An FP has been nominated for deletion on the Commons

[edit]

A photograph (File:Lincoln, NE EF3 tornado.jpg) has been nominated for deletion on the Wikimedia Commons. I am not sure what the procedure is, so I am mentioning it here. The Weather Event Writer (Talk Page) 20:44, 2 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If we're going to start allowing 3D models as featured pictures, we may as well start allowing all kinds of educational high quality non-text multimedia that fit in, such as audio. Imo, we should rename the project to Featured Multimedia. ―Howard🌽33 20:26, 30 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I’m against adding audio because that’s not visual. I don’t think renaming this project is necessary either. Regards, Armbrust The Homunculus 20:57, 30 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Agree with Armbrust. OTOH, a picture of a 3D model is a picture... Janke | Talk 12:52, 31 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Grounds for delisting?

[edit]

File:Chicago_Skyline_Hi-Res.jpg dates to 2006. There have been multiple changes to the Chicago skyline since then, including the construction of Trump International Hotel and Tower (Chicago), the vertical expansion of Blue Cross Blue Shield Tower, and probably much more. Is this grounds for delisting? I rather think it is, as the image's encyclopedic value is much diminished. Thank you for your consideration. 199.66.14.55 (talk) 20:01, 10 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Just being dated is not sufficient to delist. We do have historic and semi-historic FPs after all. The photo shows the skyline in 2006. There is value in that. The photo can serve and enhance various articles as is, for example in sections describing the history or the development of metropolitan Chicago. Bammesk (talk) 19:41, 14 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Anyone got anything that needs restoring that falls under {{PD-US-expired-abroad}}?

[edit]

Kind of want to get away from Commons for a bit. Things are very, very broken over there just now. Adam Cuerden (talk)Has about 8.8% of all FPs. 02:16, 19 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
