  • Sorry to disagree. For me, every media in Commons should have some educational value as a basic requirements. We label the most valuable in a scope as VI, good pictures as QI, and with big wow as FP. For pictures with no EV but big wow, I would like to go Flickr Explore.

  • It is OK to disagree of course, but this is as it has always been here at commons. Wikipedia has always put the emphasis on EV (resulting in allowing small images there), but as you rightly state above, at Commons FP is for wow, QI for technical quality and VI for EV. Flickr a is popularity vote system for images of all sizes and of all licenses.
These are requirements, meaning that EV is always considered a bonus, but never a conditio sine qua non.  B.p. 06:13, 11 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Yes; I agree with you on EV alone can't be considered as a criteria for FP as for VI/EN:FP. But I can't agree with EV is irrelevant for FP in Commons. EV should stand as a base for any educational repository. My only intention is to discourage some zero EV nominations pop up once in a while. JKadavoor Jee 06:59, 11 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Jacopo, I can understand your confusion as you are not a regular at FP (15 edits at FP in the last 5 years), but this fact has been on and off discussed at least since I started in 2006. It is thus not an opinion nor an interpretation, it is just the nature of FP here on commons. We want to feature images that can be used for wow, as well on wikipedia (where EV is important) as anywhere else (where EV might be trivial). Value ≠ EV. (and yes I meant EV at FP on commons, not in general)  B.p. 13:23, 11 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
@B.P.: Wikipedia ? which ? There are so many independent wikipedias... In the french wikipédia, there is no FP, nor any picture contest (fortunately...). But I think we all agree, actually. It depends of the point of start of the thinking.-Jebulon (talk) 13:13, 16 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
