Do we think this justifies a VI scope? Charlesjsharp (talk) 09:57, 5 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • I think so. A swamp oak was planted on December 9, 2000 In memory of all those who died of cancer. The tree may last up to 100 years! The information about the idea of planting the bog oak can be found on this board.--Agnes Monkelbaan (talk) 15:48, 5 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support Seems valid to me. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 05:10, 6 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Good technique on making the image but regretfully  Oppose due to overly descriptive scope and concern about the value of this VI nomination given that it is just information. If the image was of the bog oak tree it references (sign information could be placed in bog oak tree description), that would have more merit. --GRDN711 (talk) 05:54, 8 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment If the place is a valid scope, I think the information board is, too. If you started an article about the place, wouldn't you include it? Especially because the other scopes we've been approving are boards with poems. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:08, 8 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment All images are valuable to the person who took them; not all images are Valued images to Commons. My concern comes before the issue of scope and evaluating the image by the 6 VI criteria. Does the image have sufficient value to Commons to be considered for VI nomination?
Per COM:VIV, “Value is judged on the basis of the candidate's potential for online use within other Wikimedia projects… The concept of 'value' is to some extent a matter of personal opinion, and promotion to VI or VIS reflects a recommendation for use in Wikimedia projects by the Commons community, nothing else.”
I had some similar concerns about the poem images but accepted that they had value to Commons as creative works around this cancer commemorative theme. IMO, this sign by itself does not meet the Commons definition of VI utility. It cannot stand on its own but is information for the bog oak tree it references. If the image was of the bog art tree, I would support that image for VI, particularly given the photographer’s usual good quality. --GRDN711 (talk) 18:25, 8 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment The acid test is "In which article can this image be used? (articles that are yet to be written are allowable)."
Result: 1 support, 1 oppose =>
