  • Wow factor is low with this level of filth. It's not a question of accuracy (cf. coin) nor a question of technical quality. Just a matter of aesthetics. And apart from the facade, the glass is blueish with no depth. Poor light. Perhaps better from inside -- Basile Morin (talk) 03:46, 2 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Just to note that quite a lot of Santos needs a good renovation! Which is one of the reasons why I spent so long there documenting it for Commons. ;-) This is actually in quite good repair compared a lot of other buildings in the area, and this church is actually right on the beachfront (beach was directly behind me on this photo), which adds to their challenge. Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 12:03, 2 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • But that's an excellent picture for documentation on Commons. Thanks for the upload. Just not one of the best of the website in my opinion. Featured pictures need more than "being useful" -- Basile Morin (talk) 12:10, 2 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
✘[No] Canvassed vote. See Voting issues with Rodrigo Tetsuo Argenton and Joalpe. Very sad to see that no lesson was learnt from this episode. It looks like Joalpe does not visit FPC to participate constructively, but just to support the Brazilian friend. Previous vote was also for a Brazilian candidature nominated by the same in 2021. And older archives are even more explicit. This team really doesn't understand the goal of the FPC section, which aims to promote the best images of Commons, not to support exclusively the Brazilian friends -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:55, 3 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
For the record, I don't think this represent the whole picture. See [1] for this discussion, and rebuttal by Joalpe. Yann (talk) 15:33, 3 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
