Info Of the Common pigeon genus this is a specimen with all relevant details (bright red eyes, red feet, ringed plumage, white feathers, greenish neck ring) in perfect focus against an unobtrusive background. The only complete FP we have loses the details in the shadow and, therefore, does not get even close to this picture. Created by Luc Viatour - uploaded by Luc Viatour - nominated by Axel Tschentscher

Comment - I agree with the points in the nomination, but don't we ask for geographic coordinates? Are they there? I'm not seeing them for this file (nor for the other one). -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 21:35, 21 October 2019 (UTC)
- @Ikan Kekek: Geolocation is mandatory for VI, at FP we don't have a rule like this – it's more like a "nice to have" in most cases. Personally, I sometimes ask for it if I consider it important for the subject, but wouldn't insist on it for a picture like this. After all, this is an incredibly common species, and with the background blurred like this there are no clues as to where the picture was taken anyway. It could be a scene from almost any city in Belgium (or on the planet). --El Grafo (talk) 06:56, 22 October 2019 (UTC)
- Comment Has enough green CA on the right side to kill an everyday nom. -- KennyOMG (talk) 22:15, 21 October 2019 (UTC)
Neutral The picture is good, and probably among most aesthetic pictures ever of this unaesthetic species. But the exact location is missing: not only geotag, also a category (city, district, street/square -- in short, the lowest available depth). Without these infos, I hesitate to support. Unfortunately, Lviatour apparently is not active. --A.Savin 12:52, 22 October 2019 (UTC)- Support Hopefully, someone will be able to get in contact with Luc Viatour for the location info. In the meantime, I support the image as being acceptable for FP. --GRDN711 (talk) 18:40, 22 October 2019 (UTC)
- Comment - This is a very good pigeon picture, and while this isn't the most beautiful pigeon I've ever seen, there's nothing ugly about it to me. But since green CA was mentioned, I suppose there may be some on the tail feathers, and that's inhibiting me from voting to support this nom. We really need M. Viatour to come here and participate. It looks to me like the email shown on his personal gallery page is operational, though whether it would actually get to him is anyone's guess. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 02:59, 23 October 2019 (UTC)

- Comment Careful, there is one isolated line "(x) I withdraw... Editor-1" at the end that does NOT belong to this nomination. --Axel (talk) 19:32, 27 October 2019 (UTC)
- Comment - I doubt I was the only one who was faked out by that. It seems entirely stray. Should we delete it? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 02:17, 28 October 2019 (UTC)
