  • Support but wish the cube was somewhere else or the image where taken from a different angle, it's casting a shadow on the left crystal structure. --I′d※<3※Ɵɲɛ (talk) 22:54, 7 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

    • Comment Are we going to have every single element from hereon featured on the Main Page? How many more do we have to go? These “element” pictures are coming through rather frequently. Perhaps we should consider having these be FP status and being on the relevant FP gallery pages, but limit their being featured on the Main Page to no more than once per week. If we send a pack of these through over the course of a week or two, are those responsible for choosing what goes onto the Main Page trying to spread these things out(?); or do they go into a queue and appear in the order they win FP status?

      • They are generally in order, but Howcheng (talk · contribs) does spread them out. If you have concern about repetative images hitting the main page, he's the man to talk to. Our job here is just to judge what's worthy of FP status. J Milburn (talk) 02:09, 8 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
        • Good. As long as someone is using an editorial eye for excessive Main Page repetition, we can promote all of Alchemist’s fabulous contributions as a volunteer Wikipedian. He does professional work that belongs on those Alfa Aesar posters hanging in half the wet labs in the nation. Greg L (talk) 02:14, 8 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
          • Howcheng works very hard to make sure the PotD is varied and similar images are spaced out. Thanks to him, that's not an issue. =) Adam Cuerden (talk) 06:01, 8 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
