This is coming up for picture of the day, but at (1024x481, 104 KB) it doesn't seem to fulfill our size requirements is at the low end of our size requirements, but suffers from jpg artifacts (check the edges of the high rises) and lack of detail (close in on the promenade area). Detail of one of the problem areas added.
Strong keep - 1) a beautiful image, 2) it does meet the requirements which say at least 1000px in height or width, 3) barely missing a current technical requirement (not that this image does) shouldn't be a sufficient reason to delist, i.m.o. Debivort21:30, 10 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delist Marginal on size, has compression artifacts. We can have higher standards for subjects which are easily accessible. —Dgiestc16:03, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Comment The fact is, it meets size requirements. Saying it's too small, even for a panorama, shouldn't matter. Joe23:22, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Comment The requirements are arbitrarily chosen and aren't set in stone; expectation for wikipedia's "very best" panoramas is much higher than for other images. --frothTC02:01, 12 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
KeepMy Two Cents:-- I think delisting a photo from the past is like taking a gold medal from an athlete who won it in the 1936 Olympics because a modern athlete has performed better. Once you win an award, you should be able to keep it. -- Mactographer12:16, 14 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I disagree. Featured represents the best Wikipedia can offer, and that standard can (and should) increase over time. Considering delisting is giving the photo a frank judgement based on current standards, i.e. if it was nominated now, would it pass? I don't think it would. Trebor19:04, 15 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
