Neutral What has this Buccinum undatum to do with the soap? Some Urtica dioica would have been better to illustrate that the soap was made of them as you say in the description. --SehLax 16:08, 21 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Well you could also argue - was has a snail and a stone to do with the soap? I guess you could call it artistic freedom, I liked the blue color close to the yellow soap. Besides you are right that a couple of leaves of Urtica dioica would be illustrative, they are just a bit difficult to handle :-) Regards Malene Thyssen 11:58, 22 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  - Well, the Buccinum undatum is the snail, I had just forgotten the English word snail :-) I have nothing against these little flowers, but the combination of the snail and the soap looks just too artificially to me. Or maybe it's the composition as a w= Thyssen]] 22:15, 22 November 2005 (UTC)
    - - I don't want to look like a smartass, but the shell is a Lambis lambis and definately not a Buccinum undatum. I used to collect shells so that's how I know this. Cheers, Tbc 16:09, 25 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

On a sunny day you could make a much brighter picture of this waterfall. But if you ever travelled in Iceland, you would know that clouds of the kind shown are quite typical for this area. This photo immediately makes you believe that Dettifoss is situated in Iceland, and not in Italy or Spain. --Roger McLassus 12:10, 11 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Image:Floppy disk internal diagram.svg, Featured

Nominate

– I don't know, I think this is fairly clear but I'm not sure what your diagram standards are. This is just a little drawing I made illustrating the major internal components of a 3.5" floppy disk. I tried to do it almost as a "film-strip" removing the cover of the disk. It is pretty simple, but maybe that is an asset for something like this — my goal was for it to be understandable by a small child, or someone who had no computer experience.

Neutral good documentation, but the image quality also looks like 1973 ... Maybe you could sharpen it a bit? --SehLax 14:07, 4 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Support - Great subject, great effect of degraded image quality (volunteer?) - Tvpm 15:22, 4 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Comment The poor quality is the result of the fact that this picture is more than thirty years old. At that time I could not afford an expensive camera, and I used half-pictures to safe space on film. Three decades also have their effect on a dia. But I think this is not the point. I nominated this picture not because of its technical brilliance but due to its historical value and its display of oriental life. If it were made in 1873 instead of 1973 it would not even have colours - but so what? Of course someone could sharpen ist (I myself have no experience with photo-processing) but I think this would reduce its authenticity. --Roger McLassus 16:45, 4 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

No, not the steam, why such sarcasm ;-) ? The composition and the colours are really outstanding.

Neutral if I remember correctly the light-design of the Eiffel tower is protected by french copyright law and thus every picture of the tower at night being used for commercial purpose needs permission (and they charge you money for that). So this picture might have to be removed from commons.

Oppose I agree it's an absurd law, but it has been discussed in the Village Pump and it does seem to exist. So my advice would be to delete this picture. If this is law, a court will have to uphold it. A judge is not allowed to set laws aside merely because he thinks they are ridiculous... But otherwise, I would support this picture. MartinD 10:22, 13 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I am french and I think this law only applies to the pictures where the eiffel tower is alone : here, there is Seine river, the bridge and some other buildings. --Fabien1309 20:07, 13 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
