• Category: Commons:Featured pictures/Natural phenomena#Fire
•  Info created by Imehling - uploaded by Imehling - nominated by Imehling -- Imehling (talk) 13:30, 22 December 2019 (UTC)
•  Support --Imehling (talk) 09:21, 23 December 2019 (UTC)
•  Comment - Dramatic picture. Can you add a proper category? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 21:32, 22 December 2019 (UTC)

• I've specialized the category "Holi bonfires in India" to "Holi bonfires in Udaipur". --Imehling (talk) 08:05, 23 December 2019 (UTC)

• I don't mean the file's category on the file page; I mean the featured pictures category. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 09:03, 23 December 2019 (UTC)

• I'm actually not sure myself what category fire belongs in, but since this isn't fire as a natural phenomenon, there may be some kind of category for religious rites or celebrations. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 09:04, 23 December 2019 (UTC)

• Sorry, I don't do that so often. I hope "Featured pictures/People#Events" is ok. There are images of religious celebrations in this category and I've found nothing better. --Imehling (talk) 09:46, 23 December 2019 (UTC)

•  Question Can we take that wire or whatever across the front out? Daniel Case (talk) 18:07, 23 December 2019 (UTC)

•  Done Yes, we can. --Imehling (talk) 19:16, 23 December 2019 (UTC)

•  Support, now that the wire is gone. Very dynamic. --The Cosmonaut (talk) 20:54, 23 December 2019 (UTC)
•  Support - Not greatly wowing me for whatever reason but I think it's deserving and interesting. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 23:27, 25 December 2019 (UTC)
•  Comment undecided on this one. I think for me the main issue is that for this to depict a particular kind of culturally significant fire/event rather than some other flame, I'd want to see more context in the photo. For example, there are some people there in the background, hard to see except at the edge of the frame. A wider shot to get more of the event in the frame would be good (of course, then it would be hard to get the full flame -- and they're not so conducive to panoramas :) ). — Rhododendrites ^talk |  14:32, 26 December 2019 (UTC)
•  Comment Since the people are hardly visible in this image, it doesn't belong in the 'People' category. All fire photos (if the fire is the main subject) belong in 'Natural phenomena#Fire' regardless of how they started, by humans, nature or divine intervention (take a look at the other photos in that gallery). I've fixed to category now. --Cart (talk) 15:22, 26 December 2019 (UTC)
•  Oppose not an excellent picture for me. --Fischer.H (talk) 15:49, 28 December 2019 (UTC)

•  Comment - Fischer.H, I don't think that's explanatory. You should say why it's not excellent, or what you think isn't excellent about it. Note that I'm not saying you're wrong in your evaluation, just that what you've stated doesn't explain your vote any more than the oppose symbol with no text afterwards. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 11:39, 30 December 2019 (UTC)

•  Comment I’d just read it as "no wow". --Kreuzschnabel 15:56, 30 December 2019 (UTC)

•  Comment - Yes, probably, but then that should be stated. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 19:21, 30 December 2019 (UTC)

•  Comment in my opinion, too good for an excellent picture and partly blurred. --Fischer.H (talk) 14:50, 31 December 2019 (UTC)

• Too good? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 15:33, 31 December 2019 (UTC)}}
