Image:Hawaii_turtle_2.JPG, kept
[edit]
Info Very low quality and disturbing background. I've used only 2 megapixels point and shot camera. One cannot take a good quality picture with 2 mega pixels point and shot camera and with no tripod. Besides the composition is very confusing. I believe there are too many corals to understand what is really going on.Original nomination

Comment This picture is not the version that was featured. It was Image:Hawaii turtle 2.JPG. --Digon3 talk 01:24, 11 July 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks, Digon3. I've changed the picture.User:Mbz1|Mbz1 01:49, 11 July 2007 (UTC)Mbz1
Keep This is too soon for delisting. It has only been featured a little over a month. -- Ram-Man 02:40, 11 July 2007 (UTC)
- With all do respect I do not think it is a valid reason to keep the picture. If the picture is as bad as this one is, it should have never been featured in the first place, but, if it already have, there cannot be timeline set for delisting it.--Mbz1 02:55, 11 July 2007 (UTC)Mbz1
- Our standards have not dramatically changed since this became a featured picture and it had unanimous support by 20 people. Since people don't pay attention as much to delistings, it wouldn't be fair to discount all of those votes just because a few people here might think it wasn't good enough. The time for voting on this picture was when it was first nominated. We have to have a reasonable limit on when a picture can be delisted, otherwise you could nominate a FP for delisting as soon as it was passed, which would be ridiculous. Unless you can prove that our standards have changed substantially, I see no reason to delist. -- Ram-Man 03:07, 11 July 2007 (UTC)
- I'd say you yourself have given the reason. You have not opposed delisting of the next 2 images. They have been featured for much less time than that image was. Please understand me correctly I submitted the picture for delisting only because I took that picture. I would have never ever submitted somebody else picture for delisting--Mbz1 03:21, 11 July 2007 (UTC)Mbz1
- It's a funny thing: you really have very limited input on whether your own pictures are featured or not. -- Ram-Man 21:28, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

- Keep Keep or substitute by a similar but better image. Corals may be confusing but the turtle can be detected clearly enough due to brightness of colours. --Javier ME 13:51, 14 July 2007 (UTC)

- Keep. Plenty of wow factor. Good shot of a difficult subject. This photo is special. Ben Aveling 04:58, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

- Comment Finally, people are looking at the delisting section! --Digon3 talk 14:57, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
- Maybe it'll get more keep votes than original support votes! Where is the rule of 5th day anyway? -- Ram-Man 14:58, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

result: 1 delist, 11 keep, 0 neutral => kept(rule of 5th day). --MichaelMaggs 21:48, 19 July 2007 (UTC)
