacific region and can reach depths of between 15–30 metres (49–98 ft). It can reach a maximum size of 5 centimetres (2.0 in) length. Its diet consists only of Petrosaspongia sp., a group of sponge, due to its noxious chemical composition. It's able to absorb this compound and store it in glands that stretch around the mantle. These stored chemicals are unpleasant to some surrounding fish, allowing Chromodoris annae to avoid predation.

Since I know that if I don't do it, there's every chance someone else is going to, and possibly upload over, I've uploaded a cropped version as well. I don't think the crop is as useful for most uses: This is a self-portrait, after all, so the frame is Bogardus's creation, or at least artistic decision - but I think it's often better to not leave it to others to make.

Support A refreshing perspective with adds a dramatic touch by giving the impression that the steamer will soon run over the viewer. ;–) Beautiful light and colours.

Thank you! – Aristeas (talk) 17:23, 6 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Aristeas, not a native English speaker, but I speak "water vessel". These kind of vessels are called Riverboats or Tour boats in English, so that will make it a boat and not a ship. People sometimes get confused by the designation "SS" in front of the name of similar boats, but that doesn't mean "steam ship", see the article Steamship. --Cart (talk) 09:58, 7 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Hem, a small part of the background right over her head is looking strange, like retouched. This could be a hint that the background or a part of it has been exchanged, contributing to the artificial look mentioned by Kritzolina. – Aristeas (talk) 20:37, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, I have to correct myself. When we compare other photos from the same event which show indentical background colours (e.g. 1, 2), it seems the photographer has just removed the black border between the colours because here it appeared right behind Sweeney’s head which was certainly irritating. So the background is mostly authentic. I guess it’s the almost symmetric arrangement and the front-heavy lighting which give the artificial impression. It’s the same with similar portraits from the same event (e.g.), while the more casual shots (e.g.) look natural. – Aristeas (talk) 21:00, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Weak oppose Quality is good but when I compare it to this recent nomination, the other picture, while also obviously in a glamorous publicity setting, feels more candid and spontaneous.

Answer: I assume so, it certainly looked authentic. It never occurred to me that it wasn't meant to be that way.

Support Very beautiful and poetic. We are a little bit spoilt by the wonderful focus-stacked images of flowers, but IMHO there is still room for classic one-shot photographs like this one. It’s sharp where it matters, and the soft transition from sharp to unsharp gives it a delicate quality which is very appropriate for this subject and which I sometimes miss in the focus-stacked images. – Aristeas (talk) 14:33, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Fjerning av utmerket-status

Etterhvert hender det at statusen for utmerka bilder endres. Bilder som tidligere var bra nok, vil kanskje ikke lenger bli ansett som det. Her listes bilder som du ikke lenger synes fortjener å være det. Da trengs to tredels majoritet (og minst fem stemmer) som er enig i å fjerne statusen fra bildet. Dersom ikke to tredeler av stemmene er enig i å fjerne statusen, blir den beholdt. Her stemmer man med {{keep}} (behold bildet som utmerka) eller {{delist}} (bildet fortjener ikke lenger å være utmerka). Når du nominerer et bilde her, ta med lenka til den opprinnelige nominasjonen (den finnes under Lenker på bildets beskrivelsesside. Bruk denne lenka for å legge til en fjerningskandidat.

Please read the guidelines about FP, and you should nominate it to Quality Pictures before. This is not even a QI. Yann (talk) 19:24, 7 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Support Sorry but I fail to see what's so wrong with this that it deserves to be FPX'd. Re. educational value: photograph of a well known film director by a well known German portrait photographer who is sufficiently notable to have an English wikipedia article. Re. poor quality: resolution is not huge but it is adequate for FP (5.7 megapixels). Good sharpness at full size, even the individual hairs on Mr von Trier's beard are visible. I don't really like the choice to cut it out and place it on a white background but that is Herr Mark's artistic choice. I find the optical illusion impressive (I've seen it before but it continues to impress) - and I also appreciate Mark's artistic intention in using a slightly psychedelic, 'trippy' kind of background for a portrait of a director known for his avant-garde, dark, and provocative filmmaking. Overall FP to me. I think this is the first time I've ever contested an FPX but I sincerely think this picture deserves more debate. Cmao20 (talk) 22:48, 7 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Info Anna's magnificent sea slugs (Chromodoris annae), Anilao, Philippines. This species of nudibranch is found in the central area of the Indo-Pacific region and can reach depths of between 15–30 metres (49–98 ft). It can reach a maximum size of 5 centimetres (2.0 in) length. Its diet consists only of Petrosaspongia sp., a group of sponge, due to its noxious chemical composition. It's able to absorb this compound and store it in glands that stretch around the mantle. These stored chemicals are unpleasant to some surrounding fish, allowing Chromodoris annae to avoid predation. Note: we have no FPs of this species. c/u/n by Poco a poco (talk) 19:09, 6 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Info That's a fascimile of his signature, which seemed sufficient reason to include it, since the photo is primarily used on pages about him. We could do a cropped version, I suppose, but generally we promote the least cropped version. Adam Cuerden (talk) 14:55, 6 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Since I know that if I don't do it, there's every chance someone else is going to, and possibly upload over, I've uploaded a cropped version as well. I don't think the crop is as useful for most uses: This is a self-portrait, after all, so the frame is Bogardus's creation, or at least artistic decision - but I think it's often better to not leave it to others to make.

Aristeas, not a native English speaker, but I speak "water vessel". These kind of vessels are called Riverboats or Tour boats in English, so that will make it a boat and not a ship. People sometimes get confused by the designation "SS" in front of the name of similar boats, but that doesn't mean "steam ship", see the article Steamship. --Cart (talk) 09:58, 7 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Hem, a small part of the background right over her head is looking strange, like retouched. This could be a hint that the background or a part of it has been exchanged, contributing to the artificial look mentioned by Kritzolina. – Aristeas (talk) 20:37, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, I have to correct myself. When we compare other photos from the same event which show indentical background colours (e.g. 1, 2), it seems the photographer has just removed the black border between the colours because here it appeared right behind Sweeney’s head which was certainly irritating. So the background is mostly authentic. I guess it’s the almost symmetric arrangement and the front-heavy lighting which give the artificial impression. It’s the same with similar portraits from the same event (e.g.), while the more casual shots (e.g.) look natural. – Aristeas (talk) 21:00, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Weak oppose Quality is good but when I compare it to this recent nomination, the other picture, while also obviously in a glamorous publicity setting, feels more candid and spontaneous.

Info The Triangle of Everything is a log-log chart of everything that has existed since the Big Bang or could ever have existed. All existing objects are bound by three lines: the Compton Limit, the Schwarzschild radius, and the Hubble radius. The vertices are the Big Bang on the right, the Observable universe on the top left, and the heat death of the universe / true vacuum / zero-point energy universe on the bottom left.

Oppose For 2 reasons: 1) Visually, you can't read the texts written in small size, unless it's displayed huge like a poster. 2) Too much of "everything / anything", that is obviously too complex, specific and cluttered, with unnecessary curved arrows, ellipses, or asterisks in captions saying "Asterisk means still hypothetical", etc. -- Basile Morin (talk) 02:10, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose To me the light feels ordinary, and makes the scene appear flat. And, the background is busy and just as in focus as the subject, which is distracting. Though I couldn't produce a better result in the same setting. Henrysz (talk) 04:00, 3 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Question Are these flashy sportswear pieces part of the artist's original work? It's possible but I tried to find some information about this sculptor on Google, and didn't find much other than this and this, where no evidence is given that this artist dresses his works of art. As here for the sculpture Het Lieverdje by Carel Kneulman in Amsterdam, compared to the original. -- Basile Morin (talk) 03:46, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Answer: I assume so, it certainly looked authentic. It never occurred to me that it wasn't meant to be that way. If this had been an inappropriate joke, I think the clothes would have been removed long ago because the artworks were viewed regularly. I also scanned the information on the sculpture with my phone and you also saw photos of a dressed boy.--Agnes Monkelbaan (talk) 06:29, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Support Very beautiful and poetic. We are a little bit spoilt by the wonderful focus-stacked images of flowers, but IMHO there is still room for classic one-shot photographs like this one. It’s sharp where it matters, and the soft transition from sharp to unsharp gives it a delicate quality which is very appropriate for this subject and which I sometimes miss in the focus-stacked images. – Aristeas (talk) 14:33, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
