Paris from Notre Dame[edit]

I think this image is too small and blurred. --Daĉjo^почта 14:28, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

Nominate and delist. --Daĉjo^почта 14:28, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
Keep. Great scene, excellent use of shadow. Illustrates gargoyle perfectly, among other articles. It's also one of the few FPC nominations to get a large unanimous support when it was nominated. — BRIAN0918 • 2006-07-20 14:54
~~Keep~~ (see below)Your criticisms are valid: it is slightly unsharp, and doesn't meet minimum resolution requirements. But both of these issues could be fixed, and probably should be given the other positive aspects -- composition, exposure, etc. I'll put in a request to the original uploader to see if a higher resolution copy could be supplied. -- moondigger 15:14, 20 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep --Vircabutar 17:20, 20 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delist. As I said in April, this wouldn't make the cut today. A better shot can and should be taken. --Dante Alighieri | Talk 18:59, 20 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, featureworthy -- Chris 73 | Talk 15:45, 21 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delist. The area of the gargoyle is of exceptional quality, but the remainder of the image is blurred to an extent where it is impossible to see any defining details. -- AJ24 19:25, 21 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Weak delist - it's a nice photo and all, but not a high enough resolution. If somebody could get up to that spot and re-take this picture then that would be awesome, because the perspective is brilliant. --Jono (talk) 19:38, 21 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I'll see what I can do next time I'm by there. THEPROMENADER 23:30, 23 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delist unless higher res found The picture is excellent, but it doesn't meet the basic requirement. Night Gyr (talk/Oy) 13:33, 22 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Though would prefer a higher res version. --jjron 10:36, 23 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
weak keep Too small, wondeful content. HighInBC 23:38, 23 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Olegivvit 10:53, 24 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delist again. --Dschwen 18:21, 24 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delist - Great picture but far too small. -Seidenstud 04:15, 25 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delist - too small. —Aiden 21:03, 25 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delist. Having received no response to my request for a higher-resolution version that could be improved upon from the original uploader, I'm withdrawing my "Keep" vote. Maybe another Wikipedian visiting Notre Dame could take a similar photo. -- Moondigger 16:15, 29 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Retained as featured picture. I too am curious as to how photos survive delisting when, like this one, they'd be shot to pieces if nominated today, but that's not for me to worry about I suppose. Raven4x4x 09:45, 1 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
