I am sad every time I visit the full list of images and no longer see this image there. The reasons for removing this image from FP given during the last vote by Janderk were somewhat misguided -- Berber and Tuareg suggest that there are indeed a fair number of fair-skinned blue- and green-eyed people who wear the turbans of the Blue People. As most of the concurring Oppose votes referred back to his comments, I am resubmitting the image here. +sj + 09:05, 28 Dec 2004 (UTC)

  • Nominate and support. First vote here - +sj + 09:05, 28 Dec 2004 (UTC)
    • "As most of the concurring Oppose votes referred back to his comments". Acutally two of the oppose votes referred to Janderk's opinion and there were eight oppose votes in total. ed g2s • talk 16:42, 28 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Suspend nomination. The last vote finished on the 2nd December. Although the time between nominations is not explicitly defined, less than 1 month is far too short. ed g2s • talk 16:42, 28 Dec 2004 (UTC)
    • Wikipedia talk:Featured picture candidates#Re-nom.3F was the last time we discussed setting a guideline for time between renominations. I would like to see a 1 month guideline explicitly recommended, just so we have something to refer to when someone suspends a renomination like ed g2s has done with this one. - Bevo 18:42, 28 Dec 2004 (UTC)
      • Indeed, although I'd suggest 2-3 months at least. BTW I wasn't assuming authority to suspend this nomination, merely recommending it. Although unless there is a backlash against this in next 24/48 hours I will move it to the archive. ed g2s • talk 21:48, 28 Dec 2004 (UTC)
    • FWIW, I agree with Ed that one would expect at the very least about 2-3 months between re-nominations. James F. (talk) 08:35, 31 Dec 2004 (UTC)
    • Agree. Enochlau 02:51, 1 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Support. Hello people, does this matter? Shoot it down again if you really hate it. JediMaster16 03:50, 1 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Sure. Oppose. Doesn't strike me or make me go wow; also, the colour in the photo is somewhat bland and heavily subdued. Enochlau 12:06, 1 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Suspend or otherwise Oppose, dull colors and not stunning. BrokenSegue 15:17, 1 Jan 2005 (UTC)
    • Withdrawn. Not enough time since last nomintation. ed g2s • talk 01:55, 2 Jan 2005 (UTC)
    • Support Blue or green eyes are much more common than people believe in Lybia and Tunisia, and blue eyes are common among Tuaregs. Ericd 22:23, 17 Jan 2005 (UTC)
