Yann (talk) 18:58, 3 June 2009 (UTC)  Comment - I prefer the other one. Better expression and larger picture. -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 09:28, 17 June 2009 (UTC) OK, I set up a MVR.

The value is in how well it shows the subject I suppose. Both images have very similar merit, both have almost identical description pages (both have minimal information, but probably sufficient for VI). I propose that we nominate these two images as a set, full face + profile, each shows a different aspect, together they show how he looked (although I would tend to crop the full-face portrait so his head was about the same size in both). (I wonder what he would have thought about the time we waste on Commons "The machine enslaves, the hand sets free. —Lanza del Vasto" ;-) --Tony Wills (talk) 10:24, 22 June 2009 (UTC) Scores: 1.

Stenotus binotatus

View Nominated by: Alvesgaspar (talk) on 2009-05-18 12:53 (UTC) Scope: Stenotus binotatus  Comment File:Stenotus.binotatus.jpg seems to depict this critter in a more natural environment, on a leaf. In Danish this genus is called Blad-Tæge, which means Leaf-Tick, sorta gives a hint why. the nominated image is probably technical superior to the competitors, but I am not convinced it is the most valuable, so I am setting up an MVR. --Slaunger (talk) 21:25, 21 May 2009 (UTC)  Comment I can't decide. This image has much higher resolution that shows tiny hairs on the wing covers, but has a harsh shadow and an artificial background. The criteria are not helpful deciding how to weigh these factors. I note that the other image depicts the asymmetric posterior spots better (white banding is more distinct for the right spot). Is the difference in color well within the range for this species or is one more typical? Walter Siegmund (talk) 19:59, 26 May 2009 (UTC)  Comment Bugguide says, "overall light greenish or yellowish; front of head black, top of head green; pronotum with two large black spots shaped like elongated semicircles with a straight edge anteriorly".[1] The other image shows large black spots on the pronotum; on this individual, the spots are rather small. But the other image shows some black on the top of the head which is not mentioned in the bugguide description. I remain undecided. Walter Siegmund (talk) 20:30, 26 May 2009 (UTC)  Oppose Basically I think this is mis-identified. I also found the id description linked by Walter above (I hadn't looked for the reviews at that stage). Looking at the id description, other examples, and similar species, I really don't think this is binotatus. Those spots on the pronotum should be elongated not basically circular, and the nose (front of head) should be black not green. --Tony Wills (talk) 11:36, 22 June 2009 (UTC)  Info -- My source [Michael Chinery (2207). Insects of Britain and Western Europe, A & C Black] reads: both sexs yellow and black at first; with age male becomes orange and black and female becomes greyish and black. 2 black pronotal spots always present. The illustration in the book shows a very similar greenish bug with two small circular spots. I think both images show the same species. -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 22:37, 22 June 2009 (UTC)  Comment I am willing to be convinced, but so far all I can find leads me to believe this example does not have the typical markings and colouration for the species. Perhaps it is from very early in the season and the markings as well as the colour change with age. --Tony Wills (talk) 12:24, 23 June 2009 (UTC) Scores: 1. Bug May 2009-1.jpg: -1 2.
