Oppose Mountain is completely black, without any visible details. This doesn't work for me. -- Pofka (talk) 11:19, 25 June 2015 (UTC)

Thank you for nominating this image. Unfortunately, it does not fall within the Guidelines and is unlikely to succeed for the following reason: The nominating guidelines say "almost all sunsets are aesthetically pleasing, and most such pictures are not in essence different from others -- Colin (talk) 11:27, 25 June 2015 (UTC) | Anyone other than the nominator who disagrees may override this template by changing {{FPX}} to {{FPX contested}} and adding a vote in support. Voting will then continue in the usual way. If not contested within 24 hours, this nomination may be closed. |
I withdraw my nomination 😄 ArionEstar 😜 (talk) 16:50, 25 June 2015 (UTC)
Comment I was just about to contest the fpx and support out of principle. While the guideliness do state as Colin says, guidelines are not rules, and in any case, the same logic could be applied to just about any recurring theme here, church interiors for example. I think that the fpx should be applied to violations of rules or other issues that prevent the image use. --Tomascastelazo (talk) 17:09, 25 June 2015 (UTC)
- Tomascastelazo, in general, I'm inclined to agree about FPX. But I was concerned that this is the second low-resolution sunset photo on the FPC page and a trend may be starting to just nominate any pretty sunset. They'll always garner a handful of supports, as so many people don't actually look at the category to see that if this is featurable then so are about 10,000 other photos. -- Colin (talk) 17:34, 25 June 2015 (UTC)
- Colin I understand the idea, but junk is nominated all the time and the system of support/oppose is the mechanism to give images a pass anyway, and regarless of merit! --Tomascastelazo (talk) 17:41, 25 June 2015 (UTC)
- I agree with Pofka. If the rock is less dark would be better. 😄 ArionEstar 😜 (talk) 17:43, 25 June 2015 (UTC)
