  •  Support Looks feature-able to me, but has some glitchiness and is also somewhat shaky maybe cuz of storms?. -- Eatcha (talk) 11:00, 19 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment It's certainly a valuable video. I don't know how to judge whether it's featurable or not, but I did watch the entire thing. I think the shakiness as a result of storms is reasonable, as it shows how strong the shaking was. I thought early on that the skies weren't bright enough and were probably underexposed, but I got used to it. I thought the long segment over the Pacific could have been shortened, but that wasn't the point of the time-lapse film, although I thought it might have been shortened toward the end without any notice being given. Watching this gives the viewer a strong sense of how monotonous the voyages are, but also how cloud patterns change and what a great view of the night sky you get over the ocean. A couple of side points: What's identified as "New York" looks to really be Newark, NJ. You see the ship go under the Verrazzano Bridge, turn left, go under the Bayonne Bridge, and then turn right. Also, I remember the segment on the Panama Canal being nominated separately. I was quite surprised by how few ports were visited - nothing in Europe, the Middle East or any part of Asia other than China. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:13, 21 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support The more I think about this clip, the more I think that since there's no "Valued media" category, this merits a feature. It's substantial and interesting enough. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 16:56, 23 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
