[edit] University Library of Graz

front of the new building
front of the new building

The picture is used in the article University Library of Graz. Nominate and neutral, since I am the photographer - Dr. Marcus Gossler 15:22, 9 December 2005 (UTC)

  • Comment — The bright clouds in the left hand corner distracts from the photo. By the way, in the future, would you mind replacing the "Add your reasons for nominating it here; say what article it appears in, and who created the image." with a nomination statement? Thanks a lot! Flcelloguy (A note?) 19:09, 10 December 2005 (UTC)
The error is now corrected. --Dr. Marcus Gossler 20:44, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Oppose per my above comment. Flcelloguy (A note?) 17:18, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Oppose I'm not particularly fond of this photo. There really isn't anything spectacular. --vaeiou 03:55, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Support I know the building. It is amazing what this picture could make out of it. - Kessa Ligerro 13:48, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
  • That sounds more like a reason to Oppose it. This is still an encyclopedia. Apart from that I do not think it is particularly stunning. --Dschwen 14:55, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
For those of us who don't know the building, the picture seems quite boring. How is it amazing that this is what the picture could make of it? --vaeiou 16:47, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
  • My statement pointed to the fact that it is very difficult to make a good photo of the modern front of the library, because there is only a dark and narrow gap between it and another quite high building. But in spite of this obstacle the picture looks pretty good. --Kessa Ligerro 20:33, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Oppose - Though it is a picture of the building, I don't think that it contributes significantly to its article. If you argued it does significantly add to the article, then we might as well include all half-decent pictures of famous buildings, which we don't want to do. I do think it is a cool angle for the photo, but this photo really isn't what feature photos are supposed to be. P-unit 18:11, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Oppose. Agree with above, although I would also have opposed for the washed out clouds. Enochlau 22:28, 12 December 2005 (UTC)
  • ( − ) Oppose Agree with Enochlau --Fir0002 08:02, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
