[edit] Rome subway graffiti

Reason
Shameless self-nomination
Caption
What sets the Roman metro apart from that of many other European cities is that graffiti on its trains is near ubiquitous. This is a photograph of a one of the stations in central Rome, and the state of this particular train is pretty similar to the state of many other trains in the city.

  • Comment You'll definitely need a caption (just what station that is, something about the graffiti in the Roman metro and so on; it doesn't need to be an essay).
  • Support AHH!!! Vandalsim! Just kidding, seriously it looks pretty nice and illustrates the article well. ~ Arjun 21:46, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

  • Oppose Nothing dramaticly great about it - nice picture, but nothing that really "stands out" above other pictures. ≈ The Haunted Angel (The Forest Whispers My Name) 01:15, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Oppose Wrong angle, muddy colors, everyday topic. ~ trialsanderrors 01:30, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Oppose I fail to see how this is a FP! As pointed out in the nom. it is not unique, yet nor is it a particularly attractive photo or particularly good spray-art. Also, this doesn't repreesnt the Roman subway any more than any other ill-maintained metro system. Witty lama 01:58, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Oppose Right side unfocused, too dark/muddy, unspectacular. --TotoBaggins 02:40, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Oppose It is decent but when it comes down to it I must agree with trialsanderrors on this one.--γιατί Sign Here | ESP. 03:16, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Oppose — To me, graffiti is not FPC material. Too dark and stuff like that. Tohru Honda13 04:18, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
    • I disagree; we should have an FP of graffiti but this just isn't a very good shot --frothT 19:50, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
