• This has high circulation in the media, I see no way this will be replaced by another photo. Bammesk (talk) 03:04, 27 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment - IMO, it belongs in the "In the news" section on the main page, not as a featured picture. The diagonal cable totally destroys it as a FP for me, hence oppose. --Janke | Talk 08:15, 25 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Oppose – Jumbled composition reduces EV. It's not readily apparent that they're inside an airplane. As Janke notes, not bad as an ephemeral spot news pic, but not up to Criterion 3 for an FP. – Sca (talk) 12:03, 25 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Oppose topical but not an FP composition - i.e. the wire. Charlesjsharp (talk) 20:52, 25 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Oppose – Have to oppose due to the sheet and wire ruining the composition. I wish the photographer had gotten a composition like this. -- Veggies (talk) 00:59, 26 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • It seems rather unreasonable to expect USAF aircrew to go on near-combat missions with cameras on sticks as must have been used to take that photo. This is a documentary image. Nick-D (talk) 11:52, 26 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• I'm not "expecting" them to do anything but their jobs. We're judging this picture's FP qualities, not USAF professionalism. It just doesn't have the composition that I would consider to be FP-quality. -- Veggies (talk) 17:43, 26 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Support Good photo with excellent EV. I really don't understand the comments regarding composition above: this photo depicts an absolutely packed military transport aircraft during an historic flight undertaken in emergency conditions, so the obstructions are to be expected. The sheeting was likely screening the toilet facilities, which are located in that part of C-17 aircraft, so it's odd to suggest that it shouldn't have been there. In short, the photo accurately depicts what this event looked like, and in a pretty striking way. Nick-D (talk) 05:28, 26 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Oppose per Janke & Charles. —kallerna 12:48, 26 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Support – Per Nick-D this is a live action, documentary photo. It shows the chaotic, unplanned, unusual circumstance well. The messiness of the composition complements the messiness of the whole operation. In this case EV takes priority over artistic value IMO (criterion 5). On a sidenote: it's already used in 7 articles. Bammesk (talk) 03:04, 27 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Support.--Vulp❯❯❯here! 16:22, 27 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Oppose per Janke. MER-C 10:05, 28 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Support as nominator – Tiouraren (talk) 04:45, 26 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Support – but the top edge is messy, it can be cleaned up (it can be cropped out, or cloned). Also on the upper left edge there is a shiny, glass looking, object; I think it can be cloned out. It's a bit distracting. Bammesk (talk) 03:42, 27 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Cropped the top edge (The brown surface seemed to be a part of the slab so I didn't crop it out). I'm not sure if it is appropriate to apply spot healing (in PS) on a fossil image, maybe the object could be dimmed so that it won't be that obvious. Tiouraren (talk) 07:51, 27 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • Not the brown surface, but what looks like the bottom of a drinking glass on the extreme left edge, 1/4 from the top... can be easily cloned out. I'd also crop away the "slit" at top right. --Janke | Talk 08:11, 27 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Support as nominator – jp×g 02:03, 5 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Oppose - Atmospheric heat distortion causes the unsharpness. Better result on a cooler day? --Janke | Talk 16:15, 5 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Reason

It's a beautiful image, with the train as a focus point, but then a truly astounding background. This comes from one of the most famous train photographers (Roger Puta), and wikipedia as a whole would be better if exposed to his remarkable work.

• comment This image has a misleading title. It is a Canadian National freight train hauled by two SD40-2 locomotives at a passing loop. The location is not given, Alberta is a very large area. There are not eight freight trains in this photograph. --Whiteguru (talk) 03:09, 1 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  I just copied and pasted the original photograph titles. I could edit it to change the title. I was not the original uploader for this photograph, so I don't know the specific location. Lectrician2 (talk) 12:11, 1 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Oppose Low quality, overly processed, posterized. --Janke | Talk 16:40, 1 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  The low quality issue is allowed, under a exemption for uniqueness and historical significance. Because of tree growth and more, this shot would be almost impossible to get nowadays. Hence this could be considered "unique". Lectrician2 (talk) 02:43, 2 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Oppose It may have been good in its day. Charlesjsharp (talk) 20:13, 1 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  But historical photographs are allowed to be submitted for featured article status. Shouldn't you consider this photograph in the time period of when it was taken? Plus the uniqueness of the photograph that would be very hard to recreate. Lectrician2 (talk) 02:41, 2 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Oppose – Also doesn't meet the 1500px requirement of FP criterion 2. Bammesk (talk) 00:09, 2 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  There is a exception for historical photos. I think that given the idea of this being a older photograph, and it being filmed on kodachrome 2, you could create a exemption. I find that this is a rather unique image that would be hard to replicate, hence being allowed a exception. Lectrician2 (talk) 01:14, 2 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

It isn't used in any articles. It should be in an article (FP criterion 5). If it enhances the text of an article sufficiently enough, then it may convince the voters (reviewers) to make an exception and it may have a chance, but that's a hard task, given a somewhat similar image can possibly be shot (albeit painfully). The composition is great. It should be in This article perhaps. I wonder if the original film could be scanned at a higher resolution. Bammesk (talk) 02:23, 2 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I wasn't aware of the article criteria, so thanks for notifying me! I really would also like to see it in high resolution. Anyway's, i'l get right onto adding it! Lectrician2 (talk) 02:34, 2 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Oppose Insufficient encyclopedic value given overly generic location. No need for a historic image (and the corresponding exception)--I'm sure someone could take a scenic photo of a train somewhere in Alberta these days that would work equally well.

Reason

One of the most iconic photographs of the industrial era, this work by Robert Howlett depicts the great engineer Isambard Kingdom Brunel standing before the chains of the SS Great Eastern, the largest ship constructed to that date, which took months to launch after she was built. It represents an example of environmental photography in an era where it was technically difficult. According to the article, it "has been included in many published collections of photographs" and deemed "one of the most famous photographs of the nineteenth century, and, possibly, of all time." I'm not particularly into photography and even I know that this is one of those "iconic photos" alongside Into the Jaws of Death and Raising the flag on Iwo Jima (if not nearly as serious in subject matter). I was surprised this wasn't already an FP, so if it is do let me know; likewise if there is a better-quality version available on the wiki.  – John M Wolfson (talk • contribs) 19:08, 4 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Support. Beautiful picture with significant historic value. --Gnosis (talk) 06:31, 12 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Weak support It says a lot about the utter incompetence of this incident that the photographer messed up the exposure and/or DOF on what was obviously a pre-planned photo op. Technically this isn't great, but as noted in the nomination statement the EV is very strong. If this passes it shouldn't go on the front page, for fairly obvious reasons. Nick-D (talk) 11:16, 13 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  Agree, no main page --Andrei (talk) 16:09, 13 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  On further consideration, I'm moving to full support on the grounds of a) EV being strong (as noted in the nomination statement, this incident which was a significant element of Trump's presidency was undertaken to obtain this photo) and b) the technical problems with the photo telling an interesting story in their own right - it seems that the photographer emphasised Trump at the expense of everything else in the frame, and the article on her notes that this was in line with the instructions Trump provided her with for her work. In short, it's a historically significant photo that forms a good illustration of how Trump wanted to be presented, even when it was obviously not a good idea. Nick-D (talk) 10:23, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  I do not want to do much research here, but there are numerous articles online that highlight how and why, after remarkable work done by Pete Souza, Trump's administration was making characteristically bad photos. Almost all of them are low quality, badly composed, not personal, taken from a distance, they also often used mobile phones to document even the most significant events. --Andrei (talk) 12:20, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Reason

FP on Commons. I think that the particular historic value of this piece is due in large part to the late date in which it was produced. I think when most people think of the Inquisition they think of it in terms of the late medieval period, with the name of 15th century Grand Inquisitor Tomás de Torquemada becoming almost synonymous with the Spanish one (and little mention is made in popular culture of the Mexican or Portuguese ones). An artwork depicting contemporary trials in the 19th century, barely a few decades before Spain entered the industrial age, is in my opinion of high value as it dispels this distorted notion of the institution.

• Support – A high quality image of great historic value. Two American presidents "peacefully discussing". (This image is on my talk page since a month) – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 09:16, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment Historical interest, but the composition is not to my taste. Charlesjsharp (talk) 09:35, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Oppose – Gimmicky composition, dominated by back of chair. – Sca (talk) 12:44, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• I actually believe the back of the chair adds to the composition. Not only does the top create a sort of straight line-of-sight between the two, but the darkness of the chair creates a separation which illustrates both the divide between the two politicians and the tenseness of the situation. The divide reminds me of Vier Apostel (see below) A. C. Santacruz ⁂ Talk 21:06, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Support as nominator, feel free to suggest any possible crop – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 10:13, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment – Obviously this photo has been extant for over half a century. New EV not apparent. – Sca (talk) 12:42, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Sca – The encyclopedic value of the image can be justified as it strongly contributed to the article "Assassination of John F. Kennedy", and is used in various other articles. – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 12:52, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This is the close as you can get to the temple. As you can't take your camera on the premises of the temple. Bada Kaji (talk • श्रीमान् गम्भीर) 11:25, 16 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment – Alas, jumbled composition doesn't really illustrate the subject. – Sca (talk) 13:06, 16 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Oppose Not FP-worthy, fails criteria 3 & 5. --Janke | Talk 13:38, 16 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Janke and Sca: This is the main temple in Pashupati. There are 492 temples surrounding the Pashupatinath Temple. Also, you can't take pictures on the temple's premises. This photo was taken from Pashupati Aryaghat, where you can use your camera. After overcoming these problems, this is one of the finest pictures of the temple. Bada Kaji (talk • श्रीमान् गम्भीर) 13:56, 16 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment – I agree the composition is muddled. This wide-angle photo: [2] shows more of the temple and has a more interesting composition (it's technical quality is lacking though). Bammesk (talk) 00:20, 17 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Support – the file description can be better (FP criterion 7), things like country, air show or air team if any, airplane type if known. It can also say: a counterclockwise roll followed by a clockwise roll. Bammesk (talk) 00:37, 17 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Oppose not best illustrated from the aircraft itself. Charlesjsharp (talk) 09:43, 18 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
