  •  Info Main Shiva Temple (Jyestheswara Temple) at the western enclosure of the sprawling, ancient Wangath Temple complex located in a remote valley deep in the Kashmir Himalayas. The temple complex may be over two millennia old; the current structure (pictured) dates to the 8th century CE. Image created and uploaded by Basavaraj K.

  •  Support Nominated over a month ago by me, but did not pass for lack of required support votes—perhaps I didn’t correct the dust spot as swiftly as I should have, or didn’t explain its unique historical and geographical context. In any case, nominating a second time. -- UnpetitproleX (Talk) 21:11, 16 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose Please read this recent discussion about re-nominations. It looks like the previous candidature did not gather much enthusiasm. We like diversity at FPC, so please don't renominate too quickly the same images until they get promoted due to tiredness. I did not support the first time, because I find the colors washed out and the light dull. Sorry -- Basile Morin (talk) 02:03, 18 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    It was nominated a month and a half ago, and a big dust spot was pointed out. Since the image had already been featured on wikipedia, where the dust spot had managed to go unnoticed, I was slightly late to remove it. A misspelling in the filename was also highlighted, which I could fix only after the nom was over. I'm not trying to manipulate the process to get the image promoted, I apologize if that's what it came across as. UnpetitproleX (Talk) 12:00, 18 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The dust spot was notified on September 26, and corrected only 2 days later, on September 28. Then, from this date until October 4, end of the voting period, 6 days passed, with just 2 supporters. This low level of participation illustrates the moderate enthusiasm, in my opinion. I don't think the reviewers abstained from voting because of the spelling mistake. That's usually not a prohibitive factor (there have been similar cases in the past). Thus this re-nomination sounds a bit like "only two supports missing the first time, maybe a second round will be more generous" :-) Basile Morin (talk) 13:30, 18 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
