SHORT DESCRIPTION

  •  Info Reason to delist (Original nomination)
  •  Delist While the resolution of this image is impressive, there are stitch errors where each image has been joined which cannot be noticed at preview, but are really detracting from the image at full resolution, because streets become unaligned etc. If you can't find them, look at the crest on the top left. I'd like a featured picture of this map, because it has very high historical value, but I'm afraid the current version isn't a high quality reproduction. -- Xijky (talk) 17:04, 23 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Delist I did not want to delist this one, so I was intending to let a stitching error pass this time, but when I opened the preview and noticed how big it was, I changed my mind. It should really be fixed. --Paolo Costa (talk) 17:09, 25 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Keep It's not "big," and it is not properly fixable. This is an historic image and should not be edited to "improve" it. I presume the problem is along a line from top to bottom, in the horizontal center of the image, which doesn't look like a stitching error to me, since there is darker-colored artifact visible along the line in places, which would not appear with a stitching error. I think it's a fold in the original, which causes a quite small local distortion at the fold. This is a spectacular image. Very old objects in museums often have some defect of some kind, pottery may be broken, etc. And they are still beautiful. --Abd (talk) 16:35, 1 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
