A Rainbow Lorikeet

I think that this picture is of good quality. It has been fixed at the Graphic Lab.

No article yet.

Comments:

The image has improved quite a bit since I last saw it, but the overall lack of sharpness of the bird is something I fear, can not be fixed, not even by the Graphics Lab wizards. Also the background I find a bit disturbing. Lycaon 11:48, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I see... Thanks anyway! — H92 (t · c · no) 12:35, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
In addition to the lack of sharpness of the bird, I would like to see the entire bird, including its tail, in a featured picture. Also, this image is not currently in any articles, and both Rainbow Lorikeet and Lorikeet are already well endowed with Lorikeet images. Enuja 19:01, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
How can the use of the image decide whether it should be featured or not? Btw, it's uploaded on Commons, I planned to use it in articles in other languages. But thanks for your opinions! — H92 (t · c · no) 12:35, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
From Wikipedia:Featured picture criteria, Criterion 5 states "Adds value to an article and helps readers to understand an article. An image's encyclopedic value is given priority over its artistic value." If it's not in an article then it can't add value to an article; it would therefore not meet this criteria, which automatically precludes it from becoming a FP. And well done on uploading to Commons - that's the preferred way to upload. --jjron 17:54, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
