[edit] Nominace

Jestliže jste přesvědčeni, že některý obrázek nahraný na Commons má hodnotu, která by ho opravňovala k zařazení mezi nejlepší obrázky, potom ho prosím přidejte nahoru na stránku s kandidujícími obrázky pomocí tohoto odkazu. Můžete navrhnout obrázek, jehož jste autorem, i obrázek od kohokoli jiného.

Předtím, než obrázek nominujete, zkontrolujte, že je řádně popsán a opatřen správnou licencí.

Prosím hlasujte použitím příslušného slova ve vaší řeči či použitím šablon uvedených níže:

Pro - Yes, Sim, Ja, Oui, Sí, Kyllä, 支持, Ano...
Proti - No, Não, Nein, Non, Ei, 反对, Ne...

Alternativně můžete použít šablony {{Oppose}}( Oppose) a {{Support}}( Support). Své sympatie k obrázku můžete vyjádřit pomocí šablony {{I love}}( Support) a svůj neutrální postoj pomocí šablony {{Neutral}}( Neutral).

Zkuste přidat pár slov o tom, proč se vám obrázek líbí nebo nelíbí, obzvláště pokud hlasujete proti.

[edit] Pravidla pro výběr nejlepších obrázků

14denní hlasovací období. Výsledek hlasování bude vyhodnocen 15. den po nominaci.
Jsou vítány i nominace od anonymních příspěvatelů.
Příspěvky do diskuse od anonymních příspěvatelů jsou vítány.
Hlasy anonymních přispěvatelů se nepočítají.
Nominace se nepočítá jako hlasování. Podpora musí být výslovně vyjádřena.
Mějte na paměti, že Wikimedia Commons má sloužit jako centrální úložiště svobodných obrázků, které mohou být využity všemi projekty Wikimedia, včetně možných budoucích projektů. Nejde pouze o sbírku obrázků pro wikipedii, navržené obrázky by tedy neměly být posuzovány z hlediska jejich vhodnosti pro tento projekt.

Navržený obrázek bude zařazen na seznam nejlepších obrázků, pokud splní následující podmínky:

Odpovídající licence (to je samozřejmé)
Nejméně 5 hlasů na jeho podporu
Poměr hlasů pro/proti přinejmenším 2:1 (dvoutřetinová většina, tj. přinejmenším 67 % hlasů pro)

Návod na zpracování starých nominací je na stránce Template talk:Featured pictures candidates#What to do after voting is finished.

[edit] Kandidáti na vyřazení ze seznamu nejlepších obrázků

Požadavky na nejlepší obrázky se postupně vyvíjejí. Můžeme dojít k závěru, že některé obrázky, které byly původně "dost dobré", už nevyhovují současným požadavkům.

Zde můžete uvést obrázky, které si podle vás už nezaslouží patřit mezi nejlepší obrázky. Pro vyřazení je třeba 2/3 většina hlasů a minimálně 5 hlasů pro vyřazení. V opačném případě obrázek zůstane zařazen mezi nejlepšími obrázky. Hlasujte pomocí šablon {{Keep}} Keep (zasluhuje si i nadále být mezi nejlepšími obrázky) nebo {{Delist}} Delist (měl by být ze seznamu vyřazen). Uveďte prosím odkaz na původní nominaci mezi nejlepší obrázky (ta je uvedena na stránce s popiskem obrázku). Jinak platí stejná pravidla jako při hlasování o kandidátech na nejlepší obrázky. Pro přidání obrázku na vyřazení ze seznamu nejlepších obrázků prosím použijte tento odkaz.

Comment Now, I know not everyone is going to agree with me (hey, what else is new? :P) but I think that this image has the potential, not only to be featured, but to be Picture of the Day, December 25th 2009. Why? Well, in the past, we've only ever had one christmas themed image for POTD, and that was more of celebrations during Christmas than the event itself. So I decided that I'd try and get a festive FP for Commons. For 2 weeks I went looking through the various yuletide categories, examining hundreds of images of lights, decorations, presents, food, people and trees, seeking out the biggest and best for Christmas day. I found many grand and expansive images, but it seemed as if each of them had been specially crafted to look great in thumbnail, but horrible at full size. Onward and upward I pressed, discarding 12Mpx images left and right, determined to bring home the perfect picture. I had tried every search term I could think of, and had almost given up, when at the bottom of the screen, I spotted a tree. Not a large tree, not a tree draped with lights and streamers, in a city square or surrounded by rosy faced children; but a small tree, decked with simple red bows, perched atop an errant boulder, with a somewhat elderly gentleman holding it steady. Having already convinced myself that my search had been fruitless, I nonetheless clicked on the link, idle curiosity and utter exhaustion piling atop one another to see just why this man looked so proud of what was a very small and obviously weathered and threadbare plastic Christmas tree. "What possible reason" thought I, "could someone have for being happy with that scrawny thing?" It was then that I happened to glance at the caption. That tree, that small, weathered tree had been sucked out with the storm surge of en:Cyclone Olaf, a Category 5 cyclone that struck American Samoa in February 2005. Reading the article, I realised that the gentleman in the picture, Ioasa To'o, was from Tau Island, the hardest hit area by the storm. This is a man who quite possibly lost most of his worldly possessions, had certainly seen friends have all they owned ruined, and had his home island devastated. It was then that I realised I had found what I had been searching for. This was what the spirit of Christmas is about. Not gifts, or carols or lights, not even about trees. What this photo says to me is 'hope'. Even amongst disaster, the true spirit of Christmas, embodied in this tiny, unassuming tree, shines through. Just this once, I'm ignoring quality all together. For a picture like this, I wouldn't care if it was 100 pixels by 400 pixels. Wherever you may be, a Merry Christmas to you all. May it be as insightful as mine has been.
Support -- Sarcastic ShockwaveLover (talk) 12:03, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
Support Ok, ok you've persuaded me :) Personally, I don't care much about the "spirit of Christmas", but this picture has a story, so I don't mind not so good quality. I'm not sure about the tilt, though. The tree maybe looks better fully vertical, but still... --Lošmi (talk) 02:52, 29 November 2009 (UTC)
Oppose Yea, it could be POTD, but not featured. Too much compressed and too much contrast. —kallerna™ 14:02, 29 November 2009 (UTC)

- And much heavier, and not possible due to the FPS limit on most DSLRs. Diti the penguin — 22:30, 26 November 2009 (UTC)
  - I'm not sure how valid a defense that is. My DSLR has a full-fledged video mode, as do many currently on the market. Point-and-shoots have had that sort of capability for more than half a decade, too. —Notyourbroom (talk) 01:51, 27 November 2009 (UTC)
    - Yours may do, but what about people like me, who buy standard DSLRs from Nikon (D40) or Canon (450D)? This category of DSLRs is the most common, and not every people is willing to buy every new camera that comes to the market. Diti the penguin — 13:05, 27 November 2009 (UTC)
      - Whatever the reason is does not make this look any smoother. /Daniel78 (talk) 18:25, 27 November 2009 (UTC)
      - I do not know what you mean by "standard" DSLRs; Nikon sells DSLRs at several price points with video recording capability, including the Nikon D5000, Nikon D90, Nikon D300S, and Nikon D3S. I'm not as familiar with Canon's models, but my point is that video recording capability is not unusual at all in modern cameras. It's certainly not restricted to high-end models. —Notyourbroom (talk) 04:37, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
Oppose I would think a video would have been much a better medium to illustrate this through; Commons is a repository of video as well as images, after all. —Notyourbroom (talk) 01:49, 27 November 2009 (UTC)

Comment I chose the format in preference to video because I believe it will be more widely used than a video equivalent. IMO usefullness is easily as important as frames per second. Not all movies can be squashed into 256 colours, but flags are great candidates. 99of9 (talk) 02:46, 27 November 2009 (UTC)

- Pre-1917 paintings are not protected in Russia. Thinking about the current law -- Kardovsky died in 1943, thus in 2013 all his works will be in PD. But, as far as I know, Kardovsky's date of death removes his work from the coverage of the current civil law because of the regulations of the Law of Implementing a Civil Codex. That law states that only works of the authors who died after 1943 are under this current 70-years protection.--PereslavlFoto (talk) 15:34, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

Support Pity for the resolution, but the quality, educativeness and rarity of this free video gets my support! Diti the penguin — 19:20, 21 November 2009 (UTC)
- Comment I intentionally uploaded the lower resolution even as HD is available (because of people with low bandwidth). There is no problem to upload the HD version, you can watch it on Flickr for now. As there are close to no official rules for video now, I just did not know how to behave, whether to do low-res or high-res. --Kozuch (talk) 19:53, 21 November 2009 (UTC)
  - Low resolution (of course: low to a reasonable scale) is better, because of the bandwith. Remember that you aren't very likely to put an 800px wide video into an article. And even if you insert it as, say, 480px, it won't increase the speed of loading anyway. Wolf (talk) 20:06, 21 November 2009 (UTC)
    - Well, so I suppose current 640×360 pixels is not a real low-res for a video. If someone thinks this cant get featured at this resolution, I will upload HD.--Kozuch (talk) 20:15, 21 November 2009 (UTC)
  - I suspect in the long term we'll want high res, just as we do for photos. It can't be that hard to produce scaled down versions, but it's impossible to scale up. 99of9 (talk) 22:13, 21 November 2009 (UTC)

Oppose Right, its very educational and interesting, but this is commons and not wikipedia. And for videos the same rules should apply as for pictures. The composition is rather boring --Simonizer (talk) 20:04, 23 November 2009 (UTC)
- I think you completely miss a point here. There is no language and that means this video is nicely useful accross various projects and languages, that makes it uniques for a Commons (featured) candidate.--Kozuch (talk) 21:26, 23 November 2009 (UTC)
Oppose. I don't think you can see anything well enough - the bird is tiny, and we can't even see it feeding the chicks, just going into the box. It's nice, but not quite wow enough. --Silversmith Hewwo 21:36, 23 November 2009 (UTC)

Info: Das Problem des Bildes ist, dass der Bernina-Express als Hauptsache zur Nebensache wird. Das Bild ist groß genug, dass Du das Nebensächliche entfernen kannst. Vom See darf nur ein schmaler Streifen mit der Spiegelung des Zuges stehen bleiben, und auch vom Himmel kann ziemlich viel entfernt werden. Die Mindestgröße des Bildes (über 2 Millionen Pixel) muss erhalten bleiben. Dann hat der Zug mehr "Bodenhaftung", und das Panoramabild verstärkt die Wirkung des langen Zuges. --Michael Gäbler (talk) 13:38, 25 November 2009 (UTC)

~~Oppose~~ Oversaturated, also resolution is too low for a landscape shot IMO. -- Jovan Cormac 15:15, 20 November 2009 (UTC)
- Info: Jovan, this image has the colours and the saturation of the former Kodachrome 25 film. I worked with Kodachrome 25 in the years 1974–2001 and know what I say. Kodachrome 25 has been one of the best films with great sharpness, and I try to bring the Kodachrome 25 feeling into the digitally world. Maybe you worked in the past with other films and likes therefore another feeling with soft colours and saturation, but that is your own window to the world of photography and is ok for your own images. - This image has the resolution 2,602 × 1,645 pixels (4.28029 pixels), that's more than the double of the needed 2 million pixels. --Michael Gäbler (talk) 00:30, 21 November 2009 (UTC)
  - Hmm, after seeing this Kodachrome picture I'll have to say you're probably right, the saturation seems to be a feature of that specific film, though I would consider that image on the verge to being overexposed as well. Nevertheless, I believe that photography (especially landscape photography) should mirror reality as closely as possible, and I've certainly never seen grass as green as it is in your candidate shot. If I understood you correctly, this is a digital image that you edited to look like it was taken with the Kodachrome film. If that is the case, it should be clearly marked as auch ("retouched" template).
    As for the resolution, this is a matter of personal taste; I myself believe that landscape shots should have at least 6-8 Megapixels unless they are absolutely spectacular. -- Jovan Cormac 08:22, 21 November 2009 (UTC)
    - I retract my vote of "Oppose", the color issues have now been corrected AFAIC. Still don't know whether to support, though. The view is rather ordinary. -- Jovan Cormac 07:14, 23 November 2009 (UTC)
Neutral Actually leaning toward oppose due to the tight crop, but I do have an unhealthy-powerful zeal for giant photostitched landscapes, so I think that's probably influencing my opinion too much. —Notyourbroom (talk) 16:52, 20 November 2009 (UTC)

- Leafnode, what is your problem with my composition? Please see this Featured picture. It has the same composition. --Michael Gäbler (talk) 19:44, 21 November 2009 (UTC)
  
  And as it could be expected, I don't like the composition of the second photo either. And now why - horizon is in the middle, and as a consequence in this particular shot there's too much of the bottom part - even grass is rather boring. IMO this picture would be better with some cropping. --Leafnode✉ 12:49, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

Info: I made an update, cropped the Blumenwiese and made the green colour of the grass light. The "Blumenwiese" is an essential part of the high mountain region of Europa and IMO an important part of this image. Therefore I leaved a part of it. I didn't found any word for the "Blumenwiese" in the English language.
