Thank you for nominating this image. Unfortunately, it does not fall within the Guidelines and is unlikely to succeed for the following reason: the image is less than one half of a megapixel-- less than 25% of the normal cutoff. Are we certain no higher-resolution version exists? I would think it would be a shoo-in at an adequate level of resolution, so in that regard, this is a great find. --Notyourbroom (talk) 16:48, 22 March 2009 (UTC) | Anyone other than the nominator who disagrees may override this template by changing {{FPX}} to {{FPX contested}} and adding a vote in support. Voting will then continue in the usual way. If not contested within 24 hours, this nomination may be closed. |
Comment Please read Commons:Bundesarchiv. Higher resolutions are unfree. →Diti the penguin — 17:00, 22 March 2009 (UTC)
- Comment Thank you for that information, Diti-- your assumption that I did not know about the size restriction was correct. I leave anyone to challenge my FPX if they desire to, but I do feel it would be inconsistent with the concept of a FP to promote an extremely low-resolution image simply because a higher-resolution version would be unfree. An argument could be made that it would be a sort of provisional promotion in lieu of the higher-resolution version (which- one assumes- would be made available after a certain number of years) but at the very least, that would necessitate a template along the lines of "This FP must be replaced with a higher-resolution version when such a substitution becomes legal." All in all, I'm uncomfortable with the idea, and I do not withdraw my FPX. I appreciate your information on the matter, though. --Notyourbroom (talk) 17:20, 22 March 2009 (UTC)
- To expand upon my above comment slightly, I do think it would be good to have a category or template marking images such as this one as promising FPCs which simply do not have free high-resolution versions at this point in time. I don't think there ought to be any kind of formal voting process for this designation, but it could be a good idea for the future to mark relevant images for future consideration once a larger version of the image becomes available. I am a new member and do not know the best way to formalize this suggestion, but I encourage anyone interested in this idea to articulate and expand upon it in the appropriate forum. --Notyourbroom (talk) 17:34, 22 March 2009 (UTC)
- I have considered creating a page where people could list those types of images; however the number of great images that are hamped by small size is tremendous. Maybe something like Commons:Larger Needed? People could search for larger versions of those existing images. Sarcastic ShockwaveLover (talk) 18:26, 22 March 2009 (UTC)
Oppose Interesting image, but perhaps more suitable for VI. /Daniel78 (talk) 22:29, 22 March 2009 (UTC)
