 Info This image is the present VI, now rediscussed because there is a new challenger in a new MVR.

Here is the first review, for information:
I have changed the scope from "Skylines in Frankfurt" into "Frankfurt am Main" -- Der Wolf im Wald (talk) 15:15, 29 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support I think it is the best picture we have for this scope. --Eusebius (talk) 15:33, 29 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    •  Comment For this town, I imagine it would be appropriate to have an image showing the Main River if possible (I noticed 1 or 2, for instance, but better examples may exist)? --Myrabella (talk) 14:37, 30 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
      • In my opinion, the second image you point out fails to show the city centre. The first one is taken from a skyscraper in the city centre, thus giving only a partial vue of it. It's a multi-criteria optimization problem now: is it more relevant to show a full view of the visually prominent skyscraper zone of the city or to show the river? Feel free to set up an MVR if you deem it necessary. --Eusebius (talk) 06:59, 1 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • You have brought out the issue very clearly. I tend to incline towards the second option: an image showing the river (it is Frankfurt am Main, after all :-), some "old" buildings (the town has a long history) and an evocation of "Mainhattan" (even only partially) could well epitomize the scope too. What would you think of File:Skyline Frankfurt.jpg, by Der Wolf im Wald too? --Myrabella (talk) 11:52, 3 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
It sure is interesting. --Eusebius (talk) 12:50, 3 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
