  • Which rule you are talking about? Is there such a rule: "An FP can't never be replaced by a version even if it is better in aspects." See, our intention is to showcase our best examples to public at Commons:Featured pictures, updating the list frequently. The traffic to Commons:Featured pictures is much higher compared to any other galleries or categories so less chance that people find a better file for their use if it is in a generic gallery (a pity). I'm concerned if other intentions override our primary intention (as I stated above) which is more prominent nowadays. JKadavoor Jee 06:11, 27 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • The problem is that this is not a nomination for replacement; such nominations should be started in the delisting section. Otherwise, we would have two versions of the same image side by side, both FPs, which is not allowed. --King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 10:32, 27 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • We don't have a D&R format as in EN:FP (They are also preferring a normal nomination nowadays). So the procedure here is to make feature and delist request simultaneously or to make a delist request after the completion of the new FP request. See the vote of Carschten below. I know this type of nominations are difficult to close by the boat; but we've a lot of experienced "closers" here. Correct me if I'm wrong. JKadavoor Jee 12:00, 27 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • I stand corrected; I did not notice that a simultaneous delisting nomination was going on. Of course, based on the merits of the image I  Support, if and only if the delisting nomination succeeds. --King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 00:35, 28 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • However, I think a D&R is still preferable at EN:FP; perhaps it should be listed in the main section, but should still proceed as a D&R. They make sense on EN:FP because of the EV requirement, and in most cases there can only be one FP in a particular scope. However at Commons, unless the original no longer satisfies the criteria, we typically accept two FPs of the same subject as long as they were not made at the same time by the same person. But for re-edits like this D&R still makes sense on Commons. --King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 00:40, 28 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • "However, I think a D&R is still preferable at EN:FP". Yes; but EN:FP is manually processed (closed), so lot of room for any type of complicated processing. We can vote in any way like Delist only if any other alternative is Featured, etc. Here the bot only understand standard parameters; and chances that some make any arguments if the closer take a selective decision on his knowledge and experience. I too think only the delist request below is enough if we have parameters like delist and replace. Hope people will agree with the closer in this case.
