  •  Comment Hello TheBigBookOfNaturalScience, I am sorry that the absence of votes on your nomination has upset you. Satellite weather images are not the most common kind of subject on this FPC (Featured Picture Candidates) page; in such cases people often hesitate to vote. Please do not take this personal – people certainly did not want to treat you in an unfair manner, they just were not sure about the photo. Taking myself as an example, I just did not yet find the time to have a closer look at this candidate, sorry. One long-time FPC regular once told me, “FPC is often like a journey with the roller coaster, sometimes like a journey with the ghost train; you newer know for sure if and how people will vote.” Of course that is a bit exagerrated ;–), but it’s always important not to take FPC too serious; patience and leniency are always necessary. Visit this page from time to time, watch how the voting works, and try it again, I am sure that you will have success when nominating good images – not always, but often.

PS: Finally having looked at the photo carefully, I can say that I would have voted for it. Sorry that I did not find time for that earlier. Please do not withdraw so early the next time. Best, --Aristeas (talk) 15:27, 11 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment Dear TheBigBookOfNaturalScience, also from my side I'm sorry that I accidentally made a review in the already withdrawn nomination because I slipped in the line to give my support to the nomination above yours. I agree with Aristeas that weather pictures are usually not reviewed immediately, you often have to give them the full nomination period. After I had now the time to look at the picture carefully, I would have also given my support. Maybe you release the nomination again to just keep trying, there are still 5½ days until nomination closes. Best, -- Radomianin (talk) 06:52, 12 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
     Comment I won't be able to release it again due to the nomination limit and the time limit. Even by then, I probably won't get enough votes for it to be nominated. I will have to create another nomination instead. TheBigBookOfNaturalScience (talk) 17:36, 12 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
