- Comment – Seems seriously abstruse for most readers. Sca (talk) 14:29, 11 December 2015 (UTC)
- Comment It's well-made and of certain EV though. Mathematical topics like the one illustrated here are best explained with help of graphical depictions, in this case preferrably of several showing the individual consecutive steps of construction. --Tremonist (talk) 15:55, 11 December 2015 (UTC)

- Comment – I agree, File:Menger-Schwamm-Reihe.jpg is a better illustration, too bad it doesn't meet the 1500px criteria. Bammesk (talk) 03:29, 15 December 2015 (UTC)
- Oppose largely per Tremonist and Bammesk. These are hardly the most difficult renders, so no reason not to insist on the best. Adam Cuerden (talk) 02:16, 18 December 2015 (UTC)
- Comment – I agree File:Menger-Schwamm-Reihe.jpg seems a much more useful illustration of the concept to the layperson, and as per Adam Cuerden, a FP worthy version of it could be created without too much difficulty. Wolftick (talk) 06:30, 18 December 2015 (UTC)
- Oppose as above. Josh Milburn (talk) 10:55, 21 December 2015 (UTC)
