Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Pyrocumulus clouds in Yellowstone

 
Original - A pyrocumulus, or, literally, fire cloud, is a dense cumuliform cloud associated with fire or volcanic activity. The image depicts pyrocumulus clouds created by a massive wildfire in Yellowstone National Park. Yellowstone National Park is prone to wildfires, which are often started by lightning. The biggest wildfire in an American national park was in Yellowstone in 1988.

Thank you for helping me with caption. I addressed the color issues in the edit.--Mbz1 (talk) 20:53, 17 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Btw important spelling error in caption - you have stated that the fires are started by Lighting which I assume is wrong - did you mean Lightning?? I don't want to edit as I'm not 100% sure what you wanted to put... Gazhiley (talk) 11:57, 18 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I'm pretty close to 100% sure that lightning is what's meant, so I've changed it, but please revert me if I'm wrong. --Avenue (talk) 13:59, 22 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Well, the image is used in two important articles: Pyrocumulus cloud and Yellowstone National Park. It adds EV to both of them. In Pyrocumulus cloud it depicts not just one, but few clouds, and is the highest resolution image of the phenomenon. In Yellowstone National Park it is used in the section that describes wild fires that are common in Yellow stone. I hope I answered your question. Please ask more, if you have some.--Mbz1 (talk) 04:00, 19 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • Note: Factsontheground and Mbz1 have been engaged in bitter editing disputes for weeks, and are still actively in conflict. This is Factsontheground's first edit at FPC. --Avenue (talk) 14:54, 22 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Yes that's right. Just a minute before factsontheground opposed the nomination the user left that message at my talk page. Still I see some positive developments here. After I complained about wikihounding, the user voted on few more FP nominations :) I hope the user will become a regular here, and it surely will be the time spent better compare to what the user is doing now :)--Mbz1 (talk) 15:14, 22 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Not promoted Consensus is, again, not clear for promotion at this point. --upstateNYer 04:16, 26 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
