  •  Oppose Good image, but not enough for FP. --Karelj 19:34, 11 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose Technically OK, but doesn't show anything of the ordinary and is only used on 4 pages outside commons. -Hebster 17:54, 12 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    •  Info - Being used in an article is not a requirement for promotion -- Alvesgaspar 18:39, 12 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
      •  Comment - Nope but it's an easy way to "meassure" relevance or value (those two words are the words used the guidelines though i personally thinkt that interestingness; adopted from Flickr; is more convenient). How much this should weigh in compared to the technical aspects, must be an individual issue though. --Hebster 19:22, 12 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
        •  Comment Well if an image is used in a lot pf places it might mean it's valuable (but that's not a gurantee, it might be a crappy image just because no one has found the better one because that is uncategorized with a silly name or for other reasons), but the opposite is certainly not true. It can be an image that has just been uploaded and simply not being found by projects yet even though it might be extremely valuable and useful. Making an image a FP is actually a good way to get more usage of a good image. /Daniel78 19:44, 12 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
          •  Comment I really wasn't planning to start an discussion about weither usage should weigh or how to interpret it, though i think it's an interesting topic but this isn't the right place for it. Voting for FP images will always be based on a lot of subjectivity, because we have different focal areas. I would personally never support photos of flowers, because i find them incredible boring (this is not to offend anyone!), but - on the other hand - i won't oppose them either, because good flower photos - especially macro - can requre some skill and technique. My main contribution to commons are photos from my work-place or related to my work-place, because this put me in some uniqe situations, where i have the ability to contribute with photos, many people don't get the chance to shoot. When i opposed to this photo, it was because i thought it was a stright out-of-the-box portrait, with no particularity what so ever and i used the usage-count to emphasis this.
