Scope	Nominated as the most valued image on Commons within the scope: Rose (Rosa chinensis)
Used in	Global usage
Review (criteria)	Question Are you sure it is a rosa chinensis? The only other picture we have identified as such does not look like that and it does not fit with the description one can find on the english WP (but colours can be deceiving, I guess). I would suggest limitating the scope to Rosa chinensis if the species is confirmed (or to another species if it is another species), since it is not the best picture of a rose we have on Commons (but it might be the best picture of a rosa chinensis). --Eusebius (talk) 07:21, 24 September 2008 (UTC) No other rose looks like this. Rosa Chinensis is the closest species to this. Mrmariokartguy (talk) 02:42, 25 September 2008 (UTC)  Oppose If we are unable to identify the species, then I can't see how the picture could be a valued image for it. --Eusebius (talk) 07:40, 25 September 2008 (UTC) Are this and this Rosa chinensis? Mrmariokartguy (talk) 00:06, 26 September 2008 (UTC) I really don't know. A specialist should tell us that, and I'm not one. All I can say is that the nominated image is bicolor, which is not a feature referenced in the english WP article. --Eusebius (talk) 06:34, 26 September 2008 (UTC) Result: 1 oppose => Declined. -- Slaunger (talk) 07:49, 28 September 2008 (UTC)
