Reason:
Being perhaps one of the most photographed landmarks of Lucerne, it is a little bit ambitious of me to nominate this image as VI. However, checking the other images of Wasserturm in WikiMedia, I really think this one has a chance to be VI on this scope. For you to decide... -- Murdockcrc (talk)
Comment This general scope contains plenty of good images. I think that the nominated photo meets the scope: The Old Water Tower in Lucerne where it should compete with the great photos of the subject we can find here...--MrPanyGoff 11:40, 19 January 2011 (UTC)
Thanks for the input. The problem is that the category you suggest is "View of Pilatus from Lucerne", and on my image mount Pilatus is not visible. However, people can indeed find other great images of the Wasserturm on that category for sure. I will update the scope. --Murdockcrc (talk) 16:39, 19 January 2011 (UTC)
I didn't suggest this category as a scope. I just found there many good images of this tower. The category in Commons we are talking about is not created yet. It should be created as a subcategory of Buildings in Lucerne and should be named after this tower if the tower has some name or just The Old Water Tower, Lucerne. Let others also give opinions for the scope. Just to mention (don't want to discourage you) but seeing the competitors I think that your photo has a little chance to win ;) --MrPanyGoff 17:50, 19 January 2011 (UTC)
Well, you can create a valued review and add some more candidates, and so make the nomination even more interesting :-) Thanks for the feedback. --Murdockcrc (talk) 18:08, 19 January 2011 (UTC)
* So, as I've understood after reading some sources, the tower and the covered bridge are the main landmarks of this town. Furthermore, they are both treated as an inseparable ensemble that is called Kapellbrücke and it has a category in commons. So we can finalize the scope as Kapellbrücke, Lucerne... what do you think?--MrPanyGoff 22:08, 19 January 2011 (UTC)
Scope changed from Wasserturm to The Old Water Tower in Lucerne --Murdockcrc (talk) 16:39, 19 January 2011 (UTC)
Please notify previous voters of this change. Remember: "A support vote that was made before a change of scope is not counted unless it is reconfirmed afterwards; an oppose vote is counted unless it is changed or withdrawn".
Reason:
Very beautiful, dynamic and informative perspective of the bridge and the tower with the Church of St. Leodegar in the background. -- MrPanyGoff
Support Support this one.--Jebulon (talk) 18:48, 26 January 2011 (UTC)
Reason:
Good perspective of the bridge with the whole tower visible. In addition the Pilatus mountain and the Jesuit church can be seen in the background. -- MrPanyGoff
Reason:
Wonderful picture of the dog at work. -- Mdupont (talk)
requires a suitable scope! --Archaeodontosaurus (talk) 14:42, 17 December 2010 (UTC)Info Missing a : in the scope, sorry. --- Mdupont (talk) 18:52, 17 December 2010 (UTC)
Support Shows dog in landscape of origin and with sheep. All criteria satisfied and best in scope. Walter Siegmund(talk) 21:38, 17 December 2010 (UTC)
Oppose I think that this one shows better the characteristics of the race. Alvesgaspar (talk) 21:23, 18 December 2010 (UTC)
Info this picture shows the dogs at work in natural habitat,should we change the scope to that? Sarplaninac at work? it would be an single image. 12:45, 19 December 2010 (UTC) This was from me --- Mdupont (talk) 07:59, 25 December 2010 (UTC)
Support Habitat is very important here --Archaeodontosaurus (talk) 10:12, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
Please notify previous voters of this change. Remember: "A support vote that was made before a change of scope is not counted unless it is reconfirmed afterwards; an oppose vote is counted unless it is changed or withdrawn".
Info I am changing to include the herd in the scope, because that is the important feature here. --Mdupont (talk) 10:48, 23 December 2010 (UTC)
Support agree with this new scope --Archaeodontosaurus (talk) 13:56, 23 December 2010 (UTC)
Comment I would support "Sarplaninac at work" as suggested in the unsigned info above. But I think it is best in scope for mainscope, too. Walter Siegmund(talk) 07:20, 25 December 2010 (UTC)
Info I formatted the scope such that it is without the Category word. It is really confusing that several scopes are used for images competing in an MVR. I do not think scope changes should be made in an MVR. I propose we keep this wordign though because it matches an existing category, and the other image in the MVR is not eligible due to missing geotag. --Slaunger (talk) 22:15, 25 December 2010 (UTC)
Support I agree with scope "Sarplaninac with Herd". Walter Siegmund(talk) 21:15, 30 January 2011 (UTC)
Reason:
As explained in other similar Šarplaninac nomination, this one shows very good the characteristics of the race. -- WhiteWriter speaks
Oppose nice pic. good details. but I prefer my candidate image better of course, I am biased. File:Murgjo Sharr Mountain Dog Nedi Limani.jpg, additionally the other one is a higher resolution and shows the dog at work. -- Mdupont (talk) 15:32, 23 December 2010 (UTC)
Oppose Not geocoded (criterion 5). Walter Siegmund(talk) 16:31, 23 December 2010 (UTC)
Oppose Per Walter. --Slaunger (talk) 22:16, 25 December 2010 (UTC)
Reason:
An outstanding portrait of Mark Twain. The eye-contact was the decisive thing here when choosing among the A. F. Bradley's photos. -- MrPanyGoff
Comment What bothers you? Hard to decide which one or you just have no interest in old black&white photos? ;)--MrPanyGoff 15:26, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
Neutral I am at a toss up whether this is the VI, or this one. The latter lacks the gaze, but has less shallow DoF and higher resolution. Jon C (talk) 04:05, 6 February 2011 (UTC)
Support I tend to prefer this one, because of the gaze. --Myrabella (talk) 14:35, 6 February 2011 (UTC)
Support agree with Myrabella.--Jebulon (talk) 17:45, 9 February 2011 (UTC)
Reason:
An earlier portrait of the writer as some alternative of the other nominations. -- MrPanyGoff
Comment I'd tend to prefer a portrait taken after Twain published The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, i.e. after 1884. --Myrabella (talk) 15:53, 6 February 2011 (UTC)
