Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates
![]() | Skip to: |
![]() Featured pictures are images that add significantly to articles, either by illustrating article content particularly well, or being eye-catching to the point where users will want to read its accompanying article. Taking the adage that "a picture is worth a thousand words", the images featured on Wikipedia:Featured pictures should illustrate a Wikipedia article in such a way as to add significantly to that article, according to the featured picture criteria.
If you believe an image should be featured, create a subpage (use the "For Nominations" field, below) and add the subpage to the current nominations section. For promotion, if an image is listed here for ten days with five or more reviewers in support and the consensus is in its favor, it can be added to the Wikipedia:Featured pictures list. Consensus is generally regarded to be a two-thirds majority in support, including the nominator and/or creator of the image; however, anonymous votes are generally disregarded, as are opinions of sockpuppets. All users may comment. However, only those who have been on Wikipedia for 25 days and with at least 100 edits will be included in the numerical count. If necessary, decisions about close candidacies will be made on a case-by-case basis. Nominations started in December are given three extra days, due to the holidays slowing down activity here. The archive contains all opinions and comments collected for candidate nominations and their nomination results. If you nominate an image here, please consider also uploading and nominating it at Commons to help ensure that the pictures can be used not just in the English Wikipedia but on all other Wikimedia projects as well.
A featured picture can be nominated for delisting if you feel it no longer lives up to featured picture standards. You may also request a featured picture be replaced with a superior image. Create a subpage (use the "For Delists" field, below) and add the subpage to the current nominations section. Please leave a note on the talk page of the original FPC nominator (and creator/uploader, if appropriate) to let them know the delisting is being debated. The user may be able to address the issues and avoid the delisting of the picture. For delisting, if an image is listed here for ten days with five or more reviewers supporting a delist or replace, and the consensus is in its favor, it will be delisted from Wikipedia:Featured pictures. Consensus is generally regarded to be a two-thirds majority in support, including the nominator. Note that anonymous votes are generally disregarded, as are opinions of sockpuppets. However, images are sometimes delisted despite having fewer than five in support of their removal, and there is currently no consensus on how best to handle delist closures, except that:If the image to be delisted is not used in any articles by the time of closure, it must be delisted. If it is added to articles during the nomination, at least one week's stability is required for the nomination to be closed as "Kept". The nomination may be suspended if a week hasn't yet passed to give the rescue a chance. Outside of the nominator, all voters are expected to have been on Wikipedia for 25 days and to have made a minimum of 100 edits. If necessary, decisions about close candidacies will be made on a case-by-case basis. As with regular nominations, delist nominations are given three extra days to run if started in December.

Is my monitor adjusted correctly? ![]() In a discussion about the brightness of an image, it is necessary to know if the computer display is properly adjusted. Displays differ greatly in their ability to show shadow detail. There are four dark grey circles in the adjacent image. If you can discern three (or even four) of the circles, your monitor can display shadow detail correctly. If you see fewer than three circles, you may need to adjust the monitor and/or computer display settings. Some displays cannot be adjusted for ideal shadow detail. Please take this into account when voting. ![]() Displays also differ greatly in their ability to show highlight detail. There are light grey circles in the adjacent image. If you can discern three (or even four) of the circles, your monitor can display highlight detail correctly. If you see fewer than three circles, you may need to adjust the monitor and/or computer display settings (probably reduce the contrast setting). Some displays cannot be adjusted for ideal highlight detail. Please take this into account when voting. ![]() On a gamma-adjusted display, the four circles in the color image blend into the background when seen from a few feet (roughly 75–150 cm) away. If they do not, you could adjust the gamma setting (found in the computer's settings, not on the display), until they do. This may be very difficult to attain, and a slight error is not detrimental. Uncorrected PC displays usually show the circles darker than the background. Note that the image must be viewed in original size (263 × 68 pixels) - if enlarged or reduced, results are not accurate. Note that on most consumer LCD displays (laptop or flat screen), viewing angle strongly affects these images. Correct adjustment on one part of the screen might be incorrect on another part for a stationary head position. Click on the images for more technical information. If possible, calibration with a hardware monitor calibrator is recommended. |

- A rather masterful illustration of a "fictional relationship that causes controversy", a concept somewhat difficult to illustrate through CC! My friend drew this image on my suggestion for the Shipping discourse article.

- Comment - I'm torn. On the oppose end, Wikipe-tan and Commons-tan are not prominent figures in the shipping community, and being abstract idealizations of these projects, they don't have set ages that illustrate the age gap in a meaningful fashion. On the support end, we're not going to get free images of the copyrighted characters that dominate the shipping community, and frankly I love the Renoir vibes. This is a useful image... I'm just not sure that it meets the FP threshold. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 16:30, 26 August 2024 (UTC)

- Reason
- The best picture from this period of her life, and includes the manuscript of her autobiography, which is helpful. Composition is way better than the other image presumably from that same session. Downside: Not the lead image, and the article has many of her, but I think the manuscript helps a lot with EV, as it gives it something unique compared to the other photos.

- Reason
- It is true that the original video quality is only 240p, however I think its historical value as the first video ever uploaded to YouTube vindicates it. As far as I am aware, restoration or remastering is unnecessary since this is how the video was originally uploaded. The video was also selected as media of the day on Commons.

This is a historical artifact, with a good article on it, and a very important piece of the internet timeline. We've previously featured File:Trojan Room coffee pot xcoffee.png, which was in its native resolution, so there is precedent for resolutions lower than "minimum" for works such as this. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 22:07, 24 August 2024 (UTC)

- Reason
- Excellent portrait that was previously nominated in 2020. I've added a bit of a blurb on the viral image, and found a higher resolution presentation that was Tweeted by NASA, so all of the criticisms from the first nomination should be dealt with.

- They're from File:Man With A Movie Camera (Dziga Vertov, 1929).webm, but retimed for this video. The film doesn't really have intertitles, so the closed captions are limited to like 4 sentences from the opening titles and a few short phrases that appear on signs. hinnk (talk) 22:35, 20 August 2024 (UTC)
- You mean File:Man With A Movie Camera (Dziga Vertov, 1929).ogv? I noticed that there is a dearth of text, but the explanation of the film's conceit at 1:00 is long enough that new copyright could have been attracted for the translation. The Internet Archive does not give a source for their digitization (the source of the .ogv), and so I can't see where the closed captions come from.

It's worth noting that this video is impacted by phabricator:T362831 (MediaWiki not transcoding HDR properly), so you'll notice the UHD source has HDR but the HD transcodes that MediaWiki produces are in SDR without a proper tonemapping. For cases like this, I'm not sure if it would be better to add a notice to the file page advising readers of the difference or do a UHD upload in SDR. It's a good transfer with encyclopedic value, so if that question can be settled, I'd support. hinnk (talk) 21:13, 7 August 2024 (UTC)
- I have an alt I'd like to add, but unfortunately I've been trying to upload it since Saturday and gotten nothing but upload errors (seems to be because of phab:T129621). I'd like to ask for the nomination to be suspended until I can get the alt uploaded, so we avoid having to go through a delist-and-replace nomination after this closes. If anyone here's an admin on Commons and can speedy delete c:File:His Girl Friday (1940, SDR).webm, that might help things along. hinnk (talk) 02:50, 15 August 2024 (UTC)
- Just got a fix uploaded to File:His Girl Friday (1940, SDR).webm. It's identical to the original nomination except for the color space, so the playback should have more sensible contrast levels. Support that as alt 1. hinnk (talk) 02:57, 17 August 2024 (UTC)

- @Carlosmarkos2345, Moonreach, Yann, Vinícius94, and Hamid Hassani: An alternative was added to the nomination. Could you indicate which version(s) you support? Regards, Armbrust The Homunculus 07:29, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
- I don't really understand the benefit of the new version, specially the advantage of SDR for old films and black and white videos. To me, it seems to have more contrast. Is it really the case, or a side-effect? Which version is more faithful to the original film? Yann (talk) 14:43, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
- I second this uncertainty. While I can see that the alt has slightly higher contrast, the difference between the two is so slight that I don't feel qualified to say what standards should be used to decide which is superior. Moonreach (talk) 18:06, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
- I agree with Yann that it'd be better to show it in HDR than to not. That said, what's happening is most people will never see an HDR video on Wikipedia because they'll use the default playback, which is always in SDR.
- The "Source" playback on the original file can be used as a reference. That's in HDR, and if you have a display that properly handles HDR, there'll be a big difference between that and the default "HD 1080p" SDR playback (on that or on a color video, for example). With the transcodes on the original, there's no tonemapping at all, so it looks least like the film. With alt 1, the source file had the tonemapping applied when I converted it from HDR, so the transcodes will look more like the film. hinnk (talk) 18:33, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
- I'll support the alt too, if that's what it takes to get this over the finish line. Moonreach (talk) 15:09, 20 August 2024 (UTC)

Closing procedure
[edit]A script is available that automates the majority of these tasks: User:Jujutacular/closeFPC
When NOT promoted, perform the following:
- Place the following text at the bottom of the WP:FPC/subpage:
{{FPCresult|Not promoted| }} --~~~~
- Do NOT put any other information inside the FPCresult template. It should be copied and pasted exactly.
- If the nominator is new to FPC, consider placing
{{subst:NotpromotedFPC|Image name}}
on their talk page. To avoid overuse, do not use the template when in doubt.
When promoted, perform the following:
- Place the following text at the bottom of the WP:FPC/subpage:
{{FPCresult|Promoted|File:FILENAME.JPG}} --~~~~
- Replace FILENAME.JPG with the name of the file that was promoted. It should show up as:
- Promoted File:FILENAME.JPG
- Do NOT put any other information inside the FPCresult template. It should be copied and pasted exactly.
- Add the image to:
- Template:Announcements/New featured content - newest on top, remove the oldest so that 15 are listed at all times.
- Wikipedia:Goings-on - newest on bottom.
- Wikipedia:Featured pictures thumbs - newest on top.
- Add the image to the proper sub-page of Wikipedia:Featured pictures - newest on top.
- The caption for a Wikipedian created image should read "Description at Article, by Creator". For a non-Wikipedian, it should be similar, but if the creator does not have an article, use an external link if appropriate. For images with substantial editing by one or more Wikipedians, but created by someone else, use "Description at Article, by Creator (edited by Editor)" (all editors involved should be clear from the nomination). Additionally, the description is optional - if it's essentially the same as the article title, then just use "Article, by Creator". Numerous examples can be found on the various Featured Pictures subpages.
- Add the image to the appropriate section of Wikipedia:Featured pictures - newest on left and remove the oldest from the right so that there are always three in each section.
- Add the Featured Picture tag and star to the image page using {{Featured picture|page_name}} (replace page_name with the nomination page name, i.e., the page_name from Wikipedia:Featured_picture_candidates/page_name). To add this template you most likely will have to click the "create" button on the upper right if the "edit" button is not present, generally if the image originates from Commons.
- If an edited or alternative version of the originally nominated image is promoted, make sure that all articles contain the Featured Picture version, as opposed to the original.
- Notify the nominator or co-nominators by placing {{subst:PromotedFPC|File:file_name.xxx}} on each nominator's talk page. For example: {{subst:PromotedFPC|File:Blue morpho butterfly.jpg}}.
- If the image was created by a Wikipedian, place {{subst:UploadedFP|File:file_name.xxx}} on the creator's talk page. For example: {{subst:UploadedFP|File:Blue morpho butterfly.jpg}}.
Then perform the following, regardless of the outcome:
- Move the nomination entry to the top of the "Recently closed nominations" section. It will remain there for three days after closing so others can review the nomination. This is done by simply moving the line
{{Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Page name}}
to the top of the section. - Add the nomination entry to the bottom of the August archive. This is done by simply adding the line
{{Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Page name}}
from this page to the bottom of the archive. - If the nomination is listed at Template:FPC urgents, remove it.
Delist closing procedure
[edit]Note that delisting an image does not equal deleting it. Delisting from Featured pictures in no way affects the image's status in its article/s.
If consensus is to KEEP featured picture status, and the image is used in at least one article, perform the following:
- Check that the image has been in the article for at least one week. Otherwise, suspend the nomination to give it time to stabilize before continuing.
- Place the following text at the bottom of the WP:FPC/delist/subpage:
{{FPCresult|Kept|}} --~~~~
- Do NOT put any other information inside the FPCresult template. It should be copied and pasted exactly.
- Optionally leave a note on the picture's talk page.
If consensus is to DELIST, or the image is unused (and consensus is not for a replacement that is used), perform the following:
- Place the following text at the bottom of the WP:FPC/delist/subpage:
{{FPCresult|Delisted|}} --~~~~
- Do NOT put any other information inside the FPCresult template. It should be copied and pasted exactly.
- Replace the
{{Featured picture}}
tag from the image with{{FormerFeaturedPicture|delist/''Image name''}}
. - Remove the image from the appropriate sub-page of Wikipedia:Featured pictures and the appropriate section of Wikipedia:Featured pictures thumbs.
If consensus is to REPLACE (and at least one of the images is used in articles), perform the following:
- Place the following text at the bottom of the WP:FPC/delist/subpage:
{{FPCresult|Replaced|}} with File:NEW_IMAGE_FILENAME.JPG --~~~~
- Do NOT put any other information inside the FPCresult template. It should be copied and pasted exactly.
- Replace NEW_IMAGE_FILENAME.JPG with the name of the replacement file.
- Replace the
{{Featured picture}}
tag from the delisted image with{{FormerFeaturedPicture|delist/''Image name''}}
. - Update the replacement picture's tag, adding the tag {{Featured picture|delist/image_name}} (replace image_name with the nomination page name, i.e., the image_name from Wikipedia:Featured_picture_candidates/delist/image_name). Remove any no longer applicable tags from the original, replacement and from any other alternatives. If the alternatives were on Commons and no longer have any tags, be sure to tag the description page with {{missing image}}.
- Replace the delisted Featured Picture in all articles with the new replacement Featured Picture version. Do NOT replace the original in non-article space, such as Talk Pages, FPC nominations, archives, etc.
- Ensure that the replacement image is included on the appropriate sub-page of Wikipedia:Featured pictures and the appropriate section of Wikipedia:Featured pictures thumbs. Do this by replacing the original image with the new replacement image; do not add the replacement as a new Featured Picture.
Then perform the following, regardless of the outcome:
- Move the nomination entry to the top of the "Recently closed nominations" section. It will remain there for three days after closing so others can review the nomination. This is done by simply moving the line
{{Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/delist/Image name}}
to the top of the section. - Add the nomination entry to the bottom of the archived delist nominations. This is done by simply adding the line
{{Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/delist/Image name}}
to the bottom of the appropriate section of the archive. - If the nomination is listed at Template:FPC urgents, remove it.

- I feel sometimes like there's a double-standard on photos of famous people. Old photos, especially those in black and white, never seem to face this particular challenge, even though their compositions are otherwise often similar. Moonreach (talk) 18:03, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
- That's largely due to the relative rarity of photos before the modern era. Spielberg must have been photographed on film sets and at movie-related events on many thousands of occasions. Nick-D (talk) 22:36, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
- While I don't doubt they exist, is it a fair comparison to make if none of them are free use? I went through all the photos in the Commons category "Steven Spielberg by year," and the only high-resolution one I found that sort of shows what he does for work is this. The fact that Spielberg is still alive and a better photo could be taken of him is technically true, but it's also hypothetical. Moonreach (talk) 14:51, 19 August 2024 (UTC)

- The resolution is low 1,471 × 2,205 pixels for a 2023 photo, it borderline fails FP criterion #2. The camera has much higher resolution. Otherwise a nice portrait.

Head suffers from motion blur, subject is partially cropped off, parts of the subject is too dark to see, parts of the animals are out of focus, and the detail is too low. (fails criteria #1, #2, and #3). There are better photos of this insect on the web. – ZZZ'S 04:57, 14 August 2024 (UTC)
- Looking closely I did notice that it was a little blurry. You are right about the motion blur at the head and the heavy shadows. I think I agree with you. Sometimes I don't understand things well and when I think I do, the picture ends up being out of focus.

- Reason
- Ivan was a major hurricane and news story in 2004. This is a good shot of a cyclonic eye from above; I believe the parts of the ISS you can see make for an interesting juxtaposition. While the file has some imperfections at full magnification, remember that it's a 20-year-old digital photo. I tracked down and uploaded NASA's original version (minus the white bar at the bottom with the number string) so we could have the best quality copy. If it passes, this would be a good candidate for featured picture this September 11th, since that will be the image's 20th anniversary.

- Oppose — There isn't anything wrong with this picture. It's also not merely a lower-resolution copy of a file we now have a better copy of. While it's pretty much the same shot as the other, the conditions are different enough that the two pictures tell different stories. (They were also taken seven years apart.)

- Reason
- This is the first time I've nominated at FPC so I am not very familiar with the criteria. I've reviewed them and the only one I'm uncertain about is the resolution, but since this is a historical picture and there's no way to get a better resolution image, I think this qualifies. It's currently only used in one article, in the Bahasu Malaya Wikipedia, but I don't think that's a criterion.
