• Promotion
•  Support Good quality. --Smial 18:39, 23 December 2019 (UTC)
•  Oppose I disagree. Overall a little dark and should have a better view of the ship, something like 3/4 view off the front bow. --GRDN711 03:36, 24 December 2019 (UTC)

 Comment I can't follow. Exposure is near perfect regarding the existing lighting conditions: No disturbing blown highlights, all dark areas have detail. The frontal view is just another perspective and informative. The ship could also be depicted from top using a drone, or from a bridge, it could also be depicted from the back or the side, and all views could be QI. Why not frontal? --Smial 09:53, 24 December 2019 (UTC)

• Decline
   Support Good quality. --Andrew J.Kurbiko 12:49, 20 December 2019 (UTC)
   Oppose I disagree, sorry! Completely unbalanced image design. On the right everything is free and on the left is a pack of games including a referee, whose hands are even cut off. It's never a QI! --Steindy 19:35, 20 December 2019 (UTC)
•  Support - I'd allow it. The way I see it, it's a portrait of the guy in the shirt with green and white stripes, so it's fine for him to be in the center of the photo. -- Ikan Kekek 06:30, 21 December 2019 (UTC)

•  Comment Naturally! And also a portrait of the referee. And we can rhyme with the action that was involved... --Steindy (talk) 00:36, 22 December 2019 (UTC)

 Comment Very good shot but unfortunate light -- Spurzem 11:10, 22 December 2019 (UTC)

•  Oppose This looks like an either/or shot. Either you get the jumper sharp and it's a great image, or you don't and it doesn't even classify as a QI. I think this one is closer to the latter than the former.--Peulle 15:31, 25 December 2019 (UTC)

   Oppose Per Spurzem --Berthold Werner 13:41, 20 December 2019 (UTC)
• Weak  Support Very special perspective, but as an exception one can justify it. Highlights somewhat overexposed. --Smial 19:35, 20 December 2019 (UTC)
•  Support Despite the distortion mentioned above, I think it's a very good image. Somehow it captures the mood of the place, the feel of it, which is not all that common nowadays in photography, art or cinema. It's sort of a casual glance at the world that suddenly makes one stop for a moment, look again and ask oneself: what was that that made me pause here? If you know what I mean. The expressions on people's faces are just marvelous, especially the guy looking at the ceiling. All this could not be captured without wide angle lens, thus the distortion. So what? - do we look at the works of El Greco or Salvador Dali and think: nah, that ain't art, them guys made those figures look mighty unnatural, any half decent house painter would do a lot better! I believe the distortion in this photo is not intentional, it's just a byproduct of technology used, but what's more important, technology or thoughts and feelings it creates? I hope the later. --Stoxastikos 20:05, 20 December 2019 (UTC)
•  Comment Dalí did not have to obey any guidelines. That is one of the differences between him and us Wikimedians. One simple solution to the problem would be to abolish those guidelines and we all become artists. --Palauenc05 10:16, 21 December 2019 (UTC)
  •  Comment If that was so simple! The rules are made and followed by people who failed to become artists. Abolishing of the guidelines won't help them to see things differently and suddenly start thinking outside of the box. In fact, it'll only make things worse. Artistic mentality, on the other hand, already presumes a constant questioning of the existing norms, because the rules without reasonable exceptions tend to become oppressive to any growth - artistic, personal, public and communal as well. --Stoxastikos 12:45, 22 December 2019 (UTC)
•  Oppose Perspective distorted. The people on the left and right will fall over. --Steindy 00:05, 21 December 2019 (UTC)
•  Oppose The walls of the church do lean in, it's the way it is built, but in this case the distortion is adding to it, as we can see in the altar and the people on the sides. It's just too much.--Peulle 15:28, 25 December 2019 (UTC)

 Question Is this a new rule? Where can I find idt? --Steindy 00:09, 21 December 2019 (UTC)

Dear Steindy, I don't know the exact date, when "reviewers may demand more for subjects that can be photographed easily. This is because images on Commons may be printed, viewed on monitors with very high resolution, or used in future media." has been introduced, but https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Quality_images_candidates#Resolution exists for many years now. -- Smial 17:50, 21 December 2019 (UTC)

•  Support: for a drone photo, the size is acceptable, I think. --The Cosmonaut 00:57, 22 December 2019 (UTC)

 Comment I googled some drones. You can purchase photodrones with 13 MPix camera as cheap as 80 €, and it is difficult to find a drone below 8 MPixels if you look for models above 200 €. Of course things get very expensive, if you look for a drone with a camera above the typical 1/2.3" sensor size. --Smial 09:57, 22 December 2019 (UTC)
