Scope | Nominated as the most valued image on Commons within the scope: Edward Sabine, photograph |
Used in | fr:Edward Sabine, en:Edward Sabine etc... |
Reason | New category for this Irish officer, known as astronomer, geophysicist, ornithologist (Sabine's gull), explorer, and the 30th President of the Royal Society. He was one of the first specialists of the Earth magnetic field. He participated in Arctic exploration. A crater on the moon is named after him. Only photograph we have in "Commons" (there is one in en:wp, but not so good, and not transferable). Best in scope IMO. Home work, no geocode is needed. -- Jebulon (talk) |
