Support - There is already a Featured Picture of the ceiling of this mausoleum, and I think it's quite a good picture, but it's a detail picture concentrating on the center, whereas this shows all the tilework. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 09:06, 24 December 2016 (UTC)- Support --Martin Falbisoner (talk) 10:04, 24 December 2016 (UTC)

- You're welcome! -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 11:37, 24 December 2016 (UTC)
- Thanks for the additional info. This was built in 1935? I assume the design is heavily influenced by earlier styles well-known to the archaeologist/architect who designed it, because I definitely wouldn't have guessed 20th century for this style. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 11:40, 24 December 2016 (UTC)

Oppose The crop is a bit awkward, and the off-center positioning made me think it was a heptagon until I counted the sides! -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 21:51, 25 December 2016 (UTC)- Oppose Per KoH, off-center positioning doesn't work so well for this image IMO -- Thennicke (talk) 04:36, 26 December 2016 (UTC)
Comment - I take the point. It's a perfectly valid point of view. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 10:14, 26 December 2016 (UTC)
