Sens de circulation edit

Illustrative image from Driving on the left or right. Good summary of which side of the road is used around the world.

Nominate and support. - Billpg 11:15, 4 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose - A list of countries would be more informative, the image is very plain. Not pleasing to the eye. HighInBC 14:17, 4 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Weak oppose. Somehow it's just too simple. I really don't know how that could be improved (maybe a larger image?). It certainly points out which countries drive on the left and which countries drive on the right, but not much else. Maybe the information of which countries drive on what side of the road just isn't best depicted in a map form, because there's little correlation between the geography and the side of the road the country drives on. I guess what I'm trying to say is what HighInBC said about this information being best displayed in a list form, rather than a map form. --Tewy 18:26, 4 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Weak oppose. There's nothing wrong with the image, but it's just the information from a list compiled into a simple map. Not striking or Wikipedia's best work. Redquark 18:48, 4 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Weak oppose. It is a valuable addition to the article. Nevertheless, it does not really resemble the very best in Wikipedia. It is just a nice illustration, not being particularily striking. Mikeo 21:15, 4 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. There is a geographic aspect to driving on the left or right, as countries driving laws tend to cluster. Look at the blue cluster in South-East Africa. Most of those are former British colonies, except Mozambique which was a colony of Portugal. This country is left-driving because all of her neighbours are left-driving. Elsewhere in Africa, former British colonies of Gambia, Sierra Leone, Nigeria and Ghana are all right-driving as they are surrounded by right-driving nations.

Weak oppose, per Mikeo. Image:Driving standards historic.png is a more informative image (but still not very pretty) - Jack (talk) 22:33, 4 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per Jack. Informational content is superceded by other image and it's simply not striking enough. - Mgm|^(talk) 10:17, 5 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose informative and encyclopedic, but not really striking enough to be a FP. —Jared Hunt September 6, 2006, 13:01 (UTC)
Comment I also would suggest renaming this image as well. —Jared Hunt September 6, 2006, 13:13 (UTC)
Oppose, featured pictures should not have been made exclusively with the flood tool. --Dhartung | Talk 08:45, 6 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
