Comment – I wonder if this image might be a good addition to the article Virgin of Los Remedios as well. At the moment that article is illustrated by two photos of figures of the Virgin herself, which are iconographically almost identical. The second one is small and low-quality (335 x 502 px) and it provides little information that isn't already provided by the first one; perhaps it could be replaced by the nominated photo of this altarpiece, which serves as a fantastically elaborate frame for a similar figure?

When you create a nom using Template:FPCnom, the article line says: "links to the article(s) that use this image, in order of where the image has highest encyclopedic value". The museum article wasn't listed initially, and it should be listed as the first article. In the museum article, this image has EV, but I wouldn't call it strong EV. It is placed at the end of the article, and it's competing (EV-wise) with a nice (though technically subpar) image in the infobox. Bammesk (talk) 17:28, 4 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I didn't listed the article initially because the image was added to it just days before the nomination. My apologies.

Comment – Looks somewhat blurry at full res. – Sca (talk) 13:46, 24 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose because of the perspective distortion caused by the use of a wide angle lens so close to subject. There's plenty of open space around the White Tower (compare, e.g., this photo, or the photo currently in the infobox for the article), so there's no need to get this close. The distortion is unnecessary and reduces the EV. I also find the ugly concrete platform and the figures in the foreground a little distracting. This is a perfectly fine holiday photo, but I don't think it rises to the level of FP. – Choliamb (talk) 15:12, 24 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Comment – Weak EV, FP criterion #5, it can't "help readers understand an article" when in the article it is so small and indistinct in a gallery. It's hardly noticeable. Bammesk (talk) 15:18, 25 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose – I actually like this scene showing some context around the tower, including people, but the photo is not technically perfect. Sharpness could be better and there is some chromatic aberration (most noticeable on the top). The top crop is too tight to my taste. Also colour saturation seems a bit too much.

18th Street "L" station, Chicago, 1904

Voting period is over. Please don't add any new votes. Voting period ends on 8 Mar 2023 at 22:45:17 (UTC)

**Original** – The station house for the 18th Street station on the Chicago "L" in 1904; it was demolished three years later and few pictures are known to survive of these structures.

Reason: Chicago first received rapid transit when the South Side Elevated Railroad opened on June 6, 1892. Ten stations opened that day, eight of which looked like this 1904 image of the station on 18th Street. The railroad subsequently expanded southward, but the station houses on the extension looked quite different from those on the original portion as depicted here.
Unfortunately, the city didn't like these street-level station houses that blocked under-track alley access. When the railroad wished to construct a third center track for express operations in 1907, they were only allowed to do so in exchange for demolishing these station houses and replacing them with mezzanines. Therefore, despite the historic significance of these station houses, pictures of them are rare; none were known to exist in 1995, and even today I know of only two other pictures of these houses, neither of which are of as good quality composition-wise as this.
While the rarity of these images should dovetail nicely with this particular image's EV, I am aware that it is rather small. It was originally even smaller, although it was the largest size available on the internet. I actually enlarged it and quadrupled its size (doubling each dimension) in the course of my restoration, but I fear that anything further will start stretching out any artifacts or other blurriness. I've e-mailed the Library of Congress for help in obtaining access any other possible copy of this negative that would yield a larger size if need be.

Seriously botched restoration. Please re-instate previous version. Janke | Talk 09:24, 10 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Strong oppose the last (9 March 2023) version. Please compare the original (Sep 2020) version with the last (9 March 2023) version. Everything in the image has become pixelated and the whole face changed (I suppose this is an AI regeneration), and curiously the eyes gained colour. Please note that the face in the original photo is out of focus (the focus is on his elbow and vaguely on the score) and this can't be restored. I would rather support the original version, even if technically not perfect. Also, per Commons overwriting rules the crop should be loaded on a separate file. --Lion-hearted85 (talk) 11:46, 10 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Support – I have performed a quick search on Commons of "pencil sharpener" and this, honestly, is the best one in terms of presentation, composition and quality. Even if there are dozens of different types of this tool, this deliberately illustrates one of them (instead of showing many), and I think it's quite a typical and common one to generically illustrate the pencil sharpener. I also think it's useful to show it in use. Overall, I find this image having good EV indeed. --Lion-hearted85 (talk) 11:55, 13 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
