Harbor Kingstown edit

 
Original - Photochrom of Kingstown harbor, the main port for Saint Vincent
Reason
Durova really should get credit for this nomination, but I figured since this was sitting in the restoration collection, it should be nominated. Highly encyclopedic, for one. I only added it to the articles below today because it was sitting in the aforementioned collection of images.

  • Comment Source link is broken. Durova273 featured contributions 02:58, 2 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    • Oppose Source link is still broken. Durova273 15:54, 7 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak support It's ok, not the best photochrom we have and not a staggeringly good image to start with, but enough EV to carry it, I think. --mikaultalk 13:04, 2 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support - Very good resolution for such kind of image. - Damërung ...ÏìíÏ..._Ξ_ . --  15:15, 2 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose Don't see the EV for this. A recent photo could illustrate the articles much better. Makeemlighter (talk) 04:02, 5 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Obvious encyclopedic value and a great historical image. No recent photo could ever replace this or come close. Ottava Rima (talk) 13:05, 5 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - A recent photo. ceranthor 18:26, 5 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    • Okay, so that photo is pretty bad. But I stand by my assertion. I fail to see what the historic photo gives us that a good recent one would not. It's not like either article has a history section. Makeemlighter (talk) 22:17, 5 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • I don't know whether it's possible to still make changes at this point, but I'd like to withdraw my oppose. The nominator addressed the concerns at the end of the candidacy period. Durova275 23:28, 9 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    • Not... exactly. But I fixed it now.In any case, there's a whole lot of problems with this nomination: The image is downsampled, and, perhaps more importantly, is located in a completely different continent. I've done a restoration and restarted the nomination with the images accurately placed in Dublin, Ireland. Shoemaker's Holiday (talk) 08:33, 10 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
