File:Jardín_del_Príncipe,_Mahan,_Irán,_2016-09-22,_DD_28.jpg[edit]

  • Nomination Shazdeh Garden, Mahan, Iran --Poco a poco 19:35, 2 March 2017 (UTC)
  • Promotion
  •  Support Good quality. --A.Savin 10:47, 3 March 2017 (UTC)
  •  Oppose Much too distorted. That's no good image for me. Please discuss. -- Spurzem 14:18, 3 March 2017 (UTC)
  • Are you going to behave like this for a while, just curious? Poco a poco 20:45, 3 March 2017 (UTC)
  •  Question - I won't oppose promotion because of an obviously intentional distortion, but it is pretty drastic, and I'd be curious to hear from you on what you mean to bring out by having each side lean greatly to the same side on the bottom. -- Ikan Kekek 10:11, 4 March 2017 (UTC)
  •  Comment There is no other way to provide a centered view of the building with good detail than standing in front of it, as behing it there is a very long water change that doesn't allow you to be centered. My intention was to provide a centered detail view of the key building in this UNESCO garden, and there was no other way to do it Poco a poco 11:53, 4 March 2017 (UTC)
  •  Question - What would happen if you applied perspective correction to the photo? -- Ikan Kekek 13:37, 4 March 2017 (UTC)
  • Are we talking some correction or are you asking for it to look completely straight? The latter would ruin the image, IMO.--Peulle 19:46, 4 March 2017 (UTC)
  • I was talking some correction. But how would making it completely straight ruin the photo? -- Ikan Kekek 00:24, 5 March 2017 (UTC)
  •  Comment There is simply no space left for a perspective correction. Besides, such extreme stretching is bad for the quality. --A.Savin 02:39, 5 March 2017 (UTC)
  •  Comment That's what I meant, yes.--Peulle 13:20, 5 March 2017 (UTC)
  •  Support Seeing how the park looks, it's impossible to get a center shot at the whole building unless you stand in one of the pools (probably not allowed). Not even with a telephoto lens since you got the trees blocking the view then. I think this is a creative solution to a tricky problem. --W.carter 19:58, 4 March 2017 (UTC)
  •  Support Good quality--Ermell 20:01, 5 March 2017 (UTC)

File:Combe_Laval59.jpg[edit]

  • Nomination Route Combe Laval, France --Zoppo59 11:09, 2 March 2017 (UTC)
  • Promotion
  •  Support Good quality. --A.Savin 14:16, 2 March 2017 (UTC)
  • Pic is good enough but the description is way too light, a QI needs to be more described. --Selbymay 08:51, 3 March 2017 (UTC)
  •  Comment - I think the description, which just gives the name of the route, is sufficient, provided that geolocation is added. -- Ikan Kekek 10:14, 4 March 2017 (UTC)
  •  Oppose Great view but it lacks detail IMHO Poco a poco 11:55, 4 March 2017 (UTC)
  • ✓ DoneI added coords and tried to get more sharpness, hope that works...--Zoppo59 (talk) 19:11, 4 March 2017 (UTC)
  •  Support OK for me. --Basotxerri 21:16, 4 March 2017 (UTC)
  •  Support Somewhat noisy, but a stunning composition. --Palauenc05 22:59, 4 March 2017 (UTC)
  •  Support - Not that noisy to this viewer. -- Ikan Kekek 00:22, 5 March 2017 (UTC)

File:Volvo EC140BLC digger.jpg[edit]

  • Nomination Volvo EC140BLC digger in Risør, Norway.--Peulle 23:56, 1 March 2017 (UTC)
  • Promotion
  • Location category missing --A.Savin 14:06, 2 March 2017 (UTC)
  • ✓ Done--Peulle 14:34, 2 March 2017 (UTC)
  •  Comment I'm sorry sir, but I'd like it more precise --A.Savin 10:42, 3 March 2017 (UTC)
  •  Comment I don't understand. No more precise category exists; if I create a "EC140BLC in Norway" category, this will be the only image in it. Is that what you want?--Peulle 12:12, 3 March 2017 (UTC)
  •  Comment Some common sense is what I permanently miss here. What about Risør, or when there is no such category the district (or Transport in xxx district etc.) or similar level, I don't know what you have in Norway, surely you should know better and not me. --A.Savin 13:01, 3 March 2017 (UTC)
  •  Comment I understand now. :) I do know better, which is why in my opinion I have already made the best choice available; Risør is a very small town in Norway, certainly not worthy of a separate excavator category. Unless categories should be created for every single town in every country, which I think you'll agree would be ridiculous. As for creating the specific "EC140BLC by country" cats, that could be a possibilty but right now there are only 4 images of the EC140BLC on Commons, so I'm not sure it warrants sorting into further categories. Should we create them?--Peulle 13:31, 3 March 2017 (UTC)
  •  Comment Because it is a small town, a photo taken there should not be added to its category? --A.Savin 14:51, 3 March 2017 (UTC)
  • You're after some permanent solution of common sense; adding a town name category to every single image on Commons is not sensible, IMO. Only when categories grow with lots of images does that kind of sorting become necessary. A category with 4 images does not need these 4 images split up into 4 different subcategories.--Peulle 15:15, 3 March 2017 (UTC)
  •  Comment Wrong. I didn't want you to create whatever subcategories, all I demanded was to use location category. EOD for me here, it's really useless. --A.Savin 15:20, 3 March 2017 (UTC)
This isn't going anywhere; as I consider the categories sufficient with country category, I'll move this to CR.--Peulle 15:27, 3 March 2017 (UTC)
  •  Comment Instead of simply adding a category, now moving to CR. Wow. --A.Savin 15:39, 3 March 2017 (UTC)
  •  Comment Don't give me that passive aggressive attitude; you are saying that there should be a category for each town on each excavator (instead of country, which I have used). I disagree since that would negate the whole point of sorting into categories (a category should contain several images and if each category has only a single image, there is no point in using them at all). The point is that we cannot agree. Therefore moving to CR for further opinions is the correct approach. My  Question to the group is: are the current categories sufficient?--Peulle 14:32, 4 March 2017 (UTC)
  • This is a lie. I didn't say "for each excavator". Fot the town only: yes, but I suppose Risør has one. --A.Savin 16:33, 4 March 2017 (UTC)
  • There is a Risør category (used for buildings and landscape), but since you said: "Transport in xxx district etc." I thought you meant for me to create the category "excavators in Risør" (or worse: "Volvo EC140BLC in Risør"). As I said above, I think such categorization would be too much. As for the Risør transport category, it is used for roads and ships, not construction machines. --Peulle 16:48, 4 March 2017 (UTC)
  • This category not only "for buildings and landscape", but for any photo taken in R. or related to R. So, if I write "Location category should be added", I mean this category, unless there is a more specified one. It's a shame I've to waste my time to explain self-evident things. --A.Savin 02:34, 5 March 2017 (UTC)
  •  Support Enough said. I've added the missing category for you. Next time you please nominate with sufficient categorization, otherwise I'll reserve me the right to decline straightaway. Thanks --A.Savin 13:24, 5 March 2017 (UTC)
  •  Question So you believe this image, which in itself has little to do with the town of Abingdon, should have an Abingdon category? I think such a strategy would clutter the categories on Commons.--Peulle 13:40, 5 March 2017 (UTC)
  •  Comment If I were the photographer, I would have added it too. For all photos where the location is theoretically identifiable like in the excavator photo, it is mandatory. Besides, the name of the town is written in the file description. So, if you think the photo has nothing to do with R., I wonder why did you write R. in the file description. --A.Savin 14:06, 5 March 2017 (UTC)

File:Akan MHNT.ETH.2010.25.251.jpg[edit]

  • Nomination Akan Gold Weight, Geometric weight, indented-patterned --Ercé 07:29, 27 February 2017 (UTC)
  • Decline
  •  Oppose Exactly the same problem as another similar picture pending on CR. Too much of plain white, and the weight is oversharpened. --A.Savin 16:19, 27 February 2017 (UTC)
  •  Question A.Savin, what are the indications (or effects) of oversharpening in this picture? Overly bright details that aren't so clear at full size? -- Ikan Kekek 11:19, 28 February 2017 (UTC)
  •  Comment The indication is that there is lack of detail on the object's surface, whereas noise and artefacts are very clearly visible. My IMHO. --A.Savin 15:22, 28 February 2017 (UTC)
  • Thanks for explaining. -- Ikan Kekek 13:25, 1 March 2017 (UTC)
  •  Support Perhaps it is not excellent but good for QI. Please discuss. -- Spurzem 14:24, 3 March 2017 (UTC)
  •  Oppose I agree with A.Savin here; looking at the shadow by the base, it seems like the image has been oversharpened. I would expect more from a studio shot like this, and similar images in this series are of higher quality so it's clearly possible.--Peulle 14:37, 4 March 2017 (UTC)

File:Molino_de_agua_de_Koushk-e-no,_Yazd,_Irán,_2016-09-21,_DD_23-25_HDR.jpg[edit]

  • Nomination Water channel in the water mill of Koushk-e-no, Yazd, Iran --Poco a poco 19:35, 2 March 2017 (UTC)
  • Decline
  •  Oppose Insufficient DOF, I'm afraid. Most of the channel is quite unsharp. --C messier 11:16, 2 March 2017 (UTC)
  • Tough review, may I hear some other voices? --Poco a poco 21:28, 2 March 2017 (UTC)
  •  Oppose Not that tough, the main subject is the water and it's unsharp. Sorry. --Selbymay 08:44, 3 March 2017 (UTC)
  • Weak  Support. Somewhat low DOF, but if the water is moving, it can not be pinsharp. 2 seconds exposure time, so blur is ok. --Smial 10:36, 3 March 2017 (UTC)
 Comment Of course the long exposure makes the water appeared to be blurred, but the close banks are blurred.--Selbymay 11:00, 3 March 2017 (UTC)
  •  Oppose It's a close call; the bricks close to the camera are sharp and I don't care about the water, but I'd really wish the walls further away from the camera were sharper. You don't happen to have an image available with different aperture setting?--Peulle 13:37, 3 March 2017 (UTC)
  •  Comment No, I've only this image. The spot was not goog illuminated, therefore if you want it sharpe it should be a long exposure. IMHO the unsharpness at the bottom is not dramatic. Poco a poco 08:53, 4 March 2017 (UTC)
  •  Oppose Sorry, but the water + lower banks are indeed without any detail. --A.Savin 13:18, 5 March 2017 (UTC)

File:Nicosia 01-2017 img10 Archbishops Palace.jpg[edit]

  • Nomination Nicosia: Archbishop's Palace --A.Savin 16:02, 26 February 2017 (UTC)
  • Promotion
  •  Oppose The perspective has not been successful; the left top corner is stretching too far upwards.--Peulle 16:59, 26 February 2017 (UTC)
  •  Comment @Peulle: Let me disagree. If you scroll thru the left wall, you will see it's perfectly vertical. --A.Savin 17:14, 26 February 2017 (UTC)
  •  Comment Yes, but the horizontal lines are so far from the horizon that the whole building looks stretched.--Peulle 22:19, 26 February 2017 (UTC)
  •  Comment I'd like to have third opinion. --A.Savin 13:57, 2 March 2017 (UTC)
 Support Good enough for QI. Perspective correction is not that disturbing. --Selbymay 09:01, 3 March 2017 (UTC)
