Scope	Nominated as the most valued image on Commons within the scope: Leaf detail of Eriobotrya japonica
Used in	Global usage en:Loquat
Review (criteria)	Comment Wouldn't "leaf detail of Eriobotrya japonica" be better for the scope? The picture doesn't show an entire leaf. Walter Siegmund (talk) 23:31, 6 January 2009 (UTC) Have done as suggested. Elucidate (parlez à moi) Ici pour humor 19:32, 7 January 2009 (UTC)  Support With updated scope, I support. JalalV (talk) 12:22, 10 January 2009 (UTC)  Question What makes this scope interesting for this particular species? What is specific on the picture of the species? --Eusebius (talk) 12:38, 10 January 2009 (UTC)  Oppose I find the scope too constricted. Should then every plant species have a scope for its leaf details? I think not. Lycaon (talk) 23:11, 11 January 2009 (UTC)  Support This is a notable species that is used for fruit production. Also, I would support it with a scope change to genus or family since it appears to satisfy the criteria with an enlarged scope. I was not able to find any comparable leaf detail photographs for the family despite its size and importance of several species, e.g., apple, quince, hawthorn, and serviceberry. Walter Siegmund (talk) 17:47, 12 January 2009 (UTC)  Comment The surface of the leaf should be identified in the description, e.g., upper surface, if that is the correct description. Walter Siegmund (talk) 18:02, 12 January 2009 (UTC) This has been done. Elucidate (parlez à moi) Ici pour humor 20:09, 17 January 2009 (UTC)  Oppose Could not find a convincing answer to my questions: I don't see why a close-up of this particular species is valuable. --Eusebius (talk) 22:03, 12 January 2009 (UTC) It is a notable species that is used for fruit production. Leaf details have been photographed for only a handful of species, as far as I've been able to determine. The best was Image:Tulip_Tree_Liriodendron_tulipifera_Leaf_Underside_Closeup_3008px.jpg. More typical was File:Wet_Leaf.jpg, an attractive image but not valuable for illustrating plant physiology. Walter Siegmund (talk) 05:00, 13 January 2009 (UTC) Result: 2 support, 2 oppose => undecided. Lycaon (talk) 01:14, 18 January 2009 (UTC)
