Info The composition isn't very interesting and the quality is definitely not on par with what is produced today. (Original nomination)
Delist -- Booth sift 05:12, 20 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - Composition is fairly good, IMO, and I don't think this is a really obvious delist, so I would say keep for now. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 06:07, 20 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Ikan Kekek: The composition is a wooden sea defence. There are definitely much better wooden sea defence pictures and it clearly isn't the only wooden sea defence out there. --Booth sift 01:02, 21 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - That clearly is going to be the result, but my position is that when it's not really obvious, we shouldn't be trolling through all of the old FPs to delist them. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:14, 21 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Ikan Kekek: If I were doing this in order of promotion, then this wouldn't be the one I would have nominated. There's a small chance that I might have looked at each one since I skipped three from 2004 and a bunch from 2005. --Booth sift 01:08, 22 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delist Even without considering the quality issues I would not have supported this as an FP. It's a decent picture and illustrates the subject well, but it's crying out for something to give the composition a bit more interest or tension. Cmao20 (talk) 14:20, 20 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delist per Cmao20 --El Grafo (talk) 18:01, 20 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delist Per others. --Podzemnik (talk) 19:45, 20 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delist Not sharp even at 3 MP. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 00:32, 21 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delist for the technical quality.--Peulle (talk) 06:23, 21 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delist Barely passed original nomination. However, I would agree with Ikan the we don't really want to spend our time delisting old photos as focus of our attention. Also please could you link to the Featured Picture page like we do on nominations, so people can compare with other FPs. -- Colin (talk) 17:03, 21 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Colin: I'm not. I just took a look through the FPs and nominated those that I felt weren't up to standards anymore. --Booth sift 03:47, 22 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delist Had possibilities, but this is unsharp and has some CA near the edges. Daniel Case (talk) 06:19, 22 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delist per others.--Vulp here 04:50, 24 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Result: 9 delist, 1 keep, 0 neutral => delisted. Boothsift 05:19, 29 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Boothsift, when you close a Delist, it is not enough to just close the nom here at the page since the rest is not done by a Bot. You have to follow the whole procedure for delisting as described on COM:FPC. Last time A.Savin cleaned up the rest for you last time on Commons:Featured picture candidates/removal/File:Bees Collecting Pollen 2004-08-14.jpg. If you only "close" a delist here in the list it might be archived and the rest of the procedure overlooked. If you are uncertain about how to do it all, better leave the closing for someone else, but it would be great if you too could learn how to do this. :) --Cart (talk) 13:00, 29 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@W.carter: Thank you for the notice, I have finished the remaining procedures though I may have left out some steps. --Booth sift 18:40, 29 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

That looks fine Boothsift you only missed removing one category on this. A.Savin did that for you before I had the chance. Thank you, it is good to know there is one more user who can help with this. :-) --Cart (talk) 19:08, 29 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
