Scope	Nominated as the most valued image on Commons within the scope: Boletus chrysenteron (Red Cracking Bolete), spore print
Used in	Global usage
Reason	Perhaps the scope is too narrow. I don't know if this would be called a 'studio shot', but I can give coordinates if requested. -- The High Fin Sperm Whale
Review (criteria)	Maybe "Spore print" (generally speaking) could be a more relevant scope ? That is only a question, not a request to change, because I'm not a mycologist. Other question: is the Boletus chrysenteron spore print noticeable enough ? Different from other Boletus, other mushrooms ?--Jebulon (talk) 23:45, 24 October 2010 (UTC) Boletus zelleri is quite close. However, this spore print is distinctive to boletes in that it is a honeycomb, and so forms many small dots, rather than lines radiating from the centre. So changing the scope to "Spore print" would be too broad; although changing it to "Boletus (Bolete), spore print" might be a good idea. And you may want to ask George to review this; he knows quite a bit about mushrooms. --The HighFin Sperm Whale 00:05, 25 October 2010 (UTC) Thanks for answering. I knew there is some "honeycomb", and some "gills". Maybe a set with both ? It should be more interesting IMO. Well, I think this picture is interesting (and well done). I'm sure George will come soon to review this, without call ! But if you are in "trouble" with him, (are you ?) I may ask him for you if you want.--Jebulon (talk) 22:47, 25 October 2010 (UTC) In trouble with him? What do you mean? If you are asking whether were mad at each other, we're not. Still, I would be happy if you would do that. --The High Fin Sperm Whale 01:18, 26 October 2010 (UTC)  Done I don't understand why you cannot ask him for a review yourself, but I left a message on his talk page...Happy if it helps you --Jebulon (talk) 16:12, 28 October 2010 (UTC)  Comment Scope is OK for me. The color of fungi spore dust is very valuable for identification. With adjusted color of this photo i will support. --George Chernilevsky talk 20:13, 28 October 2010 (UTC)  Question What do you want done to the colours? --The High Fin Sperm Whale 22:02, 28 October 2010 (UTC)  Support OK now --George Chernilevsky talk 07:04, 30 October 2010 (UTC) Result: 1 support, 0 oppose => promoted.
