Discussion of stability and nom completion - RESOLVED

- Does this appear in any articles? It needs to do so for a week before nominating. JJ Harrison (talk) 22:02, 2 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  - Looks like a WIP that ended up here. Speedy close? Pine^talk 09:01, 3 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I've added it to the article on Rote Nase, but the article is just a stub. It's today's POTD at the commons, which is probably how it got here. I might suggest suspending it for the necessary week to see if the article can be expanded and if the picture sticks, and then evaluating it as a normal nom.

I added as much info as I could find online without being able to speak German. Updated the picture caption to be in line with the info. Clegs (talk) 10:16, 3 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- This has now been suspended for the necessary week; unfortunately, I was able to find next to nothing to expand its stub article. Clegs (talk) 07:42, 11 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  - Are you interested in completing the nom? Two of the fields are still blank. I don't really feel like closing it, but if you think it's better to wait... Papa Lima Whiskey 2 (talk) 13:39, 11 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    - I've done all I can for the article, and nobody else seems to be interested. I guess we either need to speedy close it as an incomplete nom, or put it up for voting by the community. ~~I would oppose based on minimal EV, so~~ I'm guessing it would never pass. ~~Do whatever you think best.~~ It may also have some EV in Cable Car, where someone else has just put it up, so it may be worth letting go through the normal voting process and let it stand or fall on its own merits.

Neutral. Good quality, not much EV for Rote Nase, maybe some EV for cable car. Clegs (talk) 07:18, 13 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. There's something that feels slightly 'off' about the image; I think there's a bit of subtle over-processing. I don't know whether it was something that happened in-camera or was applied afterward, and I may be being too picky—it's only really jarring if I go pixel peeping. There are some artifacts of over-sharpening on the 'feet' of the car, and along parts of the cable. It also looks like the chroma noise filtering might have been a touch too aggressive; a lot of the rocks – particularly the ones peeking through the snow – have a very 'flat' look to them.) Overall, the picture is quite visually striking. TenOfAllTrades(talk) 14:22, 13 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment. Looks like aggressive luminance noise reduction, which is strange considering the low ISO. I'm not familiar with the camera used to take this picture, but I suspect the noise reduction was applied in-camera. The original unedited version can be found on the picture page. It's slightly darker and uncropped, but exhibits the very same noise reduction as the FPC. O.J. (talk) 18:52, 15 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
