  • I don't think that's the correct procedure, as the images are too dissimilar. I think treating them seperately is better; vote on this one and then setting up a delist vote on the other one.--Peulle (talk) 17:17, 5 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Charles, Cmao20, you are confusing Commons for Wikipedia. Commons "delist-and-replace" is really just for artworks or a reprocessing of a previous photo. The rules say: "it is not intended for replacing older photos of a particular subject with newer photos of the same subject, or in any other case where the current FP and the proposed replacement are essentially different images". -- Colin (talk) 20:55, 6 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • You may be right, but I don't think you've read the guidelines carefully enough Colin. That's not how I read the guidelines. They say "for replacing older photos of a particular subject with newer photos of the same subject, or in any other case where the current FP and the proposed replacement are essentially different images. For these nominations, vote... Delist and Replace is one of the two options. Charles (talk) 22:53, 6 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Charles read it again. The two sections are on "delist" (the controversial and until recently rarely used practice of demoting an image in isolation) and "delist and replace" (the routine practice of replacing an FP of an artwork or where a photograph has been reprocessed). For each of the two sections, the paragraph ends with "For these, vote:" or "For these nominations, vote:" to indicate which voting templates are valid. The "these" in the second paragraph is clearly referring to valid "delist and replace nominations". It would make no sense for it to refer to nominations where delist and replace "is not intended". Above you only quote part of the text. The full text includes the valid cases for such a nomination. So the TL;DR is that we don't ever do delist and replace just because someone has taken a better picture of a certain bird. -- Colin (talk) 21:06, 8 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
