Migrant hawker - Aeshna mixta, male
  •  Comment I don't think so. Recently here were promoted a mushroom. Two very similar pictures of one mushroom. Both this and this. So, why should my other one be delisted? It's even another species and not the same as the pictures of the mushroom. --Hockei (talk) 15:11, 23 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Note that I didn't vote for the second nomination of that mushroom; I voted neutral, for the same reason as here. I never support two similar images both being FP. If we feature two images of the same species/building/landscape etc. that don't complement each other (i.e. a night shot and a day shot, or a male and a female of a particular species, or two massively different angles/compositions, would be fine for me) then we can't really say we are promoting the 'most valuable pictures from all others' as the guidelines say. Instead we should identify which is the better of those two images, keep that, and delist the other. Most FPC voters seem to disagree with me though, and your image is going to pass anyway without my support. Cmao20 (talk) 18:09, 23 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
