  •  Comment A gallery is very useful. It is strongly advised to do so. We are all volunteers. we will not create a movement-friendly Gallery, if we sanction their absence. --Archaeodontosaurus (talk) 09:21, 18 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment An inital message to W.S., which matches the rudeness in his opposing vote and provocing translation to French. Your oppose reason is invalid and RTFM! That said : Making a gallery makes life easier for User:VICbot in case of promotion as when there is not a gallery of a name matching the scope it ends up in Commons:Valued image candidates/tag galleries, which needs human attention and that page is terribly backlogged. If criteria should be adjusted (and maybe they should), please bring it to the talk page for discussion and do not target a specific nomination to make a point. --Slaunger (talk) 10:52, 18 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    • You should get your facts straight before lambasting! I first added the english name to the nom, italicizing the scientific name, not opposing and requesting a gallery [1]. In my book that is being constructive. This was rudely reverted. Then the only way to get through to Yann was opposing. That's my prerogative. I even took the trouble to translate my reasons in french, which apparently is not appreciated neither :-((. พ.s. 11:22, 18 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
      • Sorry, I was not aware of that page history and the revert. Thanks for pointing that out. But regarding the translation to French, you and I both know Yann is good at understanding English and that it was unneeded. --Slaunger (talk) 11:38, 18 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    • This is at least a good reason for the gallery to exist before the promotion. So I created one. And this should be mentioned in the criterias. Yann (talk) 11:31, 18 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
