[edit] Gold Coast (from The Spit)

I don't think that this photo lives up to featured picture standards. Not very contrasty, and there is too much sky (IMO).

I can't find the archive where this was voted on. Can you? BrokenSegue 01:37, 3 May 2005 (UTC)

I couldn't find it either --Fir0002 09:29, 3 May 2005 (UTC)

If you checked the archived discussion from this page from when we did the big renomination, you'd find [1]. Just so you know. ed g2s • talk 11:25, 3 May 2005 (UTC)

I've forgotten how we do de-listings. Surely some sort of tag or note should be placed on the image page to alert the original contributor and anyone else watching it. -- Solipsist 08:05, 5 May 2005 (UTC)

AFAIK we don't do delist that much, so there isn't a set of templates, or procedure for notifying the uploader. Feel free to create them. ed g2s • talk 12:31, 5 May 2005 (UTC)

• Keep This might go with a bit more contrast Ericd 14:04, 5 May 2005 (UTC)
• Keep - From the image's info page "This photo was taken the morning after a wild storm. I think it shows the essence of the Gold Coast, perched on the shore, the buildings disappearing into the sea-spray". - Bevo 16:00, 5 May 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Pretty in pastels, and adds significantly to Gold Coast. --Andrew 00:55, May 6, 2005 (UTC)
• Keep -It speaks to me, and does significantly add to Gold Coast. TomStar81 03:16, 6 May 2005 (UTC)

• Delist. Looks like a blurry tourist snapshot. Sandover 20:36, 7 May 2005 (UTC)
  • It's sharp ! Ericd 21:08, 7 May 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. It caught a moment of beauty. And it should not be artificially "enhanced." Pollinator 21:26, May 7, 2005 (UTC)
• Delist. It's all right, but if you let this kind of picture be featured, then the standards aren't high enough to bar any picture. Deltabeignet 22:38, 13 May 2005 (UTC)
  • I don't see any technical problem in this picture nor any problem in composition... So what ? it's pastel and people like saturated colors ? Ericd 14:43, 16 May 2005 (UTC)

Kept. 6-delist 5-keep - Bevo 16:59, 17 May 2005 (UTC)
