  •  Oppose Sorry, I think the scope is too narrow as it appears to cover photographs of this particular Hong Kong ferry service only. A scope of "passenger ferry" would be more appropriate, but with such a scope this may not be the best example. --MichaelMaggs 08:40, 1 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    •  Comment I agree this scope may be too narrow, and I agree it's probably not the best example at the broadest scope, but a middle-ground scope may suffice: say Passenger Ferries in Hong Kong? Powers 14:33, 1 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support Star Ferry is a famous service in Hong Kong. I think it's fine to have a scope of itsown. --Lerdsuwa 09:48, 6 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose I think this image fulfills criteria 1-3. The scope is relevant. This ferry service transports 70000 people a day and is well known, which is substantiated by several Wikimedia articles. It is also IMO marginally the best illustration of the subject, and it illustrates it well. However it does not use the {{Information}} template on the image page (or a suitable variation thereof). The date of the photo is not specified as a date field and the EXIF indicates the photo was taken on Jan 1, 2001 @ 0:00 (UTC), which I quite frankly do not beleive is true (crit 4). The image also lacks geocoding (crit 5). If crit 4 and 5 is fixed do contact me on my talk page, and I would be willing to change my vote to support. -- Slaunger 21:30, 6 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support I believe scope is fine as Star Ferry and for that this is a good image. --|EPO| da: 16:27, 11 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
