✓ Done => precision : "in SE Asia" - Basile Morin (talk) 07:57, 29 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
 Info The photo comes from this island : Don Det, Champassak, Laos. - Basile Morin (talk) 00:05, 30 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Very good but you have to add geocoding. --Archaeodontosaurus (talk) 04:44, 30 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
 Question How to do that ? - Basile Morin (talk) 04:58, 30 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
{{object location dec|45.550151|11.549319}} Here is the example of the image that is under yours. you go to Google map you take the GPS coordinates and you replace them in this formula. You poke this cheese in your caption. --Archaeodontosaurus (talk) 05:03, 30 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
✓ Done Thanks - Basile Morin (talk) 05:14, 30 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment - In this case, I wonder if this style of kitchen garden can represent all of Southeast Asia. When I lived on the East Coast of Malaysia in the 70s, no-one I knew had an elevated kitchen garden; instead, they had more or less small to tiny plots next to their garden or in their yard. But I don't know enough to know which areas of Southeast Asia this style of garden is distinctive to, so if it's the most useful photo of a Southeast Asian kitchen garden, it would qualify as a Vi in this scope. Has anyone compared this photo with all other photos of Southeast Asian kitchen gardens, keeping in mind that there is no such Commons category? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:01, 30 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Category added and scope changed : Kitchen garden => Raised garden bed. - Basile Morin (talk) 02:13, 1 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
OK, so no longer in Southeast Asia. How many photos of raised garden beds are there on Commons? Are they all in one category? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 01:19, 2 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Yes. 60 photos until now.
@Ikan, tell me if that's a problem that the scope gets improved. Thanks - Basile Morin (talk) 02:55, 2 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
It's not a problem if someone looks at all 60 photos and determines which one is most useful. That seems conceivably manageable. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 03:29, 2 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The File:Picardo_Oct_03.jpg may be the best competitor, also used in the article en:Raised-bed gardening Though I won't fight to promote mine - Basile Morin (talk) 04:02, 2 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

[unindent]  Comment - I started looking through the gallery for the category, and the problem is that you're competing with non-food raised garden bed photos like File:Cactus succulent house Capel Manor Gardens Enfield London England 3.jpg. It looks to me like you need to change the scope to something that indicates the crops being grown are for food. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 00:23, 3 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry to disagree, but non-food flora is also welcome on "raised garden beds". See en:Raised-bed gardening on wikipedia. If the file you mention was better to illustrate a "raised garden bed", I think it would be OK for the scope. Thus, I think I'll keep this name, but feel free to oppose if I'm wrong - Basile Morin (talk) 01:18, 3 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Could be used for such articles https://thefoodsage.wordpress.com/2011/01/30/laos-a-culinary-trail/ since here in Don Det, all the kitchen gardens are just like that. A neighbour explained me this afternoon that the stilts help keeping the vegetables away from the insects. We rarely use insecticide in Laos, so that's an interesting technique -- Basile Morin (talk) 12:26, 4 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
OK, but I'll bet in Isaan, they use the same technique. How widespread is it? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 20:21, 4 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I don't know how widespread it is. You may say right but I couldn't find any example of such stilted gardens in Thailand nor other Asian countries. -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:07, 5 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
