[edit]

  • Nomination Image of moving Jeep with splashed mud. Nevit 20:08, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Promotion
  •  Comment This one is better because of better lighting. Too strong contrast here. --~~~~.
  •  Support Sufficient quality. Wonderful composition. --Norro 11:56, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
  •  Oppose Unnatural sharpness. The unsharp-mask too work, maybe. _Fukutaro 15:20, 23 March 2008 (UTC)
  •  Support High res. --Beyond silence 13:26, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
  •  Oppose Background is noisy. It is like this image has had too much processing. -- CarolSpears 00:45, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
  •  Support - This one is on the borderline. But this time I like the composition and tight framing -- Alvesgaspar 19:25, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

Result: 3 support (excluding the nominator), 2 oppose -> promoted -- carol 00:16, 31 March 2008 (UTC)

Kezmarok CoA.png

[edit]

  • Nomination Coat of arms of Kezmarok city (Slovakia) - Pudelek 23:16. 7 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Decline
  •  Oppose- shouldnt it be a SVG?-LadyofHats 14:00, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
  •  Comment SVG isn't required. in my opinion PNG is better - Pudelek
  •  Info please read Category:Images that should use vector graphics. ty-LadyofHats.
  •  Comment Out of curiosity, why do you prefer PNG? In any case, you can have both. Some maps with very large filesizes have a PNG version for accessibility—I've even done so with some of my uploads; I don't see why there couldn't be an SVG and a PNG of this image. Fvasconcellos 13:52, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

Result: 0 support (excluding the nominator), 1 oppose -> not promoted -- carol 00:13, 31 March 2008 (UTC)

Roman Baths

[edit]

  • Nomination "Roman Baths" in Sanssouci park. Second version. --Lestat 22:34, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Decline
  •  Oppose Too unsharp, sorry. Possibly due to aggressive denoising? --Aqwis 23:59, 23 March 2008 (UTC)
I don't agree, photo is sharp. If somebody want sharper one may resize it (it is bigger than minimum size for FP). --Lestath 23:36, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
  •  Oppose the grass looks very unnatural FRZ 19:29, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

Paper mill in downtown Danville, IL

[edit]

  • Nomination Paper mill in downtown Danville, IL. Hooray depressing pictures! --Dschwen 15:53, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
  •  Question is this Danschwenville? -- CarolSpears 23:37, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Promotion
  •  Oppose Not good for your health to get up so early in the morning... Nice atmosphere, but the barrel distortion is quite disturbing -- Alvesgaspar 1:02, 23 March 2008 (UTC)
  •  Info I reuploaded a version which corrects for the distortion. I didn't notice it before you mentioned it, but now I agree it looked very disturbing. --Dschwen 17:11, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
  •  Support - Good -- Alvesgaspar 18:22, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
  •  Support The snowflakes remind me of a town I visited long long ago which had a coal plant that rained down chunks of soot. --Thisisbossi 04:21, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

  •  Support In my area of the "midwest" (quite mis-named) there were always many more winter days that looked like this than not. The photograph is not even depressing to me as this is just how things are there. -- carol 23:35, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
  • This last vote doesn't count as it was cast after the 2 days rule that I think I read somewhere; but this does not affect the outcome. -- carol 00:09, 31 March 2008 (UTC)

Marching

[edit]

  • Nomination Anti-war protest in Washington, D.C. --Ragesoss 04:42, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Promotion
  •  Support Good depth of Field, very Impressive to me! --Stefan-Xp 16:27, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
  •  Oppose Sorry but, once again, I cannot agree this is a quality image. There are visible artifacts all over the picture, which suggests that the camera was not used at it's best capacity. The worst is the background -- Alvesgaspar 21:09, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
  •  Support for now, Alvesgaspar can you be a bit more specific on the artifacts? Dori 21:33, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
    • With the picture opened in full size, look at the arm of the man with a dark shirt -- Alvesgaspar 21:55, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
      • So the skin detail in the shadow? That doesn't seem a big deal to me as overall the image is good. It's a DSLR and it can't get that detail, we'd have to accept only MkIII's and D3's if we were to go that far. Dori 1:47, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
  •  Oppose overexposed parts. --Lestath 11:26, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
  •  Support Nice composition, high resolution, detailed foreground. --Beyond silence 13:51, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

Result: 5 support (excluding the nominator), 2 oppose -> promoted -- carol 00:02, 31 March 2008 (UTC)

Cucurbita

[edit]

  • Nomination Cucurbita pepo, new bud. Arria Belli 16:52, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Decline
  •  Support Well Done! Very nice focus! --Stefan-Xp 16:27, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
  •  Oppose Sorry, I don't agree. The centered composition is boring, the background is distracting and there are visible artifacts - Alvesgaspar 21:01, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
  •  Oppose I agree with Alvesgaspar: the background has too much detail and the color similarities with the subject. --Thisisbossi 02:22, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

Result: 1 support (excluding the nominator), 2 oppose -> 'declined -- CarolSpears 23:59, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit]

  • Nomination Hdr image --Nevit 12:05, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Decline
  •  Support Love the green. Arria Belli 20:12, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
  •  Oppose Too unnaturall. --Lestat 11:10, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
  •  Oppose HDR effect is overdone. Thegreenj 16:16, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
  •  Oppose HDR alone doesn't carry a picture. In this case it actually ruins it. Plus it is just fake HDR, real HDR needs several bracketed exposures. --Dschwen 17:25, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
  •  Comment Bracketed exposures are available on request. --Nevit 23:14, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
    • If you don't mind, would you upload them? This doesn't look like a scene that would require a very large dynamic range, just a little headroom, perhaps, for the sky. Thegreenj 03:47, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
      • The pre tone-map images are now available here: File:Stable_P1000984.JPG, File:Stable_P1000985.JPG, File:Stable_P1000986.JPG --Nevit 21:24, 23 March 2008 (UTC)
        • Oh I see. From the end result I assumed it was tonemapped from a single raw frame. The exposure brackets only span a small range, and the tone mapping tries to boost more contrast and saturation than the raw frames provide. --Dschwen 00:09, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
  •  Oppose The green is absolutely fantastic, but it's otherwise a bit overprocessed. --Thisisbossi 02:25, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

Result: 1 support (excluding the nominator), 4 oppose -> declined -- carol 23:58, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

Fernão Vaz Dourado 1575

[edit]

  • Nomination Old nautical chart by Portuguese cartographer Fernão Vaz Dourado, 1575 (British Museum, London) -- Alvesgaspar 15:28, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Promotion
  • Not convinced by the background, maybe it can be cropped better. --Dori - Talk 04:01, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Perhaps an SVG would be better. -- carol 02:55, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Hmm, its a reproduction of an old map, I don't think an SVG would give a faithful representation. The sharpness is borderline, some of the labels are hard to read, but that might be due to the handwriting. --Dschwen 17:41, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
    • The problem is the quality of the printed reproduction that was shot. I don't think it is possible to do better this way -- Alvesgaspar 18:08, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
      • Hmm, so it looks like someone has to take a trip to the British Museum :-) --Dschwen 18:11, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
  •  Support I honestly was joking when I made the previous suggestion -- carol 20:07, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

Result: 1 support (excluding the nominator), 0 oppose -> (more vote?) --Fukutaro 09:44, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

Camara de fotos

[edit]

  • Nomination Cross-section view of a single-lens reflex camera --Anuskafm 19:44, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Promotion
  •  CommentIt should get a Information template with a good discription. Kolossos --12:57, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
  •  CommentW3C,DTD,labels and prism.... -- carol 22:41, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
  • IF the description page is fixed i would support it.-LadyofHats 10:42, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
  • I have questions about what I learned from the validator.
    1. If the image were a bitmap -- the original upload would have been similar to a .psd or .xcf or whatever native file format the application that makes the file uses. Native files from software applications like this do not display in browsers -- making it easier to figure it all out and convert it into a format that does display (like jpg, png, gif) and don't include any of the application-specific information. This file as an example, 983KB with the inkscape stuff, 288KB without it -- both with the same image being displayed.
    2. The validator should have respected the other namespaces and while I like removing the application information, I am very unhappy with the fact that it doesn't allow embedding license information that is properly namespaced. On a personal level, if I were ever to make such a beautiful and original image, I would want my name and my license choices to go with it wherever it went; I would skip the validator 'stamp of approval' and include the cc licensing xml.

-- carol 11:58, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

  •  Comment Description page fixed --Anuskafm 20:40, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
  •  Support This could become FP after some modifications and therefore deserves QI status. For FP several things are missing:
  1. graphical quality of the zoom and focus ring
  2. graphical quality of the threads inside the lens.
  3. The Diaphragm label is on the wrong place. You don't see the blades.
  4. The autofocus sensor is missing
  5. The Exposure meter is missing.
  6. The bajonet is not labeled.

Good luck with ameliorating the drawing! --Ikiwaner 22:27, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

  •  Support - Agree with Ikiwaner on the details but think this is a very nice illustration deserving well the QI tag - Alvesgaspar 19:30, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

Result: 1 support (excluding the nominator), 0 oppose -> (more vote?) --Fukutaro 09:44, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

Result: 5 support (excluding the nominator), 2 oppose -> Promotion -- carol 23:41, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

    • How do you see c/a on a b/w image? And what is "white", white balance? In b/w? Maybe your monitor is broken?

    •  Question Why do you think ID is not sufficient ? Romanceor 15:16, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
      • Because possible is not a sufficient identification. Lycaon 09:49, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
        • Hm that's right, and corrected. Romanceor 13:50, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

    •  Question I don't understand that noise ; isn't it just water vapor ? Romanceor 12:12, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
      • I think most of the noise is due to heavy compression (jpeg artefacts). Lycaon 19:08, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

  • Decline
  •  Oppose A vertical composition would be more appropriate --ianaré 13:02, 10 March 2008 EDT
    •  Comment Well, in fact the subject of the photo is the top of the tower and not the tower herself... Romanceor 20:18, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
      •  Comment I think for an encyclopedia there is greater value in showing more of the tower. --ianaré 01:34, 11 March 2008 EDT
        •  Comment I agree with the fact that it is important to have the whole tower, but I don't think it has to be the only photo : it is possible that a part of the article about the Cathédrale de Rouen is specific about the top of this famous tower, which has a very rare structure : an octogonal crown instead of the top initialy planed. Romanceor 11:55, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
  •  Oppose Agree with ianare. _Fukutaro 14:17, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

    •  Info Lightened, sharped, and sky artefacts corrected. Romanceor 20:49, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
      •  Comment The spots are still there (deux grains de poussière dans le ciel vers le centre-droite). Much better now otherwise :-) . -- Ianare 00:30, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
  •  Comment Blurriness is probably due to small aperture (f/29), but there is still a high level of detail that would be destroyed by downsampling. --Stefan Vladuck 17:45, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
    •  Comment Wow, you made me discover it ! That's crazy... i'll use less my 29 for now on. Romanceor 13:30, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
  •  Comment I think you have blown some highlights in your lightened version. How did you do the lightening? Maybe try using curves to lighten only the dark parts a little bit... --Stefan Vladuck 23:33, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
    •  Info That's right ; I had done it with a photoshop brush. I just corrected that (better lightened) and distortion. Romanceor 13:30, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

 First version. --Beyond silence 08:20, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

  •  Support Edit - I love the edited version and supported it in FPC. QI is supposed to be a more friendly forum for receiving and improving good images (although, I am curious at the reason that both forum cannot be like that). Approving a lot of sunset and unsharp photographs in QI probably will not do much to raise the standards in FPC again -- competition among craftsmen and women should. Sausages are a tried and true way to manage offal -- one that doesn't need an expensive fine dining experience to enjoy. Beating up women or encouraging a biased wrestling match between them online is a way to make those other sausages -- groups of straight guys who were too willing to express their manliness by subordinating women. What century is it? Every little bit of my involvement with this image is emotionally inspired and lacking any effort on my part to be impartial and look and judge just the image. -- carol 20:37, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

Newer version Edit2 is better, there is no need for this. --Beyond silence 10:41, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
This is a very unusual situation. At least some of the people who put their images here take this process somewhat seriously. I spend my time with this because I take it seriously, for example. Others really look at the images before supporting or declining. From my limited view of how this works, anyone looking for a photographer or an image editor could look on talk pages for QI templates and perhaps find one. This particular image has an atmosphere around it in which another similar review process was taken much more seriously; and perhaps it should have been -- I have no opinion about that. I do have the opinion that I don't want to include an image which is scheduled to be deleted -- it is a problem in the gallery of images it will be included in. -- carol 12:10, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
Both images displayed here are scheduled to be deleted. I would really like to see the opinion of people who spend time with the review system here and leave a trail of respect and enjoyment of it. -- carol 14:39, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
Hm, odd, they are pretty similar. Just a slight rotation. But I cannot see the colorbalance issues being adressed. By the way, the duplicate template does not imply that both versions should be deleted. IMO neither one should be deleted, as the template does not apply (not exact duplicates). And comparing it to the bottom of the commons pile this image is stellar. So why delete it? --Dschwen 12:58, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
The duplicate template was applied to both images that are here. I guess that QIC is expected to not only simply agree with whatever FPC says is a good image but to also hunt for the image that is not to be deleted and that won an FPC nomination and trust that that image will not be deleted after it is manually inserted into a gallery. Correct me if I am wrong about the process that I am assuming was assumed here.... -- carol 21:03, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
