Info created by José Cruz - uploaded by Dantadd - nominated by João Felipe C.S --João Felipe C.S 21:10, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
Support Amazing view. João Felipe C.S 21:10, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
Oppose This nomination was declined less than a year ago. Lycaon 21:19, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
- And how long until it can be attempted again? Never? A year? -- Ram-Man 03:05, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
- There is no time limit that I know of, but the image has not improved meanwhile and was not withdrawn at that time... Lycaon 16:43, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
- In the last nomination someone voted against the image because they didn't think national flags should be featured. IMO, that's an invalid way to vote because the rules say nothing about banned classes of images. Remove that vote and it is one vote away from a support. That's close enough to merit a second try. In this case, you are voting simply because it was going to be reattempted? I don't consider that to be much of a reason. You should at least judge a picture on its own merits I think. This will likely fail much more conclusively this time, but at least the reasons for its failure will be stated. It should be given a chance to fail conclusively -- Ram-Man 00:01, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
- Fair enough. I still do think national flags should not be featured. Furthermore, the crop is kind of spoiling the image. Lycaon 18:39, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

- Support for now. July of last year is quite a while ago, even if it wasn't a complete year. The original nomination never garnered a large number of votes anyway, so I don't see a problem with trying it again. I specifically disagree with the idea that we can't feature a national flag. If it's a good picture, let's feature it. Even if we had a featured picture for every country's flag (unlikely of course), that still isn't a problem. -- Ram-Man 03:08, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
- Oppose While its nicer than "flat" flags, this is a little overkill on the motion --ShakataGaNai Talk 06:28, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
- I like the idea but don't like the cropped flagpole, so
Neutral for now. --norro 08:58, 16 May 2008 (UTC) Btw: I don't see any problem with featuring photographs of national flags. - Oppose I don't like the left part with the flagpole either. It makes the image seem tilted and a bit messy. Also if the image is borderline FP (due to last oppose) I prefer to not have it FP. /Daniel78 09:19, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
- Support--Laziale93 10:48, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
- Oppose for the same reason as last time. The image hasn't changed. --MichaelMaggs 17:21, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
- Support--Econt 20:37, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
- Oppose per Daniel78 -βαςεLXIV™ 12:59, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
- Oppose overkill in motion... Bthv 09:10, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
4 support, 6 oppose >> not featured -- Alvesgaspar 22:40, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
