Comment Nice visual impact. There is some CA on the top inner handle and the top left of the tankard. Any chance of a fix? --99of9 (talk) 05:48, 5 January 2010 (UTC)
- I have no clue how to do that. Im just happy the Mary Rose Trust chose to donate a lot of images to Commons and I would be glad to display at least one of them as an example of our finest images. --Korall (talk) 22:00, 5 January 2010 (UTC)
Oppose The upper part, mainly the lid, seems out of focus --Pjt56 (talk) 13:49, 5 January 2010 (UTC)- Comment See Commons:First steps/Quality and description - the guideline is to use jpg (lower case) as the file extension. I would oppose this image with an upper case file extension becoming a FP, but not if it is renamed with the lower case file extension. Snowmanradio (talk) 23:38, 5 January 2010 (UTC)
- Instead of linking to a page where I dont find the information, could you please provide a good reason why the case of the file extension is important enough for an oppose?--Korall (talk) 00:36, 6 January 2010 (UTC)
- The page linked above says "For photographs, use JPEG (file extension .jpg or .jpeg)." See also Commons:File renaming, where you will see files with bad names are also changed to jpg with the lower case. I expect it is because you can get File:Book.jpg and File:Book.JPG, which is confusing to have files with the same name except for the file extension. I think that FPs (the best on commons) should follow the guidelines. If you are going to upload a new version with a fix as suggested by an earlier reviewer, then please upload the modified version with a lowercase file extension.

- Well that text says nothing specifically about the case of the file extension. I think you are over-interpreting the guidelines and I do not think that reason is good enough to start renaming files. File renaming causes a lot of work on the other wikimedia projects that uses the files so frankly I think its best to leave the files with the names they already have. Every letter in the file name is case sensitive while naming files so there is a very large number of ways to name files with very similar ways and get confused. Please read Commons:File renaming that explicitly states 6 good reasons to move a file. Changing the case of the file extension is not one of them. --Korall (talk) 17:32, 6 January 2010 (UTC)
- I'm with Korall on this one, what exactly is accomplished by renaming these pictures? Is the quality of the image diminished in any way by having .JPG instead of .jpg? As far as I'm concerned, it's a giant waste of time and effort. The extension could be, .JpG, .jpg or even .JpG, and I wouldn't give a hoot. We should be grateful that people like korall, Wolf and others are generous enough to put their pictures on Commons for free. If you want to argue the toss, start a discussion on the talk page, in the meantime, strike your votes and get some commons sense. Sarcastic ShockwaveLover (talk) 19:57, 6 January 2010 (UTC)
