  •  Comment I hope this isn't disruptive, but we have so many high-quality sound files here that I thought that it might be worth testing the waters to see if there's any interest in creating some sort of Featured Media category beyond simple pictures. We have Media of the Day, but that's no real substitute for such a project. I chose this one as the test case as it's A. Very high-quality for 1909, well-documented, and, to avoid Anglocentric bias, not in English. Anyway, thanks for your time. - Adam Cuerden (talk) 14:23, 5 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for nominating this image. Unfortunately, it does not fall within the Guidelines and is unlikely to succeed for the following reason: this is featured pictures not sounds. Sorry. Anyone other than the nominator who disagrees may override this template by changing {{FPX}} to {{FPX contested}} and adding a vote in support. Voting will then continue in the usual way. If not contested within 24 hours, this nomination may be closed.

Which is my point: We don't have any sort of featured sound program, so I went for the nearest possibility. Adam Cuerden (talk) 16:14, 5 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Which is my point: Nothing stops you (and maybe quite a few would help you) setting up a featured sound program. E.g., recently Valued Images was construed and is now running smoothly. And BTW, I didn't think of your nom as disruptive. It's good to bring it to the attention of more contributors anyway. ;-). Lycaon (talk) 18:10, 5 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Fair enough. I just wanted to test the waters for such a project =) Adam Cuerden (talk) 19:07, 5 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
