- Reason

- Articles in which this image appears
- Nowruz, Goldfish.
- In other Wikis: نوروز, , Norouz, Nouruz and Nawrūz.

- Support as nominator – Mhhossein talk 13:07, 22 March 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose – This being en-WP, use in non-English articles doesn't count. It is used in one article here but the EV is weak, see FP criterion #5. It doesn't contribute to or enhance the article in a definitive way. For example if the article or its subsections did cover Nowruz related art, then it could have EV. On a sidenote: the image was added to the article on March 22, FP criterion #5 suggests waiting at least 7 days. Bammesk (talk) 02:58, 23 March 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose per Bammesk, does not appear to have sufficient EV in any English Wikipedia article. (t · c) buidhe 05:11, 24 March 2021 (UTC)
- EV: @Bammesk and Buidhe: I would like to turn your kind attention towards the fact that, among other things, the painting contains goldfish, water bowl and Sabze, all being the parts of the Haft-sin custom. The painting is depicting these things in an artistic manner. Actually this painting includes "Fire, Earth, Air, Water, and the three life forms of Humans, Animals and Plants." So I guess it is indeed adding to the understanding of the readers hence has EV. --Mhhossein talk 06:19, 24 March 2021 (UTC)
- The image is primarily an artistic depiction, rather than an informative depiction. The text of the article(s) don't delve into art though. Bammesk (talk) 03:31, 25 March 2021 (UTC)
- Throughout the human history, the best method for describing (giving information) on cultural events/symbols had near always been via art. I don't get the point why you say this symbolic painting does not have encyclopedic value. --Mhhossein talk 05:44, 27 March 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose This is a lovely painting, though not terribly informative (EV). Also, this digital rendition of the painting is not that high-quality. (Unsharp at full res etc.) Calliopejen1 (talk) 18:05, 31 March 2021 (UTC)

- Oppose – Lead image of its article and it has EV, but it isn't fully sharp, compare for example with [1], [2] or others at full size. Also the shadows aren't complementary, an overcast day can solve this. Bammesk (talk) 02:09, 23 March 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose entry level DLSR camera from some years ago cannot deliver FP. Charlesjsharp (talk) 22:33, 23 March 2021 (UTC)
- I disagree with judging Featured pictures based on camera type. I think evaluation should be based on the end result. If sharpness, noise or posterization etc are a problem then mention them specifically.--Commander Keane (talk) 05:17, 24 March 2021 (UTC)
- I assumed voters here would have a basic understanding of the limitations of a simple camera. Charlesjsharp (talk) 20:02, 25 March 2021 (UTC)
- 60D is above entry level (for canon that would be the Rebel series) and 2010 is into the "cameras are good enough under reasonable conditions" era.©Geni (talk) 06:23, 26 March 2021 (UTC)

- Support. Captivating look from the subject, interesting color mix overall, a bit of welcome bokeh on the flags. The shadow on one side of the face and the slightly off-center composition, and cutting off of the elbow mentioned above, add dynamicism. Wasted Time R (talk) 19:05, 28 March 2021 (UTC)
