Scope:
Stadion am Zoo
Scope: Stadium at the Zoo. (Detailed description of the scope: the view of the stadium as a whole, not the stadium restaurant [Hubertusallee 4], the stadium shield wall and not the stadium gym) |
Used in:
de:Stadion am Zoo |
Reason:
Best view of the stadium from church tower. The wall of the stadium tribune is a cultural monument of Wuppertal. -- Atamari (talk) |
Support best in scope --El Grafo (talk) 14:24, 13 July 2017 (UTC)
- Oppose I think the scope is too wide. In order for it to match your reasoning, "(vew from church tower)" should be added. You can also choose a different wording, just make sure it's not too general. --Peulle (talk) 12:36, 14 July 2017 (UTC)
- Comment This is the only image we have giving a general overview of the building from its main façade, so I think the broad scope is perfectly fine here. Remember that scopes are supposed to represent what people might be looking for when searching for an image (and not to be a description of the images content) – I think if someone wants to find an image to put at the top of a wikipedia article about the stadium, this is exactly what they would want to get. However, it certainly wouldn't hurt to make the scope a bit more specific. --El Grafo (talk) 15:09, 14 July 2017 (UTC)
- Comment You are of course aware, then, that if any new photo of the general stadium arrives on Commons, you'll have competition for the VI and this one may easily be delisted?--Peulle (talk) 14:12, 15 July 2017 (UTC)
- Comment Sure, that's how it's supposed to be. If something better comes along we have a MVR, no big deal. --El Grafo (talk) 08:43, 18 July 2017 (UTC)
- Comment El Grafo is right. In the case of a single image the scope can be quite wide. But we can hope that we will have other images of this building and to avoid problems a more precise sope would be desirable. The orientation of the view should suffice. Personally I regret the tilt which is disagreeable and which would be easy to correct. --Archaeodontosaurus (talk) 18:22, 14 July 2017 (UTC)
- Question Was the scope changed, or is that extra text just added on?--Peulle (talk) 18:53, 17 July 2017 (UTC)
- Comment Sorry, with this scope change I'll have to withdraw my support – that's ridiculously over-precise and not useful. Proposal: I change the scope to something I think we all can agree upon and leave the voting to the rest of you – @Atamari, Peulle, Archaeodontosaurus: how does that sound for you? --El Grafo (talk) 08:43, 18 July 2017 (UTC)
- Question You had made me completely confused. How far should I specify the focus? --Atamari (talk) 08:59, 18 July 2017 (UTC)
{{c|Stadion am Zoo}} - West exposure Could be a good scope --Archaeodontosaurus (talk) 09:14, 18 July 2017 (UTC)
-
- Or
{{c|Stadion am Zoo}} - view from Hauptkirche Sonnborn spire , as proposed by Peulle above. The trick is trying to keep it as short and broad as possible but as precise as necessary. --El Grafo (talk) 09:41, 18 July 2017 (UTC)
-
- Yes, those suggestions do look better.--Peulle (talk) 12:18, 18 July 2017 (UTC)

The groups of images are not admitted to the competition, but a montage of the three images would be perfect and didactic. --Archaeodontosaurus (talk) 08:13, 15 July 2017 (UTC) |

Scope:
Lucanus cervus (Stag beetle), male in wild |
Used in:
ba:Болан-ҡуңыҙ, es:Lucanus cervus, it:Lucanus cervus, pt:Vacaloura, vi:Lucanus cervus and other |
Support Useful & used --Archaeodontosaurus (talk) 16:48, 16 July 2017 (UTC)
- Oppose George, I would support another of your images as much better for VI File:Lucanus cervus male 2008 G1.jpg. Charles (talk) 13:03, 18 July 2017 (UTC)
- Support I think this one is the best since we're only looking at them as thumbnails in VI. The colour is better IMO.--Peulle (talk) 13:28, 18 July 2017 (UTC)
- We are not just looking at thumbnails in VI. Charles (talk) 10:25, 19 July 2017 (UTC)
- What I mean is that the VI review size is not the same as in QIC (that surprised me when I came here, but it makes sense): "The image must look good on-screen at the review size (e.g. 480x360 pixels for a standard 4:3 landscape image). Its usability in printed format is not considered.".--Peulle (talk) 13:33, 19 July 2017 (UTC)

Scope:
Abraxas grossulariata (Magpie moth) dorsal |
- Oppose As a thumbnail I prefer a different image with a single-coloured background, to offer better contrast to the colours of the butterfly. I think these two ( 1 or 2 ) are more suited as VI.--Peulle (talk) 13:31, 18 July 2017 (UTC)
- Comment I can't remember the outcome of the discussion on thumbnails, but I thought the rules say the images has to look good at thumbnail, but that is NOT how we determine value. The other images do not have anything like the definition. I am very happy to upload a high definition image of this same moth taken in daylight. Flash photographs do always divide opinion, but I choose this one for its visual impact. Charles (talk) 10:32, 19 July 2017 (UTC)

- As was made clear to me when I nominated this church image, the fact that your image has higher resolution and is generally of higher quality (which it is) is less relevant in VIC. What matters here is how the image looks in web articles and such, at a fairly low resolution (the guideline specifies 360 x 480 pixels). Now, unless I have misunderstood something, the images I linked to are in the same scope as this one, right? I feel that having a white single-coloured background makes the moth stand out more so you can see its colours better in the lower resolutions, hence my vote here.--Peulle (talk) 13:43, 19 July 2017 (UTC)
- I withdraw my nomination No problem. New nomination on its way. Charles (talk)

Charles (talk) on 2017-07-18 13:07 (UTC) |
Scope:
Melitaea athalia lachares (Heath fritillary) dorsal |
Reason:
I have checked all the images in the category and I cannot find any photos taken in Sweden, Norway, Finland or Estonia where this ssp. occurs -- Charles (talk) |
Question Are you saying the scope is the Heath fritillary in Nordic countries? How is the location relevant? I would think this image is competing against all other "Melitaea athalia lachares (Heath fritillary) dorsal" images on Commons, no?--Peulle (talk) 13:55, 18 July 2017 (UTC)
- Support What Charles means is that the quality of the determination is reinforced by its localization. That is a good argument. --Archaeodontosaurus (talk) 16:46, 18 July 2017 (UTC)
- Comment Lachares is the sub species. This sub species only occurs in these four countries and my point was that I've checked the geolocation of all the other images (none of which are identified with any sub-species) and none were photographed in the four countries. Saves everyone a lot of time checking! Charles (talk) 19:38, 18 July 2017 (UTC)
-
- Question So an image of the insect in its natural habitat is worth more as a VI than - say - an image taken in a terrarium in New York?--Peulle (talk) 23:29, 18 July 2017 (UTC)
- Absolutely. For an animal or plant species, an image is more interesting if it has been taken in a natural habitat and if possible in its original habitat. --Archaeodontosaurus (talk) 07:21, 19 July 2017 (UTC)
- And it is very dangerous to assume any animal bred in captivity is a pure specimen of a particular sub-species. We should not be promoting 'zoo' images unless they are the only ones we have. Charles (talk) 10:34, 19 July 2017 (UTC)
- Interesting. Thanks for the info. :) --Peulle (talk) 13:49, 19 July 2017 (UTC)

Support Best in scope, IMO (the other two aren't as good), although if you want it to display even better in articles, you could get away with cropping the sides a little bit.--Peulle (talk) 22:00, 19 July 2017 (UTC)
