Review (criteria)	Comment - Unique in scope and useful, but I'd like to ask User:Archaeodontosaurus whether it would be a breach of procedure for me to support a VI designation for this picture before it's been used on any page outside of Commons. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:04, 27 January 2017 (UTC) No there is no rule, only common sense. Our work must be useful to the community. The promotion of images that do not serve, devalues the label. If we believe in our images it is easy to find them at least one article where they are useful. --Archaeodontosaurus (talk) 11:09, 27 January 2017 (UTC)  Comment - I'm not sure it's common sense, because a valuable photo might be used in an article that doesn't exist yet. But I'd also point out that File:Informatiebord over kerk en begraafplaats. Locatie. Kerk van San Rocco met daaromheen de militaire begraafplaats in Peio Paese.jpg, which you supported, is not currently used on any non-Commons page, either. I made a note of that on its VIC page and changed its status to "discussed", and I would suggest that its fate - either promoted or not - should be the same as for this file, if the circumstances don't change. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 13:08, 27 January 2017 (UTC)  Comment If people want to promote images that are not used, then they have the opportunity of creating an article, then go for VI status. I'd support a change in the rule to say any VI must be used in at least one Wikipedia article. Charles (talk)  Comment - If so, any sister-site article. Wikivoyage and other Wikimedia sites count, too. Ikan Kekek (talk) 21:59, 27 January 2017 (UTC)  Comment Yes absolutely --Archaeodontosaurus (talk) 06:20, 28 January 2017 (UTC)  Comment the picture could be placed on https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lago_di_Pian_Palù --Famberhorst (talk) 08:15, 29 January 2017 (UTC)  Support - Best in scope. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 02:24, 30 January 2017 (UTC) Result: 1 support, 0 oppose => promoted.
