Image:Tsunami by hokusai 19th century.jpg, delisted[edit]
Info The file name is incorrect. This is not a tsunami. There are comments on Image_talk:Tsunami_by_hokusai_19th_century.jpg that suggest it be renamed, and had a request to do so. We now have Image:The Great Wave off Kanagawa.jpg, which is appropriately named. Also, I see that the "renamed" file is actually a newer, higher version, overwriting the original version of "tsunami". The colors are also slightly different. In my opinion, Image:The Great Wave off Kanagawa.jpg is by far the better quality version (and correctly named). I suggest we delist Image:Tsunami by hokusai 19th century.jpg, and making Image:The Great Wave off Kanagawa.jpg the featured picture.

Delist per Johnbod. This is better than a reproduction, but the low resolution here does not make this a featured picture. -Aude (talk | contribs) 01:00, 1 October 2007 (UTC)- Delist - Agree. Please refer to the new FP nomination above - Alvesgaspar 20:48, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

- Delist As above. --Digon3 talk 23:50, 23 September 2007 (UTC)
- Delist as this is not a great-quality scan. But nb the other is a different woodcut, a modern reproduction of the Hokusai using newly-cut blocks. I don't believe this should be an FP on grounds of lack of authenticity, and misleading people. Johnbod 13:11, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
Keep Until a better version of this image (not the later reproductions) is found (renaming of this one would be appropriate meanwhile). I am bemused that people are willing to vote images as being 'amongst the most valuable on commons (or wikipedia for that matter)' on the basis of some idea of perfection, rather on the actual value of the image. Surely this copy of the original is of more value than a reproduction (just as well you guys do not deal in antiques :-) --Tony Wills 12:14, 28 September 2007 (UTC)- Keep per Tony Wills - Moravice 20:11, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
- Keep like Tony I find that an image of the original is more important then copies/reproduction images Gnangarra 00:28, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
result: 8 Delist, 3 Keep, 0 neutral => delisted. Simonizer 20:41, 4 October 2007 (UTC)
